Meizu MX4 available for international orders starting at $449, shipping and taxes included

Earlier this month, Meizu announced its newest flagship smartphone - the MX4 - without providing details on its international availability. Fortunately, we now know that Meizu allows customers almost everywhere in the world to pre-order the handset, which should start shipping later this month.

The Meizu MX4 16 GB costs $449, while the Meizu MX4 32 GB can be yours for $489 (both are offered unlocked). The 64 GB version of the handset can’t be ordered for now. According to Meizu, these prices include shipping and import taxes in “certain markets” in North America, Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia and New Zealand. That's why they're considerably higher than the smartphone's prices available in China.
