Meizu has successfully launched its latest Android flagship smartphone with the Meizu 21 at a dedicated launch event held in China today. The device comes as a successor to last year’s Meizu 20 and offers the latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, a 200MP main camera, and 80W fast charging.

Meizu 21 features a 6.55-inch AMOLED display with FHD+ resolution and 120Hz refresh rate. The panel boasts symmetrical 1.74mm side and top bezels and offers peak brightness of up to 1,100 nits in auto mode. Meizu offers the phone in black, purple, green and white, the latter with color-matched white screen bezels, something you don’t see often.
Meizu 21 display specifications
Being a flagship phone launching in late 2023 means the Meizu 2023 gets the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip and is paired with up to 12GB of RAM and 512GB of storage. The back retains the metal camera ring design of the Meizu 20, but we now have a 200MP main camera with Samsung’s ISOCELL HP3 – a large 1/1.4-inch sensor with f/1.69 aperture and OIS.
Meizu 21 cameras and RGB light
The second cutout is for the 13MP ultrawide lens while the third houses a 5MP portrait camera. You’ll also notice the RGB ring flash which can be activated to display a pre-determined color or pattern for notifications. Meizu 21 also has an IP54 rating and carries a 4,800 mAh battery with 80W fast charging.
Meizu 21 also debuts FlymeOS 10.5 based on Android 13 and supports Flyme Auto, the manufacturer’s in-car infotainment system compatible with parent company Meizu Geely’s Lynk & Co 08 electric SUV that serves as the first vehicle to support FlymeAuto. Speaking of electric vehicles, Meizu has announced its plans to launch a Meizu DreamCar MX vehicle in the first quarter of 2024.
Meizu 21 prices in China start from CNY 3,399 ($480) for the 8/256GB trim and goes up to CNY 3,999($565) for 12/512 GB. Meizu also confirmed that it will offer a 36-month extended warranty with all Meizu 21 phones. Open sales start on December 5.
