Meizu is working round the clock to launch its next flagship device, MX4. From what we’ve heard, this powerful phone will be unveiled in August when users will be able to choose between at least two different variants.

Most Meizu users don’t even realize which version of Android their phones are running. The reason is simple – they don’t have to.
