Meizu announced its new concept smartphone: the Zero smartphone. Launched in crowdfunding site Indiegogo, the Meizu Zero is the world’s first hole-less mobile phone with an all-screen ceramic unibody.
This new Meizu phone boasts to be the first phone with no buttons, ports, or holes in the chassis. In front, the 5.99-inch AMOLED touchscreen display with 1080 x 2160 resolution welcomes you with the 20-megapixel selfie shooter. At the back sits the 12MP + 20MP dual rear cameras.
Running on Flyme 7 based on Android 9.0, the Meizu Zero houses a Snapdragon 845 inside. To ensure its port-less and hole-less design, the Zero smartphone incorporated new technologies to add necessary features. The “Super mCharge” wireless charging technologies offer speeds up to 18W.
There’s also the mSound 2.0 In-screen Sound Technology, which allows the Zero to produce sound right from the display. Additionally, the fingerprint sensor is built in-screen. Other than that, this device comes with virtual side buttons, eSIM, and IP68 certification.
