Meizu Pro 5, the most high-end Ubuntu phone yet, now available for purchase

After making its official debut back in February, the newest high-end Ubuntu smartphone is now available for purchase.

The Meizu Pro 5 Ubuntu Edition can now be bought through JD.com at a price of $369.99 USD, €331.03 EUR, and ¥2390.14 CNY. The Pro 5 runs Ubuntu on a 5.7-inch 1920x1080 AMOLED display and offers a 21.16-megapixel rear camera with laser-assisted autofocus. There’s also a 5-megapixel front camera, dual SIM slots, a microSD slot.

Inside of the Pro 5 is 32GB of storage, 3GB of RAM, and an octa-core Exynos 7420 processor. Powering this whole package is a 3050mAh battery that you can charge over USB Type-C. Fast charging support is included, too.

The Meizo Pro 5 Ubuntu Edition beats its predecessor, the Meizu MX4, as the most high-end Ubuntu phone available. Ubuntu smartphones may not make up a huge part of the market, but at least there’s one manufacturer that’s pushing out premium Ubuntu handsets for the folks that like mobile Ubuntu. If you count yourself as part of that crowd, you can snag a Meizu Pro 5 Ubuntu Edition right here.
