Display and Camera
Meizu M3 note have decent viewing angle and good color production, video playback on device is also great and sound output is good too.
The 13MP rear camera of Meizu M3 Note certainly isn't among the top features of the smartphone.

Having said that, we were happy with the job that the 5MP selfie camera of the phone did when we clicked a few images with it. Apart from the usual modes that are there in most phones, M3 Note's camera comes with a mode that lets you creates GIFs.
