Meizu Note 22 4G, mblu 22 and mblu 22 Pro launch globally, marking the brand's return

GSM Arena20-05-2025

Meizu has returned – the company unveiled three new phones at the MWC and is now launching them globally with the Fly with me event.
The company has a presence in over 30 countries in Latin America, Europe, Central Asia, the Middle East and the Asia Pacific. The three models from the MWC are joined by two new models, plus AR smart glasses (called StarV View) and a health-centric smart ring (StarV Ring2).
The Meizu Note 22 4G will range from $180 to $300. It is powered by the Helio G99 and features a 6.78' 1080p+ 120Hz OLED display. It is equipped with a 108MP main camera, 8MP ultra-wide and a 32MP selfie. It runs on a 5,000mAh battery with 40W charging. The Note is rated IP54 for splash resistance.

The large price range of the Note 22 4G is due to how many storage options there are – the base model starts at 128GB and the top model has 1TB. All versions have 8GB of RAM.
The two mblu models aim for affordability. The Meizu mblu 22 Pro will sell in the $100-$130 range. It's based on a Helio G81 (12nm) and has a 6.79' 120Hz IPS LCD with 720p+ resolution. There's a 50MP camera on the back and an 8MP camera on the front. This model has stereo speakers, a 3.5mm headphone jack and a microSD slot.

The base model has 4GB of RAM and 128GB storage. There are also a 6/256GB and an 8/256GB models. The battery has 5,000mAh capacity and charges at 18W. The phone is splash resistant without an IP rating.
The Meizu mblu 22 is a sub-$100 Android Go edition phone (it will go for $80-$90). It's based on a 28nm Unisoc chip with 3/4GB of RAM and expandable storage. The 6.79' IPS LCD is similar to the Pro, except it runs at 90Hz. The cameras have lower resolution sensors (13MP rear, 5MP front) and the 5,000mAh battery drops to just 10W charging.

Note that there is now a 5G Meizu Note 22, though the hardware is quite different from the 4G version. There's a Note 22 Pro too, but even that doesn't have a 108MP camera like the Note 22 4G.
The new phones (and smart wearables) will be available in Russia, Spain, Malaysia and Vietnam first and then expand to other regions (30+ in total).
'Our All in AI strategy bridges hardware, software, and services to create a seamless smart life. We will continue to develop new products to bring consumers more cost-effective and personalised electronic products according to the habits of consumers in different countries and regions,' said Cheng Li, Meizu's CMO for Global Business.

Weekly deals roundup: Get the Galaxy S25, Pixel 9, Pixel Watch 2, and many more at killer prices!

