Introduction
Meizu offers great phones for a good price. The global/international phones are a bit more expensive than their Chinese equals. But offer you a bit more for the money.
If you are looking to buy a Meizu in Europe, this is the topic you have to read first.

The Meizumart
Not so long ago, the only way to purchase a global/international Meizu phone was by ordering it from the Meizumart, and well that was costly, but most of the time not possible. As the phone weren't in stock. So luckily, that has changed now.

For further information on the Meizumart, may be found here: The Meizumart

Phone Versions
The global/international phones always end with the letter “H”.
Like for the Meizu Mx5 the one you want is the: M575H.
And the global/international Meizu Pro 5 is the: M576H.

Further information on the different models, may be found here:

Where to buy in Europe
It's possible to get the international phones from official Meizu agents, so in Europe it's:
  • Meizumart.it
  • Amazon: amazon.co.uk, amazon.de and amazon.fr
  • Meizumobiles.fr
  • TCCM
  • ... and so on

Further information on the named stores, check out the following links and notes.

Meizumart.it

Amazon

Meizumobiles.fr
The French meizumobiles.fr team speaks no English at all! So unless you are fine with french, don't buy from there.

TCCM
TCCM sells phones to mobile service providers in the east of Europe. TCCM phones are global/international phones with an additional limitation! It's not possible to install a Chinese Firmware on TCCM phones.

Before you buy a Meizu
There are a few things you have to do before buying a Meizu. Like 4G support, supported languages and so on. Meizu Phones do not support the important European 4G band, B20.

Support in Europe
Chinese Meizu phones have no support outside of China, that's a bummer. But this is exactly how the boss at Meizu wants it to be.
If you aren't so up to repair your phone yourself, then better get the global/international phone and take advantage of the 1 year warranty it offers you.

If you bought it from Amazon you may take use of the amazing Amazon customer care.
