New Meizu MX4 could cost about $320, may be launched in August

Although we were expecting it to be announced in March, Meizu’s next-generation flagship smartphone, the MX4, will most likely be released in the second half of the year.

Chinese website 163.com is reporting that the new smartphone could be available starting early August. Like the MX3 before it, the Meizu MX4 should be quite affordable, despite the fact that it will offer high-end features. 163.com has it that prices for the MX4 may start at around $320 (2,000 CNY in China).

We previously heard that the MX4 would have two variants: one sporting a 5.5-inch display with 1536 x 2560 pixels, and another one featuring a 5-inch screen with 1080 x 1920 pixels. Most probably, the latter is the one that will cost $320. At least one of the two models - if not both - should come with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 processor, 3GB of RAM, 5MP front-facing camera, 16MP rear camera, and Flyme 4.0 OS (based on Android). Nothing is confirmed at this point, though, so for now we can’t be sure of anything.

There aren’t any images to show the MX4 at the moment (the handset pictured above is the MX3 - in black and white).

Meizu previously stated that it would launch smartphones in the US starting this year, and we’re expecting the MX4 to be among them.
