Meizu 17 series new update adds 4K 60fps recording & other features

Chinese manufacturer, Meizu, released the Meizu 17 series about a month ago. Today, the company released the second software update for this series. This update brings a “full scene video image stabilization technology”. It improves the main camera, super wide-angle, front-end video image stabilization support, and more.

The Meizu 17 series has already made great achievements in imaging. The Meizu 17 Pro uses a full-scene AR professional imaging system. The main camera is the 64-megapixel Sony IMX686 sensor. It also has an 8-megapixel telephoto camera and a 32-megapixel ultra-wide-angle sensor.
