A couple of weeks ago Meizu confirmed that it is working on a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 phone that comes with LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 4.0 storage. Today this phone, or perhaps one of many phones, was discovered by the AnTuTu team, who came up with a test result.

The phone, model number m2391, indeed features Qualcomm’s best mobile chip. This particular unit came configured with 12GB of RAM and 512GB of storage, although there should be other configurations.

This phone is believed to be the Meizu 20 Pro, based on unofficial rumors. We don’t yet know how many phones there will be in the 20-series – is this the flagship model or the middle one? Previously, we saw a Geekbench result from an m2392, which may have been a separate model or just a regional variant. It also had 12GB of RAM and ran Android 13.

Either way, this phone features a 120Hz display with a resolution of 1,080 x 2,400px. The size is still unknown, but the company has confirmed that its next phone will use a super-fast ultrasonic fingerprint reader (0.075 seconds to unlock, even if your finger is wet).

It also said that the phone will be equipped with 13 gaming-grade antennas, revealing which market segment the Meizu 20 Pro will be targeting. Furthermore, Meizu claims that the battery has been tested and will retain at least 80% of its original capacity. after 1,600 daily charging cycles.

As for the benchmark score, it looks mostly okay although the CPU and UX results are lower than expected for an 8 Gen 2 chipset. This isn’t a big surprise, the phone is expected to be unveiled in the spring, so the software could be months away from completion.

The Meizu 20 Pro and 20 series in general are a big deal as these are the first phones to be unveiled after the Geely takeover. And hopefully, it also marks Meizu’s return to the full-time smartphone business.

For a preview of the design, check out this leaked image. According to the label on the back, it is equipped with Sony’s 1-inch IMX989 image sensor.

By the way, Meizu is blindly collecting pre-orders for the Meizu 20 and apparently 200,000 people have already signed up. As a bonus, they will get 36 months warranty. Pre-orders will run until March 14, which could give us an announcement date for the new phones.
