My most anticipated phone for the next few months is Meizu 16s. As a very satisfied owner and daily-driver user of the Meizu 16th Plus (Chinese Version) I, look forward to the Snapdragon 855 powered 16s.

There has been a number of leaks lately (actual images plus cases) revealing the 16s to have no headphone jack (don’t care, use BT earbuds), almost no borders/bezels, AMOLED panel, NFC and a larger battery (3600 for the 16s and close to 4000 for the 16s Plus).



Today, in Geekbench, users spotted a “alps m1971″ phone with Snapdragon 855 and 6GB RAM which is almost certainly Meizu 16s or 16s Plus.

The device has the highest single-core performance I’ve seen from SD855 so far, clocking in at 3778 points! Multi-core score is just above 10,000 and is average for the platform.

I for one, definitely care more about Single-Core scores as long as the multi-core is above 7000 and Meizu 16s looks like a real winner.

For those who don’t know, Single-Core scores are important for loading times and starting apps, so we can expect Meizu 16s to be one of the fastest devices in that sector, if not the fastest.
