Meizu only recently launched their budget friendly device called "M3 Note" smartphone in India. If you are about to purchase or have already done the same, we've got news for you. Seems like the company won't be pushing the Android Marshmallow update on the phone anytime soon. The company is in fact concentrating on its own Flyme UI skin that's applied to the stock operating system and also says users should be looking at that instead of worrying about Android updatesJennifer, who works on the product side for the Chinese company called it saying it's is meaningless to see just the Android version with very little or no improvements and it is more important to look at the features built for their own skin Flyme UI.

Meizu says it clearly works on deciding about which part of Android is good the work that need to be done and only then brings important elements to its Flyme UI.She said they are working hard to deliver the latest security patch received from Google at the earliest, as "security is a key to the success of Flyme UI and the reason behind its 20 million customers".

The Meizu m3 note is considered to be the first direct competition to Xiaomi's Redmi Note 3 smartphone with competitive specs on paperlooking pretty great which also includes a larger and arguably better 4100mAh battery. Meizu, however sees the phone not just as a competition but also something better than. In fact Meizu went to the extent of calling it "the beauty of attraction". The Meizu m3 note however features a metal uni-body design and specifications to compete with the Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 or any other similar smartphones in the same price range. The company says it's not the design but what runs on the device and hence dedicates their focus on its Flyme UI 5.1 which run on top of Android 5.1 Lollipop.
