Under the current near-universal adoption of Type-C phones, the retention of 3.5mm headphone jacks has become increasingly rare. However, many consumers still prefer using wired headphones or 3.5mm jack-related products. Despite the current popularity of wireless earphones, wired headphones remain favored by many consumers due to advantages like low latency and high stability. Moreover, as various music platforms gradually support lossless audio quality, we've seen audiophiles connecting "small tails" or even "small bricks" to their phones for music playback. These devices not only solve the absence of a 3.5mm jack but also take over the phone's decoding chip responsibilities, providing users with better audio decoding output. Today, we're doing a simple unboxing of the Meizu Lifeme EA2 DAC headphone amplifier.
The Meizu Lifeme EA2 Fast Charge DAC headphone amplifier features a T-shaped design with an oxidized aluminum casing and a fine matte surface, offering excellent texture. On either

For music lovers or audiophiles, owning a few high-quality 3.5mm HiFi headphones is a must. However, as smartphones increasingly remove the 3.5mm jack in favor of TWS Bluetooth earbuds, these wired headphones often end up forgotten in drawers.
Even though Bluetooth technology has advanced to version 5.4, improving high-fidelity audio reproduction, it still suffers from latency and bandwidth limitations. In contrast, high-end HiFi headphones remain unmatched in sound quality and haven’t been phased out by Bluetooth.
Initially, phone manufacturers included USB-C to 3.5mm adapters, but with the rise of TWS earbuds, these accessories have been "eco-friendly" removed, leaving 3.5mm headphones with no way to connect.
Meizu, with 20 years of acoustic expertise, offers a practical solution for audiophiles—
The Meizu EA2 Fast-Charging DAC/Amp, which not only revives your unused 3.5mm headphones for high-quality audio but also allows simultaneous charging and listening.
Notably, the Meizu EA2

Although Bluetooth earphones are very popular nowadays, if you use your phone to listen to music, audiophiles may feel that Bluetooth earphones are slightly lacking in sound quality. For those who pursue superior audio, wired earphones are recommended for phone music playback. However, if your wired earphones are high-end, high-impedance models, the phone’s output may not fully unleash their potential. In this case, a headphone amplifier is needed to adapt to these mid-to-high-end, high-impedance earphones, enhancing power and refining sound quality for the best audio experience.
Meizu’s headphone amplifier: lifeme HiFi DAC Headphone Amplifier Pro, features dual chips, 60mW output power, and supports 60W fast charging. For audiophiles seeking high-fidelity sound, it can fully revive your high-end earphones.
The design of the Meizu Hi-Fi Fast Charging Headphone Amplifier 2 Pro is similar to some USB-C to 3.5mm adapters on the market, with a USB connector on one end and a USB-C fast-charging

High-Energy Little Companion—Meizu HiFi DAC Earphone Amplifier Experience
We might have gotten used to using TWS earphones, especially since most smartphones have abandoned the 3.5mm headphone jack. However, wired earphones still hold an irreplaceable advantage over TWS earphones in terms of stability, latency, and sound reproduction.
Remember when Meizu released two generations of DAC earphone amplifiers, which sold out instantly upon launch? Now, Meizu’s sub-brand mblu has taken the baton and introduced the mblu HiFi DAC Earphone Amplifier, priced as a true "youth-friendly product."
Packaging
The packaging of the mblu HiFi DAC earphone amplifier follows the style of Meizu’s HiFi DAC earphone amplifier, with the mblu logo printed in the top-left corner.
The back lists the amplifier’s specifications and selling points. It boasts a high signal-to-noise ratio of 124dB, a dynamic range of 111dB, and adaptive impedance support for 16Ω–600Ω loads—impressive specs on paper.

