The Meizu Note 16 and Meizu Note 16 Pro are slightly surprising designs. They look like flagships, although they are not flagships. In addition, the Pro model looks a bit more modest than the basic one... All contradictions? Let's take a look at them!
Meizu Note 16
Meizu Note 16 is a simpler, but better-looking of the new ones. It has spectacular colors, as well as a nicely decorated camera frame - a bit like the flagship Honors. Despite its elegant appearance, it is rather a budget model, with a 6.78-inch IPS screen with Full HD+ resolution and 120 Hz refresh, reaching a brightness of just over a thousand nits. The heart of the smartphone is the Unisoc T8200 processor, supported by 8+128 or 12+256 GB memory. Power is provided by a 6600 mAh battery with 40-watt charging. The smartphone has a 50-megapixel camera with background blurring, a mini-jack and a side fingerprint reader, and the inside of the housing is protected against dust and moisture at the IP65 level. The 8+128 GB version costs 799 yuan, and 12+256 GB - 999 yuan. After conversion, it's 112-139 dollars.

Meizu Note 16 Pro
Meizu Note 16 Pro - as the name suggests - should be better than the base model - and in many ways it is. However, it is more modestly styled and has a smaller battery - 6200 mAh, but with faster, 80-watt charging. Better, because it is AMOLED, there is also a 6.78-inch screen, still with Full HD+ resolution, but with a refresh rate of 144 Hz and brightness up to 1600 nits. There is a hole in the screen for an 8-megapixel selfie camera, while on the back there is a set of 50-megapixel main camera with an 8-megapixel wide-angle. The heart of this model is the Qualcomm Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 processor. You can choose a variant with 8+256 GB and 16+512 GB memory at prices - respectively - 1499 and 2099 yuan. This is the equivalent of 209-292 dollars.
