processor
As part of the smartphone processor bit “offended”. In general, the situation with the assignment of names in a strange MediaTek chips. The smartphone has a new (at the time) chipset MT6753, MT6752 which was weaker than its predecessor. In part, they are identical to the processor 8 core Cortex A53, but the rate has dropped from 1.7 GHz to 1.3 GHz. On the high-speed interface is not particularly affected, but severe problems smartphone can keep up with the predecessor
As part of the graphics unit cheated more:. The place of Mali T760 T720 came accelerator. It is also suitable for heavy gaming, but to cope with them only on low or medium settings. The smartphone is gaining in AnTuTu benchmark about 33 thousand points, while the predecessor showed all 40.
Memory

It is normal for the content of the background programs 3-5 is enough. Special brakes when switching tasks has not been noticed.
The internal memory 16 GB smartphone, about 10 of them are available for downloading content. Pleased that unlike its predecessor, the second slot for SIM cards has become combined. Now you can install the MicroSD card of up to 128 GB. USB OTG flash drives are also supported
Battery
What are the characteristics of the cut affected favorably -. So it’s autonomy. The smartphone is equipped with a non-removable battery on the 3100 mAh battery as its predecessor. Despite the good capacity, in M1 autonomy it was unimportant, in the games he held less than 4 hours. The Meizu M2 Note you can hold on to about 5. Time of video playback from the memory increased from 5-9 (depending on the brightness, quality playback source) up to 7-10 hours.

It is equipped with optics with aperture of F / 2.2 and dual LED flash. The same camera is used in the M1, and a new M3 is also equipped with a very similar sensor.
The quality of shooting can be called good if photographed in the afternoon, under normal weather conditions. In the room, it becomes no more than the average (the contours are blurred), and in the evening to consider the details of the frame – the task is not always realistic. Too much noise camera, affect not the best aperture and the small size of the matrix, unable to “open up” in terms of light deficiency. Video smartphone wrote in FullHD, at 30 FPS and stereo sound.
The front camera has 5 megapixel resolution, photo quality with it more similar to a couple dozen Chinese smartphones for $ 150-250. It’s a little “soaps” leather details on the photo, but generally takes well. For selfie goes for video – the more

So then the screen equipped with a high-end smart phones more, so that even after a year, he looks good. Screen Brightness – 450 cd / m2 and viewing angles are perfect, natural color reproduction.

Sound
The M1 was used a dedicated audio chip the Wolfson, but M2 Note on the use of third-party hardware decoders does not say anything. The sound on the dynamics of the net, volume – slightly above average. Listen to music on the speaker, without discomfort, it is possible, but relatively poor frequency range.
The headphones sound good, volume, differs from its predecessor can be called minimal. Why do so – is unclear: whether here, too, there is a dedicated DAC, or its predecessor it is implemented “for show”. Meizu has long refused to FM-radio, so no receiver M2 Note looks logical
