Currently, all smartphones with a screen of 6″ or larger are already close to the segment of small tablets.

Now handheld devices, whose tasks once included communication, launching media files and Internet surfing, are becoming full-fledged tools for working with documents.

Moreover, unlike tablets, large smartphones can fit in a pocket and are mostly equipped with good cameras – front and front.

Although the popularity of such models is not as great as that of models with a 5-inch screen, therefore the choice of phablets is small.

Among best options There are about a dozen devices on the market.

Xiaomi Mi Max 32Gb – Huge screen and great battery

The Xiaomi Mi Max 32Gb smartphone offers its owner the maximum pleasure from watching movies.

The device with a 6.44″ screen diagonal is almost the same size as a tablet, has FullHD resolution and a six-core processor capable of running any video and application.

At the same time, a memory capacity of 32 GB is enough to record a huge amount of information, and a 4850 mAh battery will extend the operating time of the phablet before recharging to 6–8 hours, even in maximum load mode.

It is worth noting that using a huge smartphone is much more convenient than tablets of similar size - it weighs only 203 g, and 5 and 16 megapixel cameras allow you to shoot both landscapes and selfies.

Technical specifications:

• screen: 6.44″, 1920×1080;
• memory: 3 GB RAM, 32 GB storage;
• cameras: front 16 MP, front 5 MP;
• battery: 4850 mAh;
• price: from 13 thousand rubles.

Xperia T2 Ultra Dual – Great sound

The Xperia T2 Ultra Dual model from the famous Sony brand could be considered a good budget tablet with average characteristics, suitable for users for whom the main thing is screen size.

However, the popularity of the smartphone is hampered by the low quality-to-price ratio.

With only 1 GB of RAM and 8 GB of internal memory, 13 and 1.1 megapixel cameras (hardly a sufficient parameter for a normal selfie), the phablet has a cost of 16-18 thousand rubles, forcing many buyers to choose other devices.

Although the T2 Ultra Dual also has certain advantages - for example, high quality assembly, which is far from being achieved by more affordable Chinese brands, and excellent sound - especially in headphones, which most inexpensive tablet phones also cannot boast of.

Device parameters:

• memory: RAM 1 GB, disk 8 GB;
• display 6", 1920×1080;
• battery: Li-Ion, 3000 mAh;
• cameras: main 13 MP, front 1.1 MP;
• cost: from 16,000 thousand rubles.

Sony Xperia XA Ultra – Phablet with the most powerful camera yet

Another model from Sony, the Xperia XA Ultra, will also not be cheap.

However, its advantages are noticeable at first glance - this is a 21.5 megapixel camera ( the best choice on the tablet phone market), and its 16 megapixel front-facing version for high-quality selfies, an eight-core processor, and 3 GB of RAM.

Other advantages include a case with an aluminum frame and impact-resistant glass, thanks to which the phablet is well protected from falls.

The only drawback for this large smartphone– only 16 GB of storage, with much more favorable offers from other manufacturers.

However, the problem of lack of memory is easily solved by installing a 128 GB card.

Specifications:

• screen: 6", 1920×1080;
• processor: 8 cores, 2 GHz;
• cameras: 21.5 MP and 16 MP;
• memory: 3 and 16 GB;
• price level: from 24900 rub.

Sony Xperia C5 Ultra Dual – Best for Selfies

Despite the external resemblance to small tablets, model Sony Xperia The C5 Ultra Dual differs from them not only in its ability to make calls and send messages (although tablet PCs with a 3G module are capable of this), but also in its excellent cameras.

Two identical 13-megapixel devices with Selfie Flash allow you to take clear pictures and selfies at any time of the day.

The screen with high brightness mode will provide high-quality viewing of images, movies, and Internet content.

Despite the fact that the 2930 mAh battery holds a charge for up to 600 hours in standby mode and up to 7 hours in active mode.

Tablet phone parameters:

• screen: 6", 1920×1080;
• cameras: main and front 13 megapixels;
• processor: 8 cores 1.7 GHz;
• price: from 19850 rub.

Lenovo A889 Black – The most affordable phablet

Lenovo, known for its inexpensive smartphones, did not disappoint phablet lovers in this regard.

To their attention Chinese brand offered the A889 Black smartphone with a 6-inch screen and light weight.

