Looks and in-hand feel

Creating a nice in-hand feeling is a craft on its own. Jack Wong, the founder of Meizu, who has more than 10 years of experience in this area, personally crafted this exquisite piece from the arc design of 0.5°on the back, to a tolerance of only 0.15mm for a comfortable hold yet great in-hand feel. With a 7.6mm ultra-slim body, the Meizu 16s fits all the contours of your palm, giving you a smooth hand touch feeling, and it's well deserved a title of ?Flagship Smartphone 2019 with the Best In-hand Feel'.

A combination of visual appeal and functionality, Meizu 16s unleashes the full excellence of a 6.2-inch Super AMOLED display, attributed to the COF bonding technique and the large-radius corners, 16s has a bottom chin within 4.2mm, creating a perfect 91.53% screen-to-body ratio. The Super Retina anti-blue light screen is VDE Blue-Light protection certified from Germany, which is able to filter 33% harmful blue light. Meizu 16s features DC dimming, which effectively reduces stroboscopic and allows the display to reduce eye strain. Upon over 45,000 times of debugging, Meizu increased the fingerprint recognition speed of the on-screen sensor by 100% and boosts unlocking success rate with wet hands by 30%, making 16s delivers a Super mTouch experience.

In the face of the defining color trend of smartphones, Meizu 16s features more unique color options. The ?Carbon black' color scheme reflects the looming carbon fiber texture under the multi-layer nano-scale optical coating, which highlights its cool and elegant style. The ?Pearl White' adopts multiple exposures and plasma polishing technology, a rare color featured by full-screen smartphone. Inspired by the deep desert on the Mozambique Straight, ?Phantom Blue' has eight layers of gradient nano-optical coating, and the addition of two-color of a gradient tilted 45 degrees, a phantom-like color combination of ocean and oasis, plus a little gradient color action depends on how it's held in the light.
