Conclusion

Meizu is definitely the name that we will continue seeing in the future, not only in Asia, but in Europe and the US. The Meizu M2 Note is a great phone considering the price. It is one of the best budget phones on the market, but some users will think that 5.5 inches might be a tad to large for a phone.

Meizu has a 5 inch version of the phone with a slower processor and lower resolution display. The M2 Note feels good and works just as well as many more expensive devices.This phone is one perfect example how benchmarks are not always able to paint the full picture. This phone works well in everyday tasks and if you would just judge it from the benchmark, you would expect it to be much slower than its competitors. The phone is significantly slower than high end phones, but at the same time it works well for everyday users and it will fit the non-enthusiast user just fine.

Battery life is quite good, it will last a day under heavy use, and we didn’t notice that the 1.3GHz chip consumed too much power. You should be able to get up to two days of moderate use out of the M2 Note. It worked well with 4G in Austria, reaching over 85Mbits per second on the download test. If you don’t mind the large screen and you are on the budget this phone feels as good as the first Moto G. You will get a great performance, battery life and specification for very little money.