And, although the model's storage capacity and RAM are below average, and the screen resolution is lower than many 5-inch options (960x540), it can compete due to price.

You can buy the A889 online for 7,500–9,000 rubles. At the same time, an 8 megapixel camera is enough for shooting, and a 0.3 megapixel front camera will only allow you to communicate via Skype.

From additional benefits One can note the relatively good sound, and among the shortcomings is the Android 4.2.2 OS, which the user will most likely have to update manually, and the battery is only 2500 mAh.

Device parameters:

• screen: 6", 960×540;
• memory: 1 and 8 GB;
• battery: 2500 mAh;
• cost: from 7500 rub.

Lenovo S930 – Stylish design

The more expensive Lenovo model, the six-inch S930 phablet, looks very stylish, especially for its price (only 10,500 rubles).

Although it still has little internal memory - 1 GB of RAM and 8 GB of storage.

The cameras, compared to other competitors, leave much to be desired - parameters such as 8 MP and 1.6 MP can be found in modern tablets.

The main advantages of the model are good color rendition and a wide viewing angle due to the IPS screen, as well as a weight of 170 g and an LED flash, which, however, according to user reviews, is practically useless when lighting is reduced.

Smartphone parameters:

• screen: IPS, 6", 1280×720;
• battery: lithium-ion, 3000 mAh;
• processor: 4 cores 1.3 GHz;
• cameras: 8 MP and 1.6 MP;
• memory: 1 GB RAM, 8 GB storage;
• price: from 10.5 thousand rubles.

Lenovo Vibe Z2 Pro The sharpest screen

Model advantage Lenovo Vibe Z2 Pro is the ability to run on it not only any modern application, which allows you to make 3 GB of RAM, but also watch a movie in FullHD quality.

The screen resolution is 2560x1440 pixels - higher than any affordable phablet and higher than most tablets.

Although the price of the smartphone is at the level of 15,000 rubles - quite a lot for the average model of the brand.

But purchasing such a tablet will allow you to take not only high-quality photos (16-megapixel main camera and 4-megapixel front camera), but also shoot video in UltraHD (4K) format.

The 4000 mAh battery will last for a whole day with constant use of the gadget.

Model characteristics:

• screen: 6" diagonal, maximum resolution 2560×1440;
• cameras: front 4 MP, main 16 MP;
• memory: 3 GB and 32 GB;
• features: no slot for memory expansion cards;
• processor: 4 cores, 2500 MHz;
• battery: 4000 mAh;
• cost: 14.3 thousand rubles.

LeEco Max X900 – A real iPhone competitor

At a fairly high cost (23.8 thousand rubles, at $350), the LeEco (LeTV) Max X900 smartphone has quite decent characteristics, allowing it to become a worthy rival to Apple.

These include an 8-core processor with a core frequency of 2200 MHz, 64 GB memory, 4 GB RAM and a 21 MP camera with autofocus and flash.

Wherein additional memory It won’t be possible to install - the phone does not have a slot for expanding the storage, just like the iPhones that the LeEco brand wants to compete with.

Smartphone characteristics:

• screen: 6.33", 2560×1440;
• cameras: 21 MP and 4 MP;
• memory: 64 GB storage, 4 GB RAM;
• features: no slot for memory cards;
• price: from 23.8 thousand rubles.

Meizu M3 Max – A good replacement for a small tablet

The manufacturers of the Meizu M3 Max model set the main goal of creating a device that could replace both a tablet and a smartphone.

To do this, they installed 3 GB of RAM, 64 GB on their phablet internal memory and a 4100 mAh battery.

At the same time, less attention was paid to the cameras - but still, using a tablet phone, you can both take pictures in front of you and take selfies.

And powerful processors (eight-core MediaTek Helio P10 and Mali-T860 graphics chipset) ensure the operation of any program without the slightest delay.

Smartphone parameters:

• display: IPS, 6", 1920×1080;
• processor: 8 cores: 4 x 1.8 GHz, 4 x 1.0 GHz;
• graphics: Mali-T860;
• memory: 3 GB and 64 GB;
• cameras: front 5 MP (four-element lens), main 13 MP Sony IMX 258 (five-element lens);
• battery: 4100 mAh;
• cost: from 17,100 rub.

HUAWEI Mate8 32GB – Contender for the best phablet

The HUAWEI Mate8 32GB tablet can be called the flagship model of its manufacturer.

