Editorial report
Meizu Note 9 technical sheet
The Meizu Note 9 suits buyers looking for a balanced Android phone who value screen definition more than peak brightness: its 450-nit maximum is lower than that of most phones of its time. The 6.2-inch IPS LCD display has a density of 403 ppi, better than most, though peak brightness remains the main compromise.
Performance is better than on most phones launched around the same time. The phone has 6 GB of RAM and up to 128 GB of storage, leaving room for apps and files. Its camera is above average overall: the 1/2-inch sensor is larger than those in most phones of its time, while the f/1.7 aperture is brighter than most. Video recording reaches 4K at 30 fps; optical image stabilization is absent.
The 4,000 mAh battery offers more capacity than most phones of its time, and wired fast charging is rated at 18 W. Connectivity is also above average. The Note 9 includes Wi-Fi 5, Bluetooth 5.0, USB Type-C and a 3.5 mm audio jack, along with dual Nano-SIM support.
Its overall NeoScore is 4.5. The Meizu Note 9 is a reasonable fit for buyers who prioritize camera hardware, storage and battery capacity, and can accept a display whose peak brightness trails most phones of its time.
