Week 39 in review: Xiaomi Mi 4c, Meizu Pro 5 and Nexus rumors

Another week passed, so let us recap some of the highlights of the past few days. First things first - after thoroughly examining the Sony Xperia Z5 Premium and its behavior and utilization of the 4K display, we can happily say that Sony has officially confirmed our findings. The Japanese giant also explained why the 1080p UI was necessary in a press release, so that's the end of that mystery.

Major announcements from last week were the Xiaomi Mi 4c and Meizu Pro 5. Both devices were eagerly anticipated and they mostly confirmed rumors about them from earlier in the month. The Mi 4c has a Snapdragon 808 SoC and a front-facing camera that the OEM is confident can take on the one in the iPhone 6, all without breaking the bank.

The Meizu Pro 5, on the other hand, is said to be the ambassador to the company's new exquisite high-end lineup. The 5.7-inch phablet runs on Samsung's powerful Exynos 7420 chip and makes great promiese in terms of design and build quality - all at at appropriately high price tag, of course.

A new wave of Lumia devices has also been keeping the industry on its toes. The Lumia 950 and 950 XL should be arriving shortly and we already have an idea of their respective price tags, as well as some specs. The Lumia 550 should follow shortly, as well.

But, we can't tour the rumor mill and not mention the upcoming Nexus duo. Rumors of the pair have been flying all over the place and after the Huawei Nexus 6P and LG Nexus 5X monikers were confirmed, we have been seeing more and more of the phones, including some specs, quite a few renders and leaked shots for both models.

In other news, the HTC One A9 is also quite near on the horizon and already featured in specs and image leaks. The same goes for the dual-screen LG V10, that promises to spice things up a bit, after the LG Class was made official this week.
