Meizu mobile officially released the new Meizu 17 series this afternoon. It uses fully balanced design + next-generation engraving plating process. There are 3 colors available for purchase.
Design
The next-generation machine-engraved plating process with more than 20 layers of coating is used to make the back cover feel outstanding. The company called this ‘perhaps the most complex color fusion solution on smartphones’. At the same time, the Meizu 17 brings three colors: loose deep ink, 17-degree gray, and the matte AG fantasy unicorn.
In terms of weight, the Meizu 17 uses a 50:50 weight balance design: the body thickness is 8.5mm and the weight is 199g. In addition to the classic 0.5° arc offset design, the 50:50 weight balance design can also provide users with a better handheld experience. So it will avoid the top-heavy feeling of the phone.

At the same time, the entire Meizu 17 series uses Samsung’s customized SUPER AMOLED 90Hz screen with a resolution of 2340×1080. It supports DCI-P3 color gamut 100% coverage and retina color. The global peak brightness is 700 nits, the local peak brightness is 1100 nits, the pixel density is 390ppi, the contrast ratio is as high as 2000000: 1, and it supports blue eye protection. The latter can reduce harmful blue light by 37.5%. Also, it supports 0.15s Super mTouch screen fingerprint unlocking system.

In terms of core hardware, the Meizu 17 uses a Qualcomm 865 + UFS 3.1 solution. The chip has a frequency of up to 2.84GHz. The Adreno 650 GPU performance is greatly improved, and 8G + 128G / 256G UFS 3.1 high-speed flash memory is also standard. The Snapdragon 865 ‘may be the most powerful 5G flagship processor on the Earth’.
In addition, the Meizu 17 also has a redesigned 360° smart surround antenna.
The eID used by Meizu 17 allows it not only to identify individuals online but also to be used for proof of identity such as hotel check-in and airport boarding. It is worth noting that the smart card swipe technology has been applied for a patent.