After all, in addition to 3 GB RAM and 32 GB external storage, there is also a powerful GPU Mali T880, and an eight-core Huawei Kirin 950 chipset and two good cameras (16 and 8 megapixels).

The strength of the screen is increased thanks to special 2.5D glass, which practically does not break as a result of mechanical stress.

And the OS is a modern version of Android 6.0. All this could make the phablet one of the most popular - but it costs as much as 27 thousand rubles.

Specifications:

• screen 6″, 1920×1080;
• Graphics: Mali T880 MP4;
• camera: 16 MP and 8 MP;
• memory 3GB RAM and 32GB storage;
• battery: 4000 mAh;
• weight 185 g;
• prices: from 27,000 rub.

Huawei P8max – The largest phablet

Another Huawei model does not claim to be among the best in terms of performance.

However, the P8max still stands out among all other tablet phones due to its size - a 6.88-inch screen diagonal and a 4360 mAh battery make it practically a tablet PC.

Moreover, with decent cameras (13 and 5 megapixels), and 3 gigabytes of RAM.

Device parameters:

• processor: 8 cores, 1.5–2 GHz;
• main camera: 13 MP, front 5 MP;
• screen: 6.88", 1920×1080;
• battery: 4360 mAh;
• cost: from 29,800 rub.

Asus ZenFone 2 Laser ZE601KL – Rugged and reliable

Functional smartphone ZenFone 2 Laser ZE601KL from ASUS is a larger version of the 5-inch model from 2015.

The strength of the model is ensured by the metal case, ease of use - bright IPS screen and an 8-core processor.

The most vulnerable spot of any gadget, the front panel, is protected by Corning glass Gorilla Glass 4.

This big brand competes with worthy players with quick firmware changes (developers respond quite quickly with updates to user requests on the official forum).

Tablet phone parameters:

• Dual SIM support
• screen 6″, resolution 1920×1080;
• processor: 8 cores 1.7 MHz;
• cameras: main 13 MP, front 5 MP;
• memory: 32 GB, RAM 3 GB;
• battery: 3000 mAh
• price: from 17500 rub.

Samsung A9000 Galaxy A9 – Good old, big Samsung

Many buyers, when choosing a suitable smartphone, will buy the Samsung A9000 Galaxy A9 simply because it is currently the largest model from this manufacturer.

Moreover, it is not as expensive as some flagships from Samsung, and powerful enough to compete with other phablets.

Running on Android OS, v5.1.1, the device is equipped with a main 13-megapixel camera and another 8-megapixel front camera, which allows you to take good pictures in any mode.

Another plus - familiar to flagship Samsung models Super AMOLED display with good resolution, high brightness and durability.

And the tablet body has a metal frame and a glass back panel.

Phablet parameters:

• screen: 6.0", 1920×1080;
• processor: 8 cores, 1.2 GHz;
• memory: 3 GB and 32 GB;
• cameras: 8 and 13 megapixels;
• weight: 200 g;
• cost: from 26,000 rub.

Let's sum it up

As you can see from the review, not everyone needs to buy a phablet - models with similar characteristics at about the same price, but with increased battery life (due to a smaller screen) can also be purchased in the 5-inch smartphone segment.

Perhaps, when manufacturers take into account that an increase in diagonal should be accompanied by a corresponding increase in charge (from 4000 mAh and above), tablet phones will become more popular.

Although the demand for them is unlikely to ever reach a level comparable to smaller models.

First of all, because of ease of use, and secondly, because 5–5.5 inches is already enough to perform all the tasks for which a smartphone can be used.

At the same time, six-inch and even larger devices have a right to exist, filling the gap between standard touch phones and tablet PCs.

Meizu products were initially in demand among us, when the Russian consumer tried the right Chinese quality and the right prices. Then the company was pushed forward by Xiaomi with its even more attractive pricing policy and processors on the Dragon. Now Meizu has reconsidered her views on the smartphone industry and is focusing on design, cameras, individual features and convenience achieved by using innovative technologies such as recording the force of pressing or the mBack button.

We have collected for you the best smartphones from Meizu in the budget, mid-range and premium segments. These are proven models that are worth their price.

The best inexpensive Meizu smartphones: budget up to 10,000 rubles.