Who said that you need a special occasion to save big on the best phones, tablets, smartwatches, and wireless earbuds available right now in the US? Well, today is not Black Friday or Amazon Prime Day, Samsung's next big Discover event is scheduled for next week, and even Memorial Day is in the rearview mirror, but that's not stopping some of the nation's biggest retailers from heavily discounting many of the top tech products you probably already had on your summer shopping lists. We're talking state-of-the-art foldables, humbler foldables, ultra-affordable mid-range handsets (with non-foldable designs), some of the best Android tablets in the world, two exquisite iPads, the most popular Apple Watch around, and... more great stuff like that. 5G, Unlocked, 128GB Storage, 12GB RAM, Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Processor, 6.2-Inch Dynamic LTPO AMOLED 2X Display with 2340 x 1080 Pixel Resolution and 120Hz Refresh Rate Technology, Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2 Protection, 50 + 10 + 12MP Triple Rear-Facing Camera System, 12MP Front-Facing Camera, 4,000mAh Battery with 25W Wired and 15W Wireless Charging Support, Galaxy AI, Mint Color Buy at Amazon 5G, Unlocked, 128GB Storage, 12GB RAM, Android 15, Google Tensor G4 Processor, 6.3-Inch OLED Display with 2424 x 1080 Pixel Resolution and 120Hz Refresh Rate Technology, 50 + 48MP Dual Rear-Facing Camera System, 10.5MP Front-Facing Camera, Gemini Integration, 4,700mAh Battery, Obsidian and Wintergreen Color Options Buy at Amazon 41mm, Wear OS, GPS, Bluetooth, Aluminum Case, Active Band, Multiple Colors, Circular AMOLED Display with Up to 1000 Nits Brightness, Heart Rate Monitor, ECG, Blood Oxygen Sensor, Fall Detection, Emergency SOS, Safety Check, Skin Temperature, Stress Management, Compass, Altimeter, Built-in Microphone and Speaker, Enhanced 24-Hour Battery Life Buy at Amazon If you think I'm exaggerating a little there, well, that's actually fair. But Samsung's "vanilla" Galaxy S25 is somehow still available at its lowest ever price with no special requirements and no strings attached, Google's "vanilla" Pixel 9 is (almost) as affordable as it's ever been, and the Pixel Watch 2 might just be the greatest budget smartwatch you can get for your Android phone this summer. Of course, the Pixel Watch 2 has an improved sequel around, the S25 has two or three bigger and arguably better brothers you can buy, and the same obviously goes for the Pixel 9 too. But sometimes, a smaller, cheaper, and/or older gadget is a wiser choice, and if you ask me, all three of these bad boys fall in that category today. $650 off (65%) 2023 Edition, 5G, Unlocked, 256GB Storage, 8GB RAM, Android 13, Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 Processor, 6.9-Inch Foldable LTPO AMOLED Display with 2640 x 1080 Pixel Resolution and 165Hz Refresh Rate Technology, 3.6-Inch AMOLED External Screen with 1066 x 1056 Pixel Resolution, 12 + 13MP Dual Rear-Facing Camera System, 32MP Single Selfie Shooter, 3,800mAh Battery with 30W Charging Capabilities, Infinite Black Color Buy at BestBuy $400 off (50%) 5G, Unlocked, 512GB Storage, 8GB RAM, Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 Processor, 6.67-Inch OLED Display with 2400 x 1080 Pixel Resolution and 165Hz Refresh Rate Technology, 50 + 12 + 50MP Triple Rear-Facing Camera System, 60MP Selfie Shooter, 5,100mAh Battery with 68W Wired and 15W Wireless Charging Capabilities, Interstellar Black Color Buy at Motorola $100 off (14%) 5G, Unlocked, 256GB Storage, 8GB RAM, Android 14, MediaTek Dimensity 7300X Processor, 6.9-Inch Foldable LTPO AMOLED Display with 2640 x 1080 Pixel Resolution and 144Hz Refresh Rate Technology, 3.6-Inch AMOLED External Screen with 1066 x 1056 Pixel Resolution, 50 + 13MP Dual Rear-Facing Camera System, 32MP Single Selfie Snapper, 4,200mAh Battery with 30W Charging Capabilities, Three Color Options Buy at Motorola 5G, Unlocked, 256GB Storage, 12GB RAM, Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Processor, 6.7-Inch Dynamic LTPO AMOLED 2X Display with 3120 x 1440 Pixel Resolution and 120Hz Refresh Rate Technology, Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2 Protection, 50 + 10 + 12MP Triple Rear-Facing Camera System, 12MP Front-Facing Camera, 4,900mAh Battery with 45W Wired and 15W Wireless Charging Support, Galaxy AI, Silver Shadow Color Buy at Amazon $50 off (6%) 5G, Unlocked, 256GB Storage, 12GB RAM, Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Processor, 6.82-Inch AMOLED Display with 3168 x 1440 Pixel Resolution and 120Hz Refresh Rate Technology, IP69 Water and Dust Resistance, Ceramic Guard Glass, 50 + 50 + 50MP Triple Rear-Facing Camera System, 32MP