Recently, a piece of news about the suspension of Meizu’s mobile phone business quickly fermented on the social platform Maimai, attracting widespread attention inside and outside the industry. According to leaked information from Xingji Meizu employees on the Internet,Meizu’s mobile phone business is about to be terminated, and the relevant teams are facing overall layoffs.andThe highly anticipated Meizu 23 series has also been essentially suspended.At the same time, Flyme Auto's car and machine business will remain an independent operation and will be taken over by the person in charge named Peng. In the future, it will be more deeply integrated into Geely's smart car territory.
Regarding the specific adjustment plan, the news mentioned that departments unrelated to the mobile phone business are expected to complete adjustments in March. The company will provide N+1 compensation and allow some employees to transfer internally.
As for employees who hold company equity, they need to communicate with the human resources department individually about the solution. Although the mobile phone business is suspended, the Meizu brand will not disappear. It will continue to remain within the Geely system, and other subsidiaries of Geely will subsequently take over related businesses.
At present, Xingji Meizu official has not responded positively to this series of rumors. The customer service department stated that it has not received relevant notifications.
Looking back at the 2026 Meiyou New Year Annual Meeting not long ago, Wan Zhiqiang, CMO of Xingji Meizu Group China, publicly revealed that due to the sharp increase in memory costs, Meizu 22 Air has canceled its launch plan.
At that time, he also had high hopes for Meizu 23, saying that it was under development and would challenge the narrowest frame technology in Meizu’s history. It is a pity that Meizu 23 will no longer use the iconic white panel, because the process challenges have indeed reached their limits.
This series of news has made many senior Mei friends and netizens sigh. Everyone lamented that this brand that could compete head-on with Xiaomi and adhere to the concept of youthful products has finally ushered in the most difficult moment in the torrent of the times.
