Secondary Screen
This will be the first time that Meizu experimented with a screen on its rear. Meizu Pro 7 comes with a 1.9 inches AMOLED panel on rear with 240 x 536 resolutions that can serve various purposes. In the default mode, the secondary screen acts as a weather forecast widget and clock. Swiping the device left takes you to step counter, and you have to swipe again for checking weather updates. In case you don’t want to check the clock, you can swipe upwards n the secondary screen to change the default setting to an animated wallpaper.
The most effective feature of secondary screen is that it can be used as camera viewfinder. You do not require front camera for clicking selfies, as the dual camera has better sensors and perfect selfies can be clicked with rear cameras! Smart isn’t it?

Camera
Meizu Pro 7 sports dual rear cameras set up, with 12 MP sensors, where one is monochrome, and other is RGB. Both sensors are combined to create depth effect portrait style photos, and black white mode ones. Using the default automatic mode of the camera, the users will get natural balanced shots paying attention to details. Image noise is not excessive no matter if the light drops. Depth effect is something that needs amendments as the Meizu Pro 7's camera blurs the edges of the subject in the forefront, confusing them with the background.
Good photos are possible in only good light while using manual Pro mode. You can adjust focus manually, setting it to macro mode, you can get sharp shots of close ups and small objects with perfect balance of sharpness, color, and light contrast.