Despite the fact that "Meizu" Chinese company, its products cannot be called too cheap. Yes, the price/performance ratio is simply excellent, and even top-end devices are relatively inexpensive, but there are no ultra-budget smartphones in the company’s lineup. The cost of phones starts at about 8 thousand rubles.

4 Meizu M6 16GB

Cool screen
Country: China
Average price: 7939 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.6

Chic inexpensive smartphone. For seven thousand rubles you get a 5.2-inch IPS matrix with HD resolution, a 13MP camera, an eight-core processor (yes, on the Media Library), convenient control with one button. All necessary sensors are available: light, proximity, gyroscope and compass, fingerprint scanner. This is the best device for those who love Meiza and are looking for something budget-friendly for surfing the Internet, using social networks, casual games and photography.

In reviews, users complain about the quality of photos in conditions poor lighting, especially those taken with the front camera, and also complain about only HD resolution at 5.2 inches. Considering the price, all the shortcomings of the smartphone are natural and forgivable.

3 Meizu M5c

Best price
Country: China
Average price: 8,310 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.4

The M5c model is the most affordable in the class of budget devices. But this accessibility imposes a number of restrictions. First of all, you should pay attention to the plastic case. It gets scratched quite quickly even with careful use. And it doesn't feel so nice in the hand. Second significant drawback– lower productivity. The processor is somewhat weaker than its competitors, the RAM is only 2 GB, the internal memory is 16 GB. Buyers in their reviews claim that the interface works without problems, but it’s better not to think about heavy applications and games. Another disadvantage is the lack of a fingerprint scanner, which the other two participants have.

In the end, is the phone bad? Not really. Considering the price tag, we have an excellent candidate for the role of an inexpensive smartphone. It is worse only when compared with its comrades on the brand.

Advantages:

• Lowest cost
• Good build quality

Flaws:

• All performance indicators are slightly lower than competitors

2 Meizu M5 32Gb

Largest amount of built-in memory
Country: China
Average price: RUB 10,876.
Rating (2019): 4.5

The M5 can hardly be called the best in all respects. The appearance is the same as the M5c discussed above, which means all the shortcomings are the same. The only difference is the slightly increased dimensions due to the screen being increased to 5.2 inches. Although the resolution remains the same - 1280x720 pixels. There are also not many internal differences, but only when compared with the M5s. The processor performance differs little, the amount of RAM is the same 3 GB, but the video processor is somewhat more powerful. Although you can still play either casual games or serious games on minimal graphics settings. Even the amount of built-in storage is the same - 32 GB. Overall, the device is not bad, but the price is higher than the M5s, and the plastic body is a mess...

Advantages:

• Large amount of built-in memory
• Good performance
• Good image quality in normal lighting

Flaws:

• Plastic body that gets scratched quickly

Most often, Meizu products are compared with its fellow countryman – Xiaomi. Both companies quickly gained momentum and gathered a huge army of fans. And, of course, disputes between these armies will never subside over whose idol is better. We will not take the side of one manufacturer or another, but will simply collect the pros and cons of each of them in a table.

What's the result? You cannot choose only Meizu or only Xiaomi. Both companies have successful and failed smartphones, as well as proprietary features and famous shortcomings. As usual, the choice depends more on the buyer's personal preferences.

1 Meizu M5s 16Gb

Best performance in metal case
Country: China
Average price: 8,500 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.7

Here is the best Meizu in the budget class. First of all, the M5s model stands out for its metal body, which is good news. This advantage is also mentioned in many customer reviews. Secondly, the filling is pleasing. MediaTek MT6753 can hardly be called a performance monster, but it’s enough for the quick operation of the interface and applications. Moreover, the 32GB version has as much as 3GB of RAM installed (in the version with 16 GB of RAM there is only 2 GB of RAM). The device does not shine in games: casual games run without problems, but serious games can only be played on minimum graphics settings, and sometimes there can be stuttering.

The cameras pleased me. The 5 MP front camera shoots just fine for its price. The main camera performs well only in sufficient light. It remains to add the low cost to the above, and we get an excellent phone.

Advantages:

• Low cost
• Metal body
• Excellent performance for this class
• Good front camera

The best Meizu smartphones with a large screen: budget up to 15,000 rubles.

