The Chinese phone company Meizu and Canonical are collaborating again for the launch of a new terminal with the Ubuntu operating system, in this case we are talking about the future Meizu MX6 Ubuntu Edition.

Meizu MX6 Ubuntu Edition: New Chinese smartphone with Ubuntu

The first images and specifications of the Meizu MX6 Ubuntu Edition have come to our newsroom with enthusiasm for the support for Ubuntu, with surprise at the specifications and with doubts regarding the final price that this Meizu bet will have. Let us briefly review your specifications.

The screen of the Meizu MX6 Ubuntu Edition will be 5.5 inches FullHD (1920 x 1080 pixels) along with two 20.7 and 8 megapixel cameras for the back and front of the phone, the generosity in terms of number of megapixels is surprising, but always keeping in mind that more megapixels does not mean better image quality.

We recommend reading the analysis of Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.

This terminal will make use of the Mediatek MT6797 processor, or better known as Helio X20, which comes with 10 cores distributed in this way; a dual core Cortex-A72 processor at 2.3 GHz, a quad core Cortex-A53 processor at 2 GHz and a latest quad core processor at Cortex-A53 at 1.4 GHz. RAM memory would be at 3GB, enough to move the Ubuntu system without too many inconveniences. The internal storage will be 32GB expandable.

A fingerprint reader has been included, as was the case with the Meizu Pro 5, and the battery will be quite generous, around 4000 mAh.

It is likely that the final price will not convince everyone, the Chinese manufacturer wants to market the Meizu MX6 Ubuntu Edition at a cost of 399 euros in silver and gold colors. What do you think? Is it worth spending 399 euros for this smartphone?
