Meizu has official entered the Malaysian market, and its first order of business is to open six exclusive stores in Malaysia. In addition to that, it has also revealed that the MX4 Pro that was announced in China almost a month ago will be entering the Malaysian market in the first quarter of 2015.
First, let’s take a look at the Meizu MX4 Pro. The MX4 Pro has 3GB of RAM and is powered by the Samsung Exynos 5430, an octa-core processor which has four 2.0GHz Cortex-A15 cores and four 1.5GHz Cortex-A7 cores. The display is a 5.5-inch 1536 x 2560 IPS display that has a 5:3 aspect ratio, much like the aspect ratio of the MX4’s display.
