The Meizu M3 Max was released with an updated version of Flyme OS, a modified operating system based on Android Marshmallow. It features an alternative, flat design and improved one-handed usability.

Hardware and design

The Meizu M3 Max features a MediaTek Helio P10 system-on-a-chip with an array of eight ARM Cortex-A53 CPU cores, an ARM Mali-T860 MP2 GPU and 3 GB of RAM.

The M3 Max is available in four different colors (grey, silver, champagne gold and rose gold) and comes with 3 GB of RAM and 32 GB of internal storage.

The Meizu M3 Max has a full-metal body, which measures 163.4 mm (6.43 in) x 81.6 mm (3.21 in) x 7.9 mm (0.31 in) and weighs 189 g (6.7 oz). It has a slate form factor, being rectangular with rounded corners and has only one central physical button at the front. Unlike most other Android smartphones, the M3 Max doesn’t have capacitive buttons nor on-screen buttons. The functionality of these keys is implemented using a technology called mBack, which makes use of gestures with the physical button. The M3 Max further extends this button by a fingerprint sensor called mTouch.

The M3 Max features a fully laminated 6-inch IPS multi-touch capacitive touchscreen display with a FHD resolution of 1080 by 1920 pixels. The pixel density of the display is 296 ppi.

In addition to the touchscreen input and the front key, the device has volume/zoom control buttons and the power/lock button on the right side, a 3.5mm TRS audio jack on the top and a microUSB (Micro-B type) port on the bottom for charging and connectivity.

The Meizu M3 Max has two cameras. The rear camera has a resolution of 13 MP, a ƒ/2.2 aperture, a 5-element lens, phase-detection autofocus and an LED flash. The front camera has a resolution of 5 MP, a ƒ/2.0 aperture and a 4-element lens.
