Direct-screen mobile phones have always been loved by many users for their outstanding use feel. In particular, direct-screen mobile phone products equipped with flagship processors have been very popular in the market. When it comes to the representative players among Android direct-screen mobile phones, we have to mention Meizu, which insists on direct-screen design.
Recently, Meizu launched the Meizu 21 Note, which is positioned in the mid-range direct-screen market, based on the original well-received Meizu 21 series, providing a new choice for users who like direct-screen mobile phones.
Design
In terms of appearance design, the Meizu21 Note continues Meizu’s consistent elegant style. The design language inherits the overall framework of the Meizu21 flagship model, bringing a very simple visual experience.
Although the Meizu21 Note adheres to a simple style in appearance design, the texture of its body is not simple at all. The front screen adopts a 1.75mm extremely narrow physical four-sided equilateral design, and the body adopts dual 2.5D micro-arc processing, which maintains a straight screen experience while providing a comfortable hand feel.
In the design of the back of the phone, the Meizu21 Note adopts the highly acclaimed unbounded camera Deco design and adds an Aicy smart ring, adding unique visual aesthetic features to the Meizu 21 Note.
One of the highlights of Meizu21 Note is that its Meizu White color scheme has Meizu’s iconic white front panel design, which is quite rare among current mobile phone products.
Screen
Although the Meizu 21 Note is positioned as a mid-range model, its screen configuration is relatively top-notch. Meizu 21 Note is equipped with a 6.78-inch 1.5K high-resolution flagship e-sports eye-protection direct screen, using the new U8 low-power eye-protection luminescent material, supporting 8T LTPO 1-144Hz full-scenario adaptive high-brush technology, and screen peak brightness Up to 5000nit, the global brightness is also 1600nit, which can fully meet the user needs and is not inferior to flagship screens.
The screen of Meizu 21 Note not only has a good display effect but also has excellent eye protection experience. Meizu 21 Note supports a series of eye protection functions such as low-brightness 2160Hz high-frequency PWM dimming, hardware-level low blue light, and DC-like dimming. At the same time, the global native SVM is <1, which can significantly reduce eye fatigue and discomfort, so the Meizu21 Note also received an S++ certification of visual health friendliness from the China Quality Certification Center.
Performance
The performance configuration of the Meizu 21 Note is quite powerful, with a performance combination of Snapdragon 8 Gen2 + 16GB LPDDR5X large memory + ultra-large VC heat dissipation. In addition to having a powerful hardware foundation, the Meizu21 Note also has excellent system optimization capabilities. Its built-in OneMind intelligent thinking engine can intelligently allocate CPU, memory, and other resources according to user habits and current application needs through intelligent scheduling to achieve a smoother user experience.
In terms of benchmark performance testing, the Meizu 21 Note was set to high-performance mode. Under the room temperature test environment, the measured AnTuTu V10 version scored 1,515,652, and the performance was in line with the positioning of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2.
In professional tests that reflect CPU and GPU performance respectively, in the CPU part, GeekBench 6.2 benchmark test, Meizu21 Note achieved high scores of 1932 points for single-core and 5369 points for multi-core.
In the 3DMark Solar Bay Light Tracing project, the Meizu 21 Note scored 5327; in the 3DMark Wild Life EXTREME project, the Meizu 21 Note scored 3729. The overall performance is quite strong.
It can be seen that the hardware quality of the Meizu 21 Note is very excellent, so how does it perform in actual gaming scenarios? After actual testing, in the room temperature scene, in the “Genshin Impact” Xumi City running test, the screen was set to extremely high quality + 60 frames. The measured average frame rate of the Meizu21 Note in 30 minutes was 60.2 frames, which can bring a full-frame gaming experience.
In terms of temperature, after actual measurement and the Xumi City running test in “Genshin Impact”, the maximum temperature point of the back cover of the Meizu 21 Note was 41.4 degrees Celsius, which is an excellent performance.
The reason why the Meizu21 Note has such an excellent heat dissipation performance is that the Meizu21 Note is equipped with a VC heat spreader with an ultra-large heat dissipation area, which enhances the uniform dispersion of heat, thereby effectively reducing the temperature of the processor and other key components. At the same time, the high thermal conductivity aviation aluminum metal middle frame used in the Meizu 21 Note can also further dissipate the heat generated inside while improving the structural strength of the Meizu 21 Note.
In terms of battery life, Meizu21 Note has a powerful combination of 5500 mAh large battery + 66W wired super fast charging. According to actual measurements, the phone can be charged from depleted to 78% in 30 minutes.
The Meizu21 Note is also equipped with a flagship imaging system. Its main camera is a 50-megapixel 1/1.5 6-inch flagship outsole camera. It also has OIS optical image stabilization technology + f/1.68 ultra-large aperture blessing. It is also equipped with a 13-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens that can meet the daily shooting needs of users. We have also taken some sample photos, you can take a look.
Flyme AlOS
As one of the first mobile phone manufacturers to embrace the AI era, the Meizu21 Note will be equipped with Flyme AlOS, bringing users powerful functions such as AI search, AI notes, AI games, and AI conversations. Currently, users can also use the Meizu 21 Note to experience powerful AI functions such as Aicy voice assistant, AI copywriting, and AI instant search.
Verdict
As a member of the Meizu 21 family, the Meizu 21 Note’s performance can be called the answer to the direct-screen mid-range mobile phone. While maintaining the classic straight-screen design, this phone incorporates innovative design to bring users the ultimate visual and holding experience.
In addition, the performance of the Meizu 21 Note should not be underestimated. The powerful processor and smooth AI system complement each other, bringing users an outstanding user experience. Meizu 21 Note not only meets the needs of direct-screen enthusiasts but also pursues excellence in details such as appearance and texture, making it a leader in the mid-range mobile phone market.
