Meizu’s two new smartphones, the Meizu 16 and the Meizu 16 Plus feature in display fingerprint sensors. But that’s not the only defining features here, it also has some top of the line flagship worthy specs, which it should as these are Meizu flagships.

Internals include Snapdragon 845 SoC with up to 8GB of RAM and 128GB of non-expandable storage.
