Editorial report
Meizu 18s 8 GB / 256 GB / China technical sheet
The Meizu 18s suits buyers looking for a compact phone with a sharp display and a versatile camera setup. Its trade-off is a 4,000 mAh battery, with less capacity than most phones launched around the same time; its 36 W charging, however, is better than most. This version pairs 8 GB of RAM with 128 GB of storage. The phone is also sold in configurations up to 12 GB / 256 GB, but it has no Google Services.
The 6.2″ AMOLED display combines 563 ppi and 120 Hz: its pixel density is among the highest of its time, while its refresh rate is better than most. At 162 g, the phone weighs less than almost all phones launched around the same time. The 64 MP camera has an f/1.6 aperture, both better than most, and also includes optical image stabilization and 4K recording at 60 fps. A separate 16 MP ultrawide camera is available for framing wider scenes.
Connectivity is among the best of its time, with 5G, Wi-Fi 6E, NFC, and Bluetooth 5.2. Hardware performance is also better than most: it uses a Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 and records 900,800 points in AnTuTu v10. The Meizu 18s earns a NeoScore of 6.5. It is a particularly compelling option for buyers who prioritize the display and cameras, provided its lower battery capacity and lack of Google Services suit their needs.