Front-Facing Camera, 6,000mAh Battery with 80W Wired and 50W Wireless Charging Capabilities, Black Eclipse Color, Free OnePlus Nord Buds 3 Pro Included Buy at OnePlus $200 off (20%) 5G, Unlocked, 256GB Storage, 12GB RAM, Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 Processor, 6.9-Inch Main Foldable LTPO AMOLED Display with 2640 x 1080 Pixel Resolution and 165Hz Refresh Rate Technology, 4-Inch Secondary LTPO AMOLED Screen with 1272 x 1080 Pixel Resolution and 165Hz Refresh Rate Support, 50 + 50MP Dual Rear-Facing Camera System, 32MP Front-Facing Camera, 4,000mAh Battery with 45W Charging Capabilities, Multiple Color Options, Free Matching Razr Strap Case Included Buy at Motorola 5G, Unlocked, 128GB Storage, 16GB RAM, Android 15, Google Tensor G4 Processor, 6.8-Inch LTPO OLED Display with 2992 x 1344 Pixel Resolution and 120Hz Refresh Rate Technology, 50 + 48 +48MP Triple Rear-Facing Camera System, 42MP Front-Facing Camera, Gemini Integration, 5,060mAh Battery, Hazel Color Buy at Amazon 5G, Unlocked, 256GB Storage, 12GB RAM, Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Processor, 6.9-Inch Dynamic LTPO AMOLED 2X Display with 3120 x 1440 Pixel Resolution and 120Hz Refresh Rate Technology, Corning Gorilla Armor 2 Protection, 200 + 10 + 50 + 50MP Quad Rear-Facing Camera System, 12MP Front-Facing Camera, 5,000mAh Battery with 45W Wired and 15W Wireless Charging Support, Galaxy AI, S Pen Included, Multiple Color Options Buy at Amazon 5G, Unlocked, 512GB Storage, 12GB RAM, Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Processor, 6.7-Inch Dynamic LTPO AMOLED 2X Display with 3120 x 1440 Pixel Resolution and 120Hz Refresh Rate Technology, Corning Gorilla Glass Ceramic 2 Protection, Android 15, 200 + 12MP Dual Rear-Facing Camera System, 12MP Front-Facing Camera, 3,900mAh Battery with 25W Charging Support, Galaxy AI, Titanium Construction, Three Color Options, $50 Amazon Gift Card Included Buy at Amazon 5G, Unlocked, 512GB Storage, 12GB RAM, Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 Processor, 7.6-Inch Main Foldable Dynamic LTPO AMOLED 2X Display with 2160 x 1856 Pixel Resolution and 120Hz Refresh Rate Technology, 6.3-Inch Secondary Dynamic LTPO AMOLED 2X Screen with 2376 x 968 Pixel Resolution and 120Hz Refresh Rate Support, 50 + 10 + 12MP Triple Rear-Facing Camera System, 4MP Under-Display Camera, 10MP Cover Camera, 4,400mAh Battery, Android 15, Galaxy AI, Pink Color, US 1-Year Manufacturer Warranty Included Buy at Amazon Can you believe that the cheapest device in this section of our deals roundup this week is a decidedly high-end foldable from just a couple of years ago available at a completely non-high-end price by both 2025 and 2023 standards? The still-gorgeous Motorola Razr+ is followed by an equally old, similarly attractive, and similarly affordable non-foldable Edge+ (2023) variant, while the newer and obviously better Razr (2024) and Razr Plus (2024) models are themselves sold at hefty discounts for a presumably limited time. Then you've got the brand-new Galaxy S25 Edge (in pretty low supply already) at a surprisingly decent launch discount with 512GB storage, and last but certainly not least, a love-it-or-hate-it pink-coated Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 at an incredible $600 off its list price directly from Amazon (rather than some sketchy third-party seller). $130 off (37%) Wi-Fi Only, 256GB Storage, 8GB RAM, 11.5-Inch LCD Screen with 90Hz Refresh Rate Support and 2000 x 1200 Pixel Resolution, MediaTek Helio G99 Processor, Built-in Kickstand, Eight JBL Speakers with Dolby Atmos Enhancements, 8,600mAh Battery with 45W Charging Capabilities, 8MP Rear-Facing Camera, 8MP Front-Facing Camera, microSD Card Slot, Luna Grey Color Buy at Lenovo $100 off (26%) Wi-Fi Only, 128GB Storage, 8GB RAM, 12.7-Inch LCD Screen with 2944 x 1840 Pixel Resolution and 144Hz Refresh Rate Technology, Android 14, MediaTek Dimensity 8300 Processor, 10,200mAh Battery, 45W Charging Support, Quad JBL Speakers with Dolby Atmos, 13MP Rear-Facing Camera, 8MP Front-Facing Camera, Luna Grey Color, Lenovo Tab Pen Plus Included Buy at Lenovo $100 off (18%) 256GB Storage, 12GB RAM, 12.1-Inch IPS LCD Screen with 144Hz Refresh Rate Technology and 3000 x 2120 Pixel Resolution, Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 Processor, AI Toolbox, Android 14, 9,510mAh Battery with 67W Charging Support, 13MP Rear-Facing Camera, 8MP Front-Facing Camera, Nimbus Gray Color, Free OnePlus Stylo 2 Included Buy at OnePlus $100 off (18%) 256GB Storage, 12GB RAM, Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 Processor, 8.8-Inch LTPS Display with 2560 x 1600 Pixel Resolution and 165Hz Refresh Rate