Design & Build
Meizu m2 Note is well-built,the Polycarbonate back which is off-couse, plastic.Actually, it looks like that the mobile has metal back but it’s plastic. The 3.5mm Audio jack at top along with secondary microphone. Power button and Volume Rockers are placed on left side. It may be difficult for a right handed person to reach those buttons but you will get used to it very soon after using device.

The devices comes with a 2GB of RAM and 16GB of internal memory. On the first boot, about 500MB of RAM was available. But, don’t worry about the available RAM because the performance is super-smooth. Out of 16GB,about 11GB is available to the user.You can expand it using a Micro-Sim upto 128gb,but as it has a Hybrid Slot you can only Pop-In one Sim Card if you use Memory Card.OTG is supported.

The device is running Flyme 4.5 based on Android 5.1. Flyme is really very good work by Meizu. On thing I noticed is that the device doesn’t have any bloatware, not even Facebook or Gmail. So, thumbs to Meizu for that. Many user will prefer this.The Flyme Ui looks beautiful with well-optimizations and also has some great Features.You can change Themes,etc.The device is Expected to receive Flyme 5.0 Update- Flyme (Screenshots)
Performance
We have No words for the performance,In day to day Usage the M2 Note performs smooth like butter.The Ui is well-optimized. Though the device has only around 400-500MB RAM available , but the performance is smooth. The device can run High-End games however there might me be little hiccups while playing.The Device doesn’t heat up much. There are three modes- Power Saving, Balanced and Performance, which you can choose upon your needs. The device didn’t lag in power saving mode too. Yes, you heard it right, Flyme is really well-Optimized.
Audio Quality
Nothing special to say about sound quality. There is a single speaker at bottom and the sound quality is decent enough to make you satisfied. I wouldn't say it's great but it's good. You can enjoy your songs with this mobile.The Cellular Call Quality is Good.Coming to the Audio Output via the headphone jack,it is There are some presets available so that you can tweak it to the best according to your taste.We tested it with Jbl T100A Earphones the sound output is Pretty Good.It also has a feature/option called as Dirac HD Sound.
Benchmarks
So,we tested benchmarks though it's not important that if your device hasn't got good benchmarks score then performance will not be good. But still, if we talk about Benchmarks we have got a score of 30K, that's enough. When you open benchmarks app, it ask you to perform benchmarks whether in Performance mode or Power Saving Mode, we did this benchmarks in performance mode. It scored 30,667 on AnTuTu Benchmark v5.7 which is good.
Overall, device is really worth for 10K.At the price of 10k you get an Awesome display,Good battery,Decent camera,Smooth performance and other special features in Flyme OS makes the handset more worth. What we think is,Go for the device if you want a Value For Money Phone.We would like to Thank Anurag Singh for the Review.
