The biggest advantage is its speed, but especially the low battery. It complements it 1 GB RAM and 8 GB internal memory.

Deploying a processor from Qualcomm could mean that Meizu will deploy the Wear OS. This did not happen and the company created its own operating system called Flyme OS. He is supplemented by an intelligent assistant Aicy. According to the manufacturer, this system should be perfectly optimized and we should get a similar experience as when using a smartphone.
The watch contains a battery with a capacity 420 mAh. The manufacturer promises endurance up to 36 hours per charge. Charging is solved by a charging "pancake" s USB C connector. We like this solution because it is much more practical than when the cable is an integral part of the entire charging base.
