After a China-only launch earlier this year, Meizu is taking its latest offerings, the Note 21 and Note 21 Pro, international. Joining them is the Meizu 21, previously announced for the domestic market. Here’s a breakdown of what these mid-range contenders bring to the table. Meizu launches its first international phones, the Note 21, Note 21 Pro and Meizu 21
Meizu Note 21, Note 21 Pro Specifications
Both Note 21 models sport large, FHD+ IPS LCD displays. The standard Note 21 offers a 6.74-inch panel with a 90Hz refresh rate, while the Pro bumps it up to a 6.78-inch display with a smoother 120Hz refresh rate. Selfie duties are handled by an 8MP camera on the Note 21 and a 13MP sensor on the Pro.
Flipping things around, the rear camera setups differ slightly. The standard Note 21 features a 50MP main sensor paired with a 2MP depth sensor. The Note 21 Pro steps things up with a 64MP main shooter and the same 2MP depth helper.
Meizu remains tight-lipped about the specific eight-core chipset powering the standard Note 21. The Pro gets the MediaTek Helio G99, a processor typically found in budget phones. Both phones come with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, expandable via microSD cards.

Interestingly, despite Meizu’s recent focus on AI, there’s no mention of AI-powered features on either phone. Software details are also scarce, but it’s safe to assume both will run Meizu’s FlymeOS.
The battery situation presents a trade-off. The Note 21 boasts a hefty 6,000mAh battery paired with 18W charging, prioritizing longevity over speed. The Note 21 Pro opts for a smaller 4,950mAh battery with faster 30W charging.
Meizu 21 Specifications
Talking about the Meizu 21, it is built around a 6.55-inch OLED FHD+ display with a 120Hz refresh rate and 1.74mm thin symmetrical bezels. Under the hood, the Meizu 21 has the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip, LPDDR5x RAM, UFS 4.0 storage, and a 4,800mAh battery with 80W charging. It comes preinstalled with the Android 14 with Flyme 10.5.Meizu launches its first international phones, the Note 21, Note 21 Pro and Meizu 21
On the back, the Meizu features an OIS-assisted 200-megapixel main sensor, a 13-megapixel ultrawide lens, and a 5-megapixel depth sensor. For selfies, it has a 32-megapixel front-facing camera. Other notable features include an Aicy smart RGB-LED ring on the rear, an ultrasonic in-display fingerprint scanner, an IR blaster, dual speakers, and an IP54-rated chassis.
