Flyme 6 comes tomorrow with "Time Machine" feature

Meizu’s OS Flyme is known as simple and easy to work with. In order to keep being relevant and useful to everyone, the newest Flyme 6 will come out tomorrow with a big update.
Meizu already revealed the system update a month ago along with a list of devices that will get it. The most interesting feature is called “Time Machine” and will feature backup for contacts details you deleted two years ago. It looks a lot like Apple’s feature that has the same name and functions on OSX.
The Chinese company reveals that “Time Machine” will work and record current actions only if you turn it on. It can restore deleted contacts back from 2 years ago. .
If you happen to have one of the lucky devices that will get Flyme 6 let us know how the feature works in the comments.

Meizu takes the wrapper off Flyme OS 6

Just as previously promised, Meizu held a conference today and announced a pair of new devices. The Chinese OEM also officially released the new 6th version of its Flyme OS.
That all sounds great, however, there is still shockingly little info on the new software. Even the basics, like the underlying Android version are still unclear. However, judging by the “Make 6 great again” slogan and a few leaked screenshots, we can only assume Marshmallow is running under the hood.
What we do know, however, is that Flyme OS 6 comes with a refreshed aesthetic, that users will be able to experience first-hand on the new Pro 6 Plus and M3X handsets. The update will be coming to some existing Meizu devices as well. The OEM just tweeted a full list of supported devices, which will coincide with the models eligible for the public release as well.

Meizu Pro 6 Plus and M3X unveiled: 12MP Sony camera, Flyme 6

Meizu unveiled both the Pro 6 Plus and the Meizu M3X – a flagship and an upscale mid-ranger, both running the new Flyme 6.0.
Meizu Pro 6 Plus Bigger than both the Pro 6 and 6s, the Meizu Pro 6 Plus is like a Galaxy S7 that Samsung never gave us. Meizu crafted a metal body and filled it with 5.7 inches of flat Super AMOLED goodness – complete with QHD resolution (1,440 x 2,560px) and Always On functionality. It aims for 430nits of brightness and is pressure sensitive (Meizu calls it 3D Press) to boot!
All this requires plenty of power, so the phone uses the Exynos 8890 (same as S7 and S7 edge). There are two versions – 64GB and 128GB – which have different clockspeeds for the processor (2GHz and 2.3GHz respectively). Note that this is fast UFS 2.0 storage and in both cases you get 4GB of RAM.
The Meizu Pro 6 Plus packs a 12MP camera with a Sony IMX386 sensor (1/2.9” big, 1.25µm pixels). It’s optically stabilized and has an f/2.0 aperture – not the brightest, but Meizu put a 10-LED ri..

There are quite a few teasers available on Weibo, but nothing really revealing about the upcoming Flyme 6 OS. The only thing we know is the event"s slogan – Make 6 Great Again. Again, really?
We"ll know more in a week though, so the wait is almost over.
Now that we know for sure the Pro 7 will premiere next year, we all thought Meizu X will be the star at the event next week. The device will be the first to carry the new Helio X30 chip with a powerful 10-core processor and the latest PowerVR 7XT quad-core GPU, the same one used in the iPhone 7 series. The Meizu m5 note with a Helio P20 chip was also rumored to make an appearance.
But today a leaked sketch suggests there is something else hap..
