Blue Kor Sdn Bhd, the official distributor for Meizu smartphones in Malaysia, will be officially launching the MX4 smartphone in Malaysia at a retail price of RM1099. The smartphone, made from “aircraft-grade” aluminium, will be available online via Lazada and gogomobile.com.my.

To be available in three colour options (Grey, White and Gold), Blue Kor will only be bringing in the 16GB variant to Malaysia. We’ve also been told that stocks will arrive in batches, and for that reason stocks may be limited. The first wave of stocks will arrive on 28 November, and will be available online via the two retailers.

The is already a mx4 thread available, no point to open multiple topic on the same phone

https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/3375390

It seems to me that thread is not maintained properly. A proper thread is needed for this phone.

I'm still waiting for the official launch in Malaysia. Initially it was Oct, then end of Nov...now if you read their FB post, today it said probably early Dec.

more like a 3GS to me

Its just a thread to ask if the MX4 is "Gooding or not". Doesnt look like a proper thread to me. Please post constructive materials only. Thank you.

2gb ram is abit wat la. and the screen size.. wouldn't some apps will have compability issue?

'looks' like iPhone 3Gs;
since the phone is not out yet so hopefuly they are coping with better specs (in paper)

If you think the default aint appropriate, you should just pm the mod to merge it, instead of creating multiple topics. If everyone also think like that, there will be multiple similar topic to make it messy enough to view

Besides what you are posting are just specs and review from those review sites only. There no much discussion going on bout the phone because there only a handful owner of the phone

Well at least I some effort to make a proper thread for this model rather than complaining once others had done so.

Btw, tell me which thread on phones doesn't have specs and reviews from other sites? Unless you want me to make out my own specs for this phone.

This post has been edited by TOMEI-R: Nov 19 2014, 09:53 PM

thread maintained by a phone accessories seller. hehehehehe

You mean Mediatek processor powered Android device is least likely to receive OTA updates? Why is that so?

Ah...just noticed they are bringing 16GB model only! Without microSD card slot... 16GB is definitely not enough for most people.... Especially this is a mid high end phone. What are they thinking?

they will bring in 32gb further on. can check at their fb

Guys, Lazada starts taking pre-order for MX4 16GB already.

Hmmm...this is new to me! I thought ARM instructions are compatible across all ARM, especially same version number. Probably mediatek is missing out several crucial instructions?

You have a point there. Hopefully with the latest flagship model and their reputation on the line, Mediatek and Meizu will be quick in coming out with new updates especially with the new Android 5.0 Lollipop rolling out now for android devices.


They will surely bring the 16GB to "test market" first and being the cheapest model of the three, to command some market share first. Pure marketing strategy.

Looking good. Saw a few sellers on marketplace already selling this phone. Should be Ap sets though.

I'm waiting for MX4 Pro

Just annouced only yesterday..

The PRO will feature

- 5.5' Screen
- Samsung Exynos 5430 Chipeset (Same as the Galaxy Alpha's)
- 3GB Ram
- 3350 Mah Battery
- 5 MP front camera.
- Fingerprint Sensor

No word on international launch and pricing though.

64gb RM1.7k
