A decently specced mid-ranger with all the features you really need
The 5.5-inch Meizu M3E mid-ranger landed on local shores late last year with an original retail price of Php 9,490. The handset eventually made its way to Lazada, where it was given a price tag of Php 8,990. Now, Meizu’s cut the M3E’s selling price down to Php 5,999, making this mid-ranger one of the more “bang-for-buck” smartphones out there with local manufacturer warranty and servicing. Here’s a quick recap of the Meizu M3E’s specifications.
Edit:Â The battery value is supposed to be 3100mAh. Also, according to a poster, it’s now loaded with Android 6.0 Marshmallow too.
Edit 2: As of June 22, 8:45 PM, the price seems to have bumped up to Php 6,499.

Thanks to the poster below who sent in the tip that the units being sold on Lazada are already preloaded with Android Marshmallow. That makes this handset even more appealing then.
