Meizu released the Charm Blue U20 and U10 on August 24, which is the only Meizu mobile phone that has not been developed in recent years. Maybe it was because of the main attack line, Meizu gave it a pair of 2.5D glass and marked the starting price of 1099 and 999. And we loved the machine and got the new machine for the first time. Before the completion of the evaluation, it was customary to first look at the look and feel of the new machine and compare it with similar competitors.
This year, Xiaomi Meizu has streamlined the packaging. Only the product name is printed on the Charm Blue U20 packaging. This time we got a white media tester. Accessories are still four major items: manual warranty, card pin, charger and power cord. Unfortunately, Charm Blue U20 does not support fast charging like the previously released Charm Blue E. The charging head output is only 5V2A.
The film leaving the machine with very detailed functions and parts descriptions is still very hard to do.
There is no logo on the front, 2.5D glass, concave home button to support fingerprint recognition, and a large degree of edge transition. The results of these elements are very close to each other. In this year Meizu's own and vivo X7, OPPO R7 and other equivalent products have Very high face ratio.
Unfortunately, the Curve Blue U20 2.5D glass edge curvature is not large, and the plastic gasket is high (but the screen is still slightly higher than the washer), causing the edge to slide slightly shaved.
The back 2.5D glass is the biggest feature of the charm blue U20. The back glass is slightly more prominent than the front glass (I don't know if it is a tolerance or a design intent), resulting in a back edge that feels better than the front.
Similar to the iPhone 4's layout, the middle and underneath is a classic silver dialogue on the hot silver logo and "Designed by XX." The camera is slightly highlighted and the flash does not hide under the glass, but instead it is opened.
The noise reduction microphone is on the top of the fuselage, and the bottom is the headphone jack, main microphone, mirco-USB interface and speakers. It is worth noting that there are two aerial partitions on the upper and lower sides, one of which is integrated with the headphone jack, but none of them uses an injection molding process. Instead, they are plastic strips with lower cost, and they will be noticeably raised. Maybe to reduce tolerances, there is also a ring of plastic on the mirco-USB interface.
The metal frame is finely sandblasted with a small grain size and has bright chamfers at the upper and lower junctions. The key layout is a common left slot + right volume and power button. The machine uses an or card slot, supports dual nano-SIM card or SIM card + TF card.
Workmanship: The overall workmanship can also be, but the antenna is not injection molding process, plastic washers slightly higher. The SIM card slot is relatively compact, the Home button is pressed to feel normal, there is no loud sound, and the volume and power button feel is slightly harder and more crisp. But I don't know if it's a case or common problem. Our tester's volume and power button's height and feel are different between soft and hard. The power button is a little bit crumbled and loose. Fortunately for the Meizu series, the Home key is the common key.
Feel: 5.5-inch screen, the fuselage frame is narrower than Charm Blue E and Charm Blue Note3, but the iPhone4's straight border and hard transition, indeed a little hands and support. In addition to the soft feel of the glass back cover, it is undoubtedly the worst cell phone in Meizu history.

In addition to the front face of the Charm Blue E, the front face is almost exactly the same. The thickness is not large, but the back is completely different from the three designs. Although everyone says that they are tired of the traditional family face of Meizu, I still prefer the earliest version. In addition, the charm blue U20 is now the only camera protruding blue charm.

In terms of material differences, Red Rice Pro and Charm Blue E are more like brothers. Charm Blue U20's style is completely different, but the glass material is also very texture.

Charm Blue U20 is the best of these black phone control Meizu phone, the overall border thickness should be smaller, but the screen brightness is not as good as the two predecessors.
Without light, the white underneath this glass would look very plastic, but the overall whiteness was in place.
Photo comparison and detailed evaluation will be completed in the near future, so stay tuned
