Chinese phone maker Meizu has unveiled a new family of Meizu 15 smartphones. They come in normal, plus, and lite varieties and they go on sale in China starting later this month. They’re expected to head to other markets in Asia and Europe later.

The Meizu 15, Meizu 15 Plus, and Meizu 15 Lite buck some of the latest trends by featuring 16:9 displays and featuring headphone jacks and home buttons (with integrated fingerprint sensors) in the bottom bezel. But they all have relatively slim bezels, giving them a somewhat modern look.

So what sets the three phones apart from one another? The display size, resolution, and technology, the processor, and a few other details.

Here’s a run-down of what to expect from each of the new phones:

  1. These seem like phones I would be quite interested in if they ever saw the US market and had the correct frequencies. The stumbling block is “Android 7.1.2 Nougat with Flyme OS 7”.