Technology, Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 5.4, Android 14, 6,550mAh Battery, 65W Charging, Two Superlinear Speakers with Stereo Audio and Dual X-Axis Haptics, 13 + 2MP Dual Rear-Facing Camera System, 8MP Front-Facing Camera, ColdFront Vapor Chamber Tech, Eclipse Black Color Buy at Lenovo 128GB Storage, Wi-Fi Only, Apple M3 Processor, Liquid Retina IPS LCD Screen with 2360 x 1640 Pixel Resolution, 12MP Rear-Facing Camera, 12MP Front-Facing Camera, Top-Mounted Fingerprint Scanner, All-Day Battery Life, Landscape Stereo Speakers, Two Microphones, USB Type-C Port, Blue and Space Gray Color Options Buy at Amazon 128GB Storage, Wi-Fi Only, Apple M3 Processor, Liquid Retina IPS LCD Screen with 2732 x 2048 Pixel Resolution, 12MP Rear-Facing Camera, 12MP Front-Facing Camera, Top-Mounted Fingerprint Scanner, All-Day Battery Life, Landscape Stereo Speakers, Two Microphones, USB Type-C Port, Space Gray Color Buy at Amazon No Galaxy Tab deals? No problem, as the next best Android tablets are sold by Lenovo at simply unbeatable prices for cash-strapped mobile entertainment and mobile gaming consumers. Yes, the Lenovo Tab Plus, Idea Tab Pro, and Legion Tab Gen 3 are virtually impossible to eclipse in terms of value for money... unless, of course, you're a die-hard Apple fan. That's where the latest and greatest iPad Airs come in, fetching a very cool $70 and $100 less than usual in 11 and 13-inch sizes respectively with Apple M3 power and 128 gigs of internal storage space (each). With 256GB storage, a zippy Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor, a silky smooth 12.1-inch screen, and a bundled stylus, the OnePlus Pad 2 is yet another amazing iPad Air (2025) alternative, especially at a nicely reduced price of $450. Tough decision to make, eh? 40mm, GPS, 4G LTE, Bluetooth, Wear OS, 1.2-Inch Super AMOLED Display with 396 x 396 Pixel Resolution, Sapphire Crystal Glass, 5 ATM Water Resistance, ECG, Heart Rate Monitor, Fall Detection, Sleep Coaching, Body Composition, Three Color Options, US Version, 1-Year Manufacturer Warranty Included Buy at Amazon GPS, Bluetooth, Aluminum Case, 1.3-Inch AMOLED Display with 432 x 432 Pixel Resolution, Sapphire Crystal, AI Smartwatch with Energy Score, Heart Rate Monitor, Sleep Tracking, Wear OS, 300mAh Battery, 2GB RAM, 16GB Storage, Green and Cream Colors, US Version, 1-Year Manufacturer Warranty, Samsung Galaxy SmartTag 2 Included Buy at Amazon GPS, Bluetooth, LTPO3 OLED Always-On Retina Display with Up to 2000 Nits Brightness, ECG, High and Low Heart Rate Notifications, Sleep Tracking, Sleep Apnea Notifications, Temperature Sensing, Cycle Tracking, Emergency SOS, Fall Detection, Crash Detection, Water Resistant Up to 50 Meters, Swimproof, Depth Gauge, S10 Processor, Double Tap Gesture, Up to 18 Hours of Battery Life, Faster Charging, Aluminum Case, Multiple Colors and Band Options Buy at Amazon Well, it's actually pretty simple. If you're an iPhone owner and can't afford the rough and tough Apple Watch Ultra 2 , the "classic" Apple Watch Series 10 is your best bet at a solid $70 discount. If instead you use an Android smartphone, you can go for either the high-end Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 at its biggest discount to date in combination with an always handy Galaxy SmartTag 2 or a theoretically humbler but definitely not bad Galaxy Watch FE (with 4G LTE) at a slightly lower price. Yup, that's another hard choice. True Wireless Earbuds with Active Noise Cancellation, Ambient Sound, New Wingtip Design, Auto Switch, IPX2 Water Resistance, US Version, 1-Year Manufacturer Warranty Included, White and Graphite Color Options Buy at Amazon True Wireless Earbuds with Adaptive Active Noise Cancellation, Galaxy AI, Sound Optimization, Adaptive Equalizer, Real-Time Interpreter, Intuitive Touch Control, 360 Audio, Bluetooth 5.4 Connectivity, IP57 Water and Dust Resistance, Up to 6 Hours of Uninterrupted Listening Time, 26 Hours of Battery Life with Case, Silver and White Color Options, US Version, Two-Year Warranty Buy at Amazon Wait, that statement can't possibly be true for a "list" with only two options on it. And yet it (mostly) is, with cost-conscious buyers looking very likely to be satisfied by the first-of-a-kind Samsung Galaxy Buds FE and more demanding audiophiles getting everything they need from the higher-end Galaxy Buds 3 Pro. Granted, it would have been nice to add a third product somewhere between these two (both in terms of capabilities and pricing) on this list, but the Galaxy Buds FE simultaneously cover the low and mid-end categories, so whatever your preferences (and budget) might be, you probably have everything you need here.

