Meizu Introduces the M6s with a Side-Mounted Fingerprint Scanner CENTRiC L3... xda-developers Jan 17, 2018 11:55 PM • by Doug Lynch Meizu Introduces the M6s with a Side-Mounted Fingerprint Scanner On Tuesday, China-based smartphone maker Meizu announced the successor to last year's Meizu M5s — the M6S — and it's a massive improvement. Just about every element of the M6s has been upgraded, from the system-on-chip to the modem, display, and more. Perhaps the most notable upgrade is the processor. Meizu has switched to the Samsung Exynos 5 7872 in the M6s from the Meizu M5s's MediaTek MT6753 — it's Samsung's first mid-range system-on-chip to pair four ARM high-performance Cortex A73 cores with the usual two A53 cores. The CPU configuration runs at respectively 2.0 and 1.6GHz, and is expected to see massive performance gains over its predecessor, which had A53 cores clocked at 1.3GHz. The GPU has also been upgraded to the Mali G71MP1, which is clocked at 1.2GHz. Source: Meizu Samsung's 14nm chip isn't the M6s's only headlining feature. Its fingerprint sensor is on the side, right below the power switch, and the phone's body sports a "sandblasted" metal build and 2.5D glass. The M6s has the same 3GB LPDD3 RAM as its predecessor, but the internal storage has been bumped to 32GB and 64GB, depending on the model. The phone's display, meanwhile, is now 5.7-inch IPS LCD panel that's the same HD+ (1440×720)  resolution the Meizu M5s's screen, but with the 18:9 aspect ratio made popular by phones like the Samsung Galaxy S8 and LG V30. The Meizu M6s uses Samsung's integrated modem (with support for 2G/3G/ and 4G LTE Cat. 7 wireless) and has two NanoSIM slots for folks who need to switch networks. In terms of cameras, the back of the Meuzi M6s houses a 16MP f/2.0 Samsung sensor and the front has a 8MP selfie camera with facial recognition features. The M6s uses microUSB 2.0 — you won't find a USB Type-C port — but the battery is larger than last year's at 3,070mAh. (Meizu says it should allow for about nine hours of video playback.)

Now, a new smartphone from CENTRiC Mobiles called CENTRiC L3 is launched in India. The latest CENTRiC L3 is priced at Rs. 6,749 and offers great value for money specifications. At this price, the device comes with a polycarbonate shell and we can't complain much about that. The CENTRiC L3 will be available in Quartz Grey and Raisin Black color options. On the front is a 5-inch IPS Oncell display with HD (1280 x 720 pixels) resolution. There is also a 2.5D curved glass laid on the top. It also includes a 64-bit MediaTek MT6737 quad-core processor clocked at 1.3GHz and it comes coupled with Mali T720MP GPU. There is 2GB of RAM and 16GB of onboard storage. The CENTRiC L3 includes a dedicated MicroSD card slot for expanding the storage upto 256GB. It runs on Android 7.0 Nougat out of the box. The device also supports dual SIM dual standby and offers VoLTE and ViLTE connectivity. In terms of optics, there is a 13MP shooter on the rear with LED flash and a 5MP shooter on the front for selfies. Both the cameras can record videos only upto 720p resolution. It is backed by a 3050mAh non-removable battery that is rated to give up to 23 hours of talk time and lasts up to 80 hours in standby mode. Beneath the display is the front-facing fingerprint sensor. The CENTRiC L3 also includes 3-axis accelerometer, proximity, and light sensors. It measures 141 x 70.5 x 8.6 mm and weighs 143 grams. Connectivity options include 4G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.0, FM Radio, GPS, USB OTG, 3.5mm audio jack, and a MicroUSB 2.0 port. Instead of the capacitive navigation buttons, the smartphone comes with on-screen buttons. Compared to other smartphones in this price range, the CENTRiC L3 offers a bigger battery and better cameras.
