Meizu Pro 5 Mini Details Leaked
Meizu had launched the MX4 Pro, the bigger variant for MX4 earlier this year, but for the MX5 the company hasn’t announced the MX5 Pro. Instead of launching the Pro variant of MX5, they decided to stop that series completely and went for a new sub-brand dubbed ‘Pro’ and launched the first smartphone of the ‘Pro’ line, the Meizu Pro 5 in September 2015. In no less than 3 months, the company is getting ready to launch the successor for Pro 5, the Meizu Pro 5 Mini.
Although Meizu did not launch the Pro 5 Mini at the December 22’s event, it does not mean that the device has been entirely pulled, but will be released in Q2 of 2016. According to a micro-blogging leak of China Mobile PPT, Meizu might be looking into a launch event in April next year, where they might be launching two new devices one of which will be the Pro 5 Mini, alongside with an entry-level mid-range smartphone Meizu analysts say.
