In conclusion, the reviewer stated: "The Meizu M6 is a good budget phone from the company that you won't be ashamed to use. Yes, it's far from perfect, but it also doesn't have any significant flaws that would make you want to reject it."[3]

The reviewer named Flyme and high-quality software as the smartphone's main advantages. In conclusion, they said that the smartphone performs its basic functions well.