Large displays in smartphones are all the rage these days. Nowadays no one is surprised that a 5-inch device is called “mini”. And this is quite logical, because in recent years the percentage of people who consume content from a smartphone screen has been growing at an incredible pace. Moreover, the larger the screen, the more comfortable it is to watch videos or play games. Meizu’s assortment, of course, has many large devices, but we have selected for you only relatively inexpensive models.

3 Meizu M6 Note 3/32GB

Powerful battery
Country: China
Average price: 13,751 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.6

Model with Full HD, dual camera and large 4000 mAh battery. In reviews, users express positive impressions of using the camera: the frames come out bright, juicy and clear. Some people are confused by the bokeh effect - it looks strange. Macro photography is ok, autofocus does not fail. The main drawback of the model is the insufficiently bright screen. Out of the box, the phone's display may tend towards warm shades - this can be treated by correcting it with a blue bias in the settings. Smartphone owners are also dissatisfied with the quality of the coating - it quickly collects scratches.

The performance is pleasing - the Meizu company decided to experiment again with the Dragon, so here, to the delight of users, there is a fast eight-core Snapdragon 625. A bonus is fast charging, which charges the smartphone by 50% in half an hour.

2 Meizu M5 Note 32 Gb

Best camera
Country: China
Average price: RUB 15,494.
Rating (2019): 4.6

The M5 Note smartphone is the successor to the previous participant in the rating. And, of course, this model is slightly better. The appearance remains the same down to the smallest detail - even the dimensions differ by only a couple of tenths of a millimeter. The screen is the same 5.5’ display with FullHD resolution, but the contrast is higher, which is noticeable to the naked eye. The cameras have also changed for the better. There are no changes in numbers (13 megapixels, aperture 2.2), but the pictures are much better. In the dark there is not much noise, and in daylight, with straight hands, you get simply excellent pictures.

But in terms of productivity, progress is not noticeable, and this is extremely sad. It is also worth considering that there are several modifications of the smartphone: 16 and 32 GB models are equipped with 3 GB of RAM, the 64 GB version is equipped with 4 GB. Finally, it is worth noting the presence of fast charging, thanks to which a 4000 mAh battery is charged in just 1.5 hours.

Advantages:

• Great camera
• Higher contrast display
• The 64GB version has the largest amount of RAM
• Fast charging

Flaws:

• I would like more performance

1 Meizu M6s 64GB

Large amount of permanent memory
Country: China
Average price: 12,400 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.8

A device that lures buyers with its convenient virtual mTouch button, replacing three standard Android buttons. Another plus for the M6s is the processor from Samsung, and not the throttling Mediatek. There is a 5.7-inch diagonal with HD+ resolution and a fashionable 18:9 aspect ratio. Both cameras shoot decently for this price segment: both the main one with 16 megapixels and the front one with 8 megapixels. This phone from Meizu has received universal approval from users.

The main complaints in the reviews concern the need to choose between a second SIM card and a memory card. But the quality of the photos, the fast and conveniently located side scanner, the stylish, expensive-looking design and the user-friendly Flyme shell evoke so much delight.

The best flagship smartphones from Meizu

The vast majority of smartphone manufacturers have a clear division of devices into classes. The division is banal, according to cost - budget, middle and top classes. Of course, Meizu is no exception, so let's look at the most powerful, beautiful and expensive models of their production.

3 Meizu Pro 7 64GB

Two screens
Country: China
Average price: 23290 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.5

On the back of the device there is a small colored touch screen. It doesn’t add much functionality; it’s only convenient to look at the time, track notifications and pedometer indicators. But it is unusual, beautiful and show-off. You can also use it to take selfies with the main camera.

In reviews, users note the excellent photo quality (there is a dual-module main camera), luxury appearance and amazingly high-quality deep sound. There’s nothing to criticize the screen for – it’s a bright AMOLED, contrasty and clear. Problems - no NFC, no ability to connect a memory card, not enough powerful battery(maximum two days). Some other users also complain about Meizu's rough-hewn Flyme shell and the modest performance of Mediatek's chipset.

2 Meizu 15 4/64GB

Best camera
Country: China
Average price: 31010 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.9

Fans of this smartphone claim that with its dual-module camera of 12 and 20 megapixels, it takes pictures no worse than the iPhone X and the flagship from Samsung. This is quite similar to the truth, since it has cool laser autofocus, optical stabilization and three (!)x optical zoom. A conventionally frameless design with a button under the screen and a body clad in ceramic acts magnetically, attracting customers.

