What it is
Average grade from independent test sites, magazines and video reviewers, 1–10.
How we count it
Grades: Each review's own score is converted to 1–10; without one, we grade the review ourselves. Big test sites count more, short reviews half as much as full tests. A video review counts half.
Score: The average grade is 80% of the review mark; the number of reviews is the other 20% (1 review = 5, the typical number in this category = 8, the most-reviewed model = 10).
Enough data: With few reviews, the average grade is pulled toward the typical grade of this category. No reviews yet: 7.2 for now.

Third-party reviews

What customers like about Meizu Mix

  • Long battery life of up to 240 days

  • High-quality build materials like 316L stainless steel and Sapphire glass
  • Discreet notifications via vibration and a small LED light
  • Water-resistant up to 30 meters
  • Comfortable to wear and suitable for formal settings
  • Includes basic tracking for steps and calorie consumption

What customers don't like about Meizu Mix

  • Lacks a digital display for detailed information
  • Missing a built-in heart rate monitor
  • Limited smart features compared to full smartwatches
  • No built-in GPS for independent tracking
  • The companion app is described as unintuitive or in need of refinement
  • Priced higher than some competing fitness bands with more features
  • Lacks advanced software features like inactivity alerts or goal achievements

Verdict

The Meizu Mix is a hybrid smartwatch that blends traditional Swiss quartz movement with essential fitness tracking, featuring a 42mm 316L stainless steel case and a scratch-resistant sapphire glass face. It connects to smartphones via Bluetooth 4.0 to provide vibration and LED light notifications for calls and messages while tracking steps, calories burned, and distance through its built-in accelerometer and gyroscope. Its standout advantage is an exceptional 240-day battery life powered by a 270mAh battery, complemented by 30-meter water resistance and a premium build available with leather, steel, or denim straps. However, it lacks a digital display and heart rate monitoring, and it does not support advanced features like GPS, sleep tracking, or third-party app integration.
