Update: Meizu have announced that they will be holding a “new product launch” on November 19th in Beijing. Meizu have already started sending out invites for the event. Although the Meizu MX4 Pro is not mentioned in the announcement, it does seem highly likely that a flagship phone will finally be unveiled.
The launch seems to be music related, so the Pro is either going to have some advanced audio features or we are going to see some audio equipment launched at the event too. The event will be held in Vice Pavilion of the Beijing National Stadium.

According to the latest leaked images of Meizu MX4 Pro, the phone is bigger than the original Meizu MX4. The new leak shows the back panels of both the regular MX4 and MX4. As can be seen in the images, Meizu MX4 Pro’s cover is wider as well as taller than original MX4. The reported size of Meizu MX4 Pro’s screen is 5.5-inches compared to the 5.4-inches of the original MX4’s screen. The difference is not huge though, but it’s very much noticeable.
Meizu has confirmed that the handset will be launched in November, though the company haven’t specified a date. Meizu is holding an event on November 4th which they teased recently on their facebook page. Meizu’s VP has confirmed that MX4 Pro will sport a fingerprint sensor. Earlier, the handset’s specifications were leaked on GFXBench benchmarks.

Recently two images of Meizu MX4 Pro were spotted in a post. The Meizu MX4 Pro photos show the device in black and white and feature a centrally placed hardware button underneath the display. A button (which will allegedly also be a fingerprint scanner) is not rectangular here, and it fits in with the rest of the phone seamlessly. The new Meizu MX4 Pro photo leak doesn’t mention anything new in the hardware department. The phone’s overall design also looks quite sleek. The phone is expected to be launching in the month of November.
The new Meizu MX4 Pro photos give the glimpse of the device, and we expect to learn more over the next few weeks if the MX4 Pro’s November release date is true.

Recently, a live image of the alleged Meizu MX 4 Pro was leaked on Weibo. The alleged device is in a white colour and has a large rectangular home button.

According to the new leak last week, Meizu will include a fingerprint scanner inside its rectangle home button. The leak also confirms that handset will sport a 5.4-inch 2K (2560 x 1440) display instead of a 5.36 panel on the Meizu MX4.
