Yep, thats the headline here Meizu, after years in the smartphone business, have finally added a function which other phone makers have had since the start to time!

The new firmware also allows MX owners to use the phone’s proximity sensor as a shutter button to take photos. While were not sure the function is actually a useful one the idea of taking photos just by swiping a finger over the phone certainly is a new one!
