However, at the preliminary stage it was clear that users expect not one but at least two new items – Phablet, which became the model M1 Note, as well as its smaller version with a display diagonal of about 4.7 inches. At least, this parameter specifies Chinese sources initially.

It was believed that the coming conditionally compact smartphone will be the answer Xiaomi mobile device and its Redmi 2. Unfortunately, the long-awaited Meizu Blue (this is the name of the second unit, as Phablet passed codenamed Blue Note), which had would be acceptable to use one-handed diagonal display will differ from the initial expectations of fans of the brand and presented publicly available information.
