Xiaomi Mi Mix impressed smartphone users with its borderless design. However, Meizu is aiming to grab the spotlight from the Chinese brand with its Pro 7 smartphone. The clash between the two models is believed to start the bezel-less device era.

The upcoming Meizu device is expected to feature a Helios chip and will be available in 64GB and 128GB storage options both with 6GB RAM. A propriety charging protocol "mCharge 4.0" is also believed to be included in the phone's features to charge it from 0 to 100 percent in just 40 minutes.
