Chinese manufacturer, Meizu, has not been a common name in the smartphone market in recent times. This is probably because it releases few devices annually and the company’s phone business is currently suffering. However, it was quite surprising to see that Meizu has a lot of patents related to popular Wi-Fi 6. According to the list of companies with Wi-Fi 6 patents, the Chinese manufacturer is in the top 10 with 41 patents.
