Review: Meizu M5, M5s, And M5 Note

Gabe Pérez

11 May, 2017

As a sequel to the M3 series, the M5 series looks quite promising on the surface. For just around $100, it appears that you can get a well-built, reasonably functional smartphone.

So, does this perception reflect reality? If yes, are Meizu’s offerings superior to the competition? Let’s find out in Android Authority's comprehensive review of the Meizu M5, M5s, and M5 Note!

Pros:

Super affordable
Premium hardware with great build quality
Flyme's core experience remains top-notch
Fingerprint readers are nice to have
microSD card expansion

Cons:

Poor performance
Inconsistent battery life
Global software experience needs attention
Average camera performance
No US 4G LTE support