Design: 21:9 One-Handed Design, All-White Body with Refined Craftsmanship
The unit we reviewed is the "Meizu White" variant of the Meizu 21 PRO. Naturally, the first impression it leaves is its unique white front bezel, a design rarely seen in the industry today. Upon closer inspection, it’s clear that the Meizu 21 PRO’s front and back glass panels are directly connected to the metal frame without any plastic buffer. Considering it also boasts an IP68 dust and water resistance rating, the precision in its construction deserves praise.
Additionally, the front of the Meizu 21 PRO features a 6.79-inch "One-Handed True Color Display." The name comes from its 21:9 aspect ratio and a width of just 74.42mm, making it one of the most comfortable flagship phones for one-handed use.
Of course, if you associate 21:9 with Sony’s 4K display, you might be disappointed—the Meizu 21 PRO’s resolution is only 31921368, slightly lower than the standard 32001440 seen in most flagships. However, it uses a

We’ve prepared a comparison video of the Meizu 21 series for you. While it’s called a comparison, it’s not overly strict—it’s more about detailing the specifics of both devices. This review remains purely green and pollution-free, with no promotional or commercial content, so feel free to enjoy.
Design & Display
In terms of design, the Meizu 21 and Meizu 21 Pro share a similar style. Their design language can be summed up in one word: "minimalist." Compared to most flagship phones with bulky camera modules, the Meizu 21 series looks refreshingly clean.For materials, the Meizu 21 series uses mainstream glass, which leaves a great impression—especially the Pro version, which feels "smooth as jade" and resists fingerprints well. Even compared to newer flagships, the Meizu 21 Pro doesn’t feel outdated.
Looking at the front, the Meizu 21 has a 6.55-inch OLED screen, smaller than mainstream phones but larger than current compact models (e.g., vivo X200 Pro mini at 6.31 inches, Xiaomi 14/15 at

The new Meizu 21 PRO is here.
This phone’s main feature is being an open AI terminal, open to all large AI models while also unlocking SOC edge AI and API computing capabilities. From this perspective, Meizu going all-in on AI is truly impressive.
The Meizu 21 PRO continues the family-style design in its overall appearance, with Meizu’s signature touches evident in both the screen and camera layout. The Meizu 21 PRO comes in four colors: Laurel Green (vegan leather), Starry Night Black, Meizu White, and Glacier Blue. The unit I have is white, Meizu’s flagship color. I quite like the white—it’s clean and simple, and the feel in hand is different from before because it’s now more slender.
As usual, let’s start with the dimensions. The phone measures 154.98mm * 74.42mm * 7.98mm, with the vegan leather version weighing 208g and the glass version at 214g. The 74mm width makes it appear much slimmer compared to most phones on the market, which range from 76mm to 78mm wide.

Meizu has introduced its third phone following the Meizu 21 and Meizu 21 Pro—the Meizu 21 Note "Phone Special Forces." Many users must be curious: what does a phone have to do with special forces? But after the launch event, everyone has gained some understanding of the Meizu 21 Note "Phone Special Forces."
More Than Just a Note, a Special Forces-Level Quality
The Meizu 21 Note is positioned as a performance flagship, but the first impression upon handling it is still Meizu's signature refinement. Compared to the Meizu 21, the overall size is slightly larger, featuring a 6.78-inch screen. Yet, it retains the all-white body, with the front screen adopting a narrow-bezel, full-white panel design. The screen bezels are just 1.75mm, achieving a screen-to-body ratio of 95.55%. Just the front design alone can outshine many models in the same price range.
The screen features a new 1.5K U8 luminescent material, supporting 1-144Hz refresh rate with full-scenario 8T LTPO adaptive high refresh rate.

We got our hands on the "Meizu White" version of the Meizu 21 Note. Next, let’s start with the specifications and see how this mid-range debut performs after Meizu's comeback.

Apart from the product name and the slogan "Welcome to the all-new Meizu AI device," there are no extra elements on the front.Opening the box reveals the phone itself, a clear case, and standard accessories like the 66W power adapter.
Like its packaging, the Meizu 21 Note inherits the minimalist ID design of the Meizu 21 series. The main camera, ultra-wide lens, and flash are aligned on the pure white glass back, with no unnecessary lines or elements.
The main camera of the Meizu 21 Note features a 50MP sensor with a 1.56-inch size. While not outstanding by today's standards, it