Realme GT 7T hands-on

Say hello to the Realme GT 7T! It sits just below the GT 7, costing €100/INR 5,000 less. We'll address the differences in a bit, but let's start by examining the GT 7T on its own. The Realme GT 7T ships with a case and a USB cable in Europe, but adds a 120W charger in India. The phone comes in 12/256 GB and 12/512 GB flavors, while the GT 7 goes up to 16/512 GB (in its Aston Martin-inspired Dream Edition). In the hand, the Realme GT 7T is striking with its weight. It's just 202 grams - not light, but certainly impressive considering the 7,000mAh battery inside. The use of a plastic frame and fiberglass back panel makes this reasonable weight possible. The Realme GT 7T comes in the same IceSense Black and IceSense Blue colours as the GT 7, but adds a Racing Yellow, a nod to designs of old - remember the GT 5G Racing Yellow and the GT Neo3 150W? The Realme GT 7T In Racing Yellow, IceSense Black, and IceSense Blue We love the vegan leather finish. It truly feels exquisite to the touch. The shade is nice and very eye-catching. This would be our pick of the bunch. The display of the Realme GT 7T differs from that of the GT 7. It's not an LTPO panel, has a few more pixels, and is 0.2-inch bigger. We didn't really notice any difference between the two (the LTPO panel of the GT 7 might make a difference with the battery life, however). We love the Racing Yellow The middle frame is plastic like on the GT 7, but it gives off a very convincing brushed metal effect. The frame is color-matched on the Black and Blue units, too. On the yellow, it has a silvery-metallic finish. Let's talk about the differences between the Realme GT 7 and the GT 7T. You wouldn't notice them in the hand (Racing Yellow vs Dream Edition aside). The GT 7T has the same 50MP 24mm f/1.8 main and 8MP 16mm f/2.2 ultrawide cameras as the GT 7. The same goes for the 32MP 21mm f/2.5. The Realme GT 7 does however offer a third camera on the back - a second 50MP unit with a 2x zoom (so around 48mm) with a bright f/2.0 optic. We liked the photos from the 2x camera in our review of the Realme GT 7. The other difference is the chipset - Realme "demoted" the GT 7T to the Dimensity 8400 Max over the Dimensity 9400e. Both are built on the 4nm process, but the 9400e adds extra connectivity options such as Wi-Fi 7. The processor inside the Dimensity 9400e has four Cortex-X4 prime cores - one peaking at 3.4GHz and three at 2.85GHz. The Dimensity 8400 Max relies only on Cortex-A725 cores - one at a maximum of 3.25GHz, three at 3.0GHz, four at 2.1GHz. The graphics side is more slated towards the Dimensity 9400e, which has an Immortalis-G720 MC12 vs the MC7 on the Dimensity 8400 Max. Because you still get the 7,000mAh battery and 120W charging, along with the same display visual quality (if not its LTPO tech), the GT 7T might present a very interesting alternative for those on a budget.
