Meizu has an obsession with the details of the product design company, and doesn’t believe there will be many people opposing. From J.Wong to ordinary engineers, we can find a dedication for the product in their daily work.

Meizu is the same, Anson said that they also have this in common, as the m3 note ID is of the main design, he told us, because of Meizu’s dedication, to make the m3 note become so well.


Many people first saw the m3 note, and because of the texture, it was mistaken for a flagship product. M3 note’s color values achieves this accomplishment, from the preliminary ID design team’s Location: "mature technology used to create a color value comparable to a flagship phone. Undeniable metal body gives your phone a better texture, so they set out in this regards to m3 note’s transformation.


In the eyes of R&D personnel, the phone's "look" is a big deal, it contains numerous widgets. To do a good feel, good texture, using a metal body alone is not enough.


To make the whole mellow, feel better, the m3 note specifically uses non-standard 0.8mm 2.5D glass thickness, the fingerprint module had to be a re-molded design to make fit. In that piece of glass there is only a minor 0.1mm changes to thickness, surely someone will think this is dispensable, blindly increasing the cost of changes, but Anson solemnly corrected this idea: "increase the thickness of the 2.5D effect can be done better and having a more smooth feel, this is our comparison of multiple proofing conclusion. Meizu having to change the design that is often the case, the final analysis of the product.


Anson also revealed that for the side key to be enhanced, they are specially designed to highlight the groove. Given the high groove to bring light yield and cost issues, the supplier is not willing to do it, but later because of the insistence of the design team, and ultimately to implement this design.


The removal of excellent appearance, the m3 note’s endurance is one of the highlights. We know that in order for a better life it must do two things, first is to reduce power consumption, and the second is to enhance the capacity of the battery. Flyme resolved this problem by applying the former and the new Helio P10 chip, while the latter relies on m3 note’s "belly" the 4100mah battery. This is Meizu’s first time ever using the maximum capacity of the battery. In order to hold this large battery, they have made improvements inside the phone in many places. For the screen to switch to more advanced technology making the screen under the premise of quality assurance thinner; the cover also increases the CNC process, a large battery to free up enough space.


Conversation draws to a close, we gave Anson out a long-buried in the heart of the problem: m3 note's price: 799, certainly there is not much profit margins, coupled with the rising cost of the process will not lead to a phone having some work places being compromised? Anson replied without hesitation: " No! Compromising profit margins is not Meizu products work style. The all-metal body placed under the m3 note, but should be seen as related technology advances result of cost reduction, rather than reducing quality and design being freed up, "he finally began to speak a very positive tone, with the added sentence:"m3 note in design and workmanship are of the same standard as the flagship, this is for sure, " said Anson in the conversation, it is in direct contact with the Meizu designers to share tenacity and contests. Also as the m note’s brand meaning, young people should spend a little money for better products, the young does not mean low quality. Today, this spirit has a new heritage, it is the m3 note.  Anson, is the main designer and the person in charge. Who led the team to complete the MX5, PRO5 ID design and process design, involved in the development of models have MX2, MX3, MX4, MX4 Pro.
