Editorial report

Meizu 18s Pro 8 GB / 256 GB / China technical sheet

The Meizu 18s Pro suits buyers who want a high-resolution display and optical zoom, but it has two clear drawbacks: it lacks Google Services, and the main camera’s f/1.9 aperture is worse than that of most phones of its time.

Its 6.7″ Super AMOLED display has 526 ppi, a pixel density among the best of its time, and a 120 Hz refresh rate that is better than most. Peak brightness of 1,300 nits is also among the best. For photography, the 1/1.31″ main sensor and 3x optical zoom are among the strongest specifications of their time; the phone also records 8K video and includes optical stabilization. The f/1.9 aperture, however, is less favorable than most. Its AnTuTu v10 result of 900,800 places the hardware better than most phones launched around the same time.

The 4,500 mAh battery has typical capacity. Wired charging at 40 W is faster than most, while 40 W wireless charging is among the best; 10 W reverse wireless charging is also included. Design and display, cameras, battery, and connectivity are among the best of its time, while hardware performance is better than most. This version has 8 GB / 128 GB; the Meizu 18s Pro is sold in configurations from 8 GB / 128 GB to 12 GB / 256 GB. With a NeoScore of 7.6, it is a compelling choice for buyers who prioritize the display and camera versatility and can do without Google Services.
