In what looked like forever, we are finally going to see Ubuntu on a flagship smartphone. After so many speculation, Meizu has finally confirmed rumours that it has an Ubuntu edition of the Meizu MX4 would see the light of the day at the MWC 2015.
Meizu now has the MX4 running on three different OS – first is the normal Meizu MX4 runs Flyme OS 4.0 based on Android 4.4 Kitkat, the second runs Yun OS (Aliyun OS) which is owned by Alibaba; the the last being the Meizu MX4 Ubuntu Edition.
The Meizu MX4 Ubuntu Edition is expected to feature the same specs as the original; so we are expecting a 5.36-inch 1920 x 1152 pixels display (418ppi), powered by an octa-core MediaTek MT6595 SoC (four 2.2GHz Cortex-A17 cores and four 1.7GHz Cortex-A7 cores) and you have the opportunity of choosing a 16GB/32GB/64GB internal storage option as there is no microSD card slot.
Other features of the device includes – 2MP front camera, 20.7MP camera with Dual LED flash, 4G LTE, 2GB of RAM and is backed by a 3100mAh battery.
While the BQ Aquaris E4.5 Ubuntu Edition is the first ever Ubuntu phone, Meizu is claiming the title for the first ever Premium Ubuntu phone which is justified because the Meizu MX4 is a flagship.
