Meizu unveils the Meizu 15 and Meizu 15 Lite, partners with Google to release new Android Go phone

Meizu has launched the Meizu 15 and 15 Lite. The devices are in commemoration of the company's 15th year of existence, and offer a cheaper package than the 15 Plus flagship they were launched alongside.

Here's a rundown of what the Meizu 15 has to offer:

• 5.46-inch FHD AMOLED display
• Snapdragon 660
• 4 GB of RAM, 64 GB or 128 GB of storage
• Sony IMX380 12 MP + Sony IMX350 20 MP dual rear camera setup
• 20 MP selfie camera, f/2.0 aperture
• 3000 mAh battery
• 3.5mm headphone jack
• 24W fast charging, USB Type-C

And for the Meizu 15 Lite:

• 5.46-inch FHD LCD display
• Snapdragon 626
• 12 MP rear camera, f/1.9 aperture
• 20 MP selfie camera, f/2.0 aperture
• 3000 mAh battery
• 18W fast charging, USB Type-C

The Meizu 15 with 64 GB of storage comes with a US$400 price tag, while the one with 128 GB costs about US$445.

Meanwhile, the company is also working with Google on the production of an Android Go phone. Google's new Android Go is aimed at equipping entry-level devices with a streamlined, light version of stock Android Oreo. Meizu devices are notorious for their disagreeable software, so this potential phone comes as a pleasant surprise.
