MEIZU today announces the brand new MEIZU MX Quad-core smartphone to be available in June this year. Among many surprises, the MEIZU MX Quad-core is the first smartphone in the world to use the brand new and powerful Exynos A9 quad-core processor.

The MX Quad-core uses a power efficient quad-core Exynos A9 CPU with industry-leading 32 nm HKMG technology which has been optimized to reduce CPU power consumption by up to 20%. In addition, it will last even longer with a new 1700mAh battery.

With its state-of-the art hardware, the MEIZU MX Quad-core is better in every way than its predecessor. The MEIZU MX Quad-core CPU is 60% faster, and GPU 50% faster compared to the previous MX. Whether it is browsing through menus, playing the latest games, or watching 1080p video, the MX Quad-core easily beats dual-core devices.

MX Quad-core comes with a vivid 292 PPI high definition ASV display. With no visible pixels on the screen, it provides the user with the ideal smartphone viewing experience. On the back side, the MX Quad-core has an 8 megapixel BSI camera with an f/2.2 lens aperture, capable of taking great photos even in low light conditions. The MX Quad-core will come with MEIZU’s unique Flyme OS based on Android 4.0, providing users with beauty, simplicity and buttery smooth performance at every interaction.

The MEIZU MX Quad-core will be available in MEIZU’s 400 retail stores during June at ¥2999/3999 CNY and $3099/4099 HKD for capacities 32GB and 64GB in Mainland China and Hong Kong, respectively. With MX Quad-core, the company also releases MX back covers in five colors in addition to the original white, allowing users to experience the MX on their own terms. Coinciding with the announcement of MEIZU MX Quad-core, the MEIZU MX will have its price adjusted to ¥2399 CNY and $2599 HKD in Mainland China and Hong Kong respectively. The reduced price for the MEIZU MX is effective as of April 16, 2012.

Not a bad looking device either.

Funny, it looks more like an iPhone than any Samsung phone ever did.

Is it going to come stateside?

Didn't this company keep announcing prototypes and ended up being vaporware?

IIRC, it was only distributed in China. Some of the MIUI port devs got a device from the company.

LOL, Why not just get an iPhone?

Because Miui isn't iOS, while they obviously copied a lot of shit from it, it's still it's own man. I absolutely love the theming support it has. I've never seen another rom/phone OS that you can customize as much as Miui. I have icons from 1 theme, a status bar from another, and a lock screen from another. And their lock screen skinning blows even widgetlocker out of the water imho. Miui is a skinners dream. Even iOS with Winter/Dreamboard isn't as skinnable, but that would be a close 2nd for me.

Might have to try that one some day. I like messing with themes.

The screen side is identical to the iP4 but the backside is not. I'm guessing Apple will pony up some more millions to kill it!
