Meizu Lucky 08 Review: Focus on AI Features, the Aesthetic Representative of Mid-Range Phones

As a product designed to meet the needs of more users, the Meizu Lucky 08 not only boasts an ultra-high aesthetic appeal but also emphasizes practical AI capabilities. Let’s take a look at its performance in real-world usage.

The Meizu Lucky 08 comes in two color options: Starlight White and Meteorite Black, with a body weight of 202g and a thickness of 8.6mm.

Unlike the Number series and Note series, the Meizu Lucky 08’s camera module no longer follows a minimalist vertical arrangement. Instead, it adopts a design inspired by the aesthetics of star-track technology, with a 100MP main camera as the visual axis. The secondary camera (2MP macro) and flash are arranged around the main camera like satellites, forming a gravitational ring structure. The concentric starburst texture also adds visual depth to the entire module.

Additionally, as an AI-focused device, this physical red button serves as both the power button and a multifunctional AI key.

The front of the Meizu Lucky 08 is another highlight. It features a rare white front panel design in the industry, along with an ultra-narrow 1.75mm symmetrical bezel, delivering an excellent visual experience.

For the display, the Meizu Lucky 08 is equipped with a 6.78-inch 8T LTPO flagship eye-protecting flat screen with a 1.5K resolution, a maximum refresh rate of 144Hz, and support for all-area wet touch control. In terms of eye protection, this screen also incorporates the same "Meizu Natural Eye Protection" technology as the 21 Note, certified by SGS for low blue light and flicker-free performance, along with 2160Hz high-frequency PWM dimming at low brightness.

Next, let’s talk about some of the practical AI features of the Meizu Lucky 08. One frequently used feature is search. By clicking the AI search button on the home screen, users can access a search function that combines the summarization capabilities of large models with the timeliness of real-time internet searches, providing concise answers to queries. Users can ask about unfamiliar topics or get daily news updates, helping them quickly find key information amidst vast content.

For calls, after enabling the Call Assistant in the call interface, when receiving calls like food delivery or courier services, the semi-automatic AI Call Assistant generates three suggested responses or allows manual typing, letting users choose their reply. In full-automatic mode, the AI takes over the call, automatically conversing or hanging up based on the content, and later summarizes important details for the user.

Another AI call feature is the AI Call Summary. After using the AI call answering function, users can retain call records, and the AI assistant generates summaries and to-do lists based on the conversation, accurately conveying important details like events, times, and locations to ensure users don’t miss critical matters.

Beyond calls, the Notes app now also integrates AI. By inputting requirements into the AI button, the AI Notes feature can generate articles, to-do lists, social media copy, agendas, and more. In practice, it responds quickly and is highly convenient. If users are unsatisfied with the generated content, they can rewrite, extend, or adjust the style.

Another useful feature of AI Notes is its support for translation and correction when handling important documents. It can quickly translate text and intelligently correct language errors, ensuring high-quality output. Additionally, the AI can summarize and extend content, making it extremely practical.

Users can also customize many AI functions. The AI Scenario Assistant supports dozens of trigger conditions based on time, location, and user behavior, paired with nearly a hundred executable atomic actions, enabling a vast array of automated tasks to effortlessly handle reminders or operations. Simply put, users set rules, and when conditions are met, the AI assistant automatically performs the required actions.

In addition to the above AI features, the Meizu Lucky 08 will introduce more AI capabilities in future OTA updates, such as AI price comparison and AI task robots. Interested users can look forward to these additions.

The Meizu Lucky 08 is powered by the second-generation Snapdragon 7s processor, supporting up to 12GB+512GB storage, with an AnTuTu benchmark score exceeding 630,000. This performance ensures smooth gameplay for popular games like Honor of Kings and Peacekeeper Elite.

For battery life, the Meizu Lucky 08 packs a 6000mAh high-density durable battery, paired with a bundled 33W charger. In testing, it charges to 40% in 20 minutes and fully charges in 93 minutes.

Thanks to its large battery and low power consumption, after five hours of usage, the Meizu Lucky 08 still retains nearly half its battery. For daily use, unless under extremely heavy usage, users can bid farewell to battery anxiety.

AI has been a hot keyword this year, with major manufacturers iterating and promoting it. Compared to other phones in the same price range, the Meizu Lucky 08 truly integrates AI into high-frequency user scenarios, allowing mid-range users to experience the power and convenience of AI. At this price point, the Meizu Lucky 08 offers a high-end aesthetic, distinct identity, and lowers the barrier to AI usage. More importantly, it effectively promotes the widespread adoption of AI+ smart devices. For this alone, it deserves praise.