Top processor, water protection, NFC contactless payment module - none of that is here. There is a fast, but not the most productive Snapdragon 660 chipset, 4 GB of RAM, fast charging and a battery with a modest capacity of 3000 mAh, a fingerprint scanner and a facial recognition function. The screen is worthy of praise - it is a Samsung development. It is not clear how the manufacturer “forgot” to install NFC in its flagship - this is a serious mistake. Overall this is good alternative for those who don’t have enough money for the latest Galaxy or who are fundamentally against Apple.

1 Meizu 16th 6/64Gb

Model for perfectionists
Country: China
Average price: 32,000 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.9

A smartphone with ideal proportions. “Meizu” did not bend to the trends: it did not attach an “eyebrow” to the screen and did not remove the audio jack. The engineers made equal indentations at the top and bottom, and synchronized the position of the connectors and buttons. A chic 6-inch AMOLED screen with Full HD+ and an aspect ratio of 18 to 9 is equipped with a fingerprint scanner. Yes, the sensor is located directly below the screen. The fly in the ointment is that the finger must be placed in a strictly designated place, and the response speed is lower than that of competitors. But the scanner is accurate. There is also face unlocking, which works even in the dark.

A small but significant plush is a separate vibration motor that works pleasantly and softly. The vaunted mBack button has evolved into an on-screen navigation bar. There are also gestures and standard navigation keys. The performance is excellent, because it has a top-end Snapdragon 845 processor. The main disadvantage of the new product is the lack of NFC. Also, the device is not pleased with its autonomy - with moderate active use it lasts a day on a single charge.

Meizu has introduced a new flagship smartphone- Pro 6. So, Pro 6 will lead the line of Meizu devices for the coming year, unless of course the company plans to release something even more expensive. The new product, by the way, in the best traditions of the manufacturer, is quite affordable for its class. Depending on the amount of flash memory, a smartphone costs $385 or $435.

It's probably worth starting with the fact that Pro 6 is much more compact. And not only him. The new product has a 5.2-inch screen, so by today's standards it is quite small. It uses a Super AMOLED panel Full resolution HD. The screen is protected by glass with a 2.5D effect, and the side frames are only 0.715 mm thick. The heart of the device is the MediaTek Helio X25 SoC, which is an overclocked version of the Helio X20. If preliminary data is to be believed, the Pro 6 will be the only smartphone on the market with this single-chip system for some time.

The device has 4 GB of RAM, which has already become the norm for flagships. Flash memory is available in 32 or 64 GB. It is worth noting that the refusal to use modern Samsung platforms led to the fact that for the smartphone it was chosen RAM LPDDR3 and eMMC 5.1 flash memory, while the Pro 5 used LPDDR4 RAM and flash memory compliant with UFS 2.0 specifications.

The main camera has a resolution of 21 megapixels. The Sony IMX230 module is used here. Let us remind you that the same one is installed in the Pro 5 model, so the quality of the pictures will be approximately the same. There is a laser autofocus assistant and a new flash with 10 LEDs. The front camera has a resolution of 5 megapixels.

What may frustrate potential buyers is the battery capacity. It is only 2560 mAh, which is almost the same as the m2 model. But the new product supports mCharge 3.0 fast charging technology, which allows you to fully charge the device in just one hour. In 10 minutes the battery will be charged by a quarter. By the way, it is used here USB-C port 3.1. Of course, the branded mBack key contains a fingerprint scanner.

But that's not all. The Pro 6 has a couple of tricks up its sleeve. Firstly, it is 3D Press technology, which is responsible for recognizing the pressure applied to the screen. Secondly, a high-quality sound subsystem. In particular, the smartphone uses Cirrus Logic CS43L3, as well as the third generation NXP Smart PA solution.

Sensor Hub coprocessor, which processes data from various sensors and sensors, also migrated to the new product from its predecessor.

The body, as can be seen in the images, is made of metal, and the plastic inserts for the antennas are located in a new way. The dimensions of the smartphone are 147.7 x 70.8 x 7.25 mm and weighs 160 g. Pro 6 will be available in gold, black and gray color options. The OS is Android 6.0 with Flyme shell OS.
