The Meizu 16Xs is a triple camera smartphone that’s incredible value

Meizu might not be the most recognisable of the Chinese brands, but the smartphone maker is stepping up to the plate in a big way with its new impossibly affordable handset, the 16Xs (£195). Cramming a ludicrous around of tech into a preposterously cheap package, the Meizu 16Xs sports a 6.2in AMOLED display (complete with in-screen fingerprint scanner), a robust Snapdragon 675 processor, 16MP front facing camera, hearty 4000mAh battery, and an impressive 48MP main triple camera setup complete with wide-angle lens. That’s a lot of wallop for just under 200 quid.

About

I’m a freelance games and technology journalist currently mashing my keyboard in the name of fine institutions like Stuff, where you'll usually find me waxing lyrical about the latest mobile morsels. I've also been known to cook up some decidedly delicious reviews from time to time, and was once dubbed 'the games industry's answer to Nigella Lawson' by someone probably somewhere.
