As of the moment, it's a very close call and just a matter of preference. The Lenovo K3 Note might be a little cheaper, it is slightly thinner and could have better speaker quality due to that "ceramic piece vibration speaker", but I'm not sure if it still going to be that cheap when it arrives here in the country. (Hopefully it will be as cheap as possible) Then M1 Note has a bit more powerful processor and a slightly bigger battery capacity and the camera sensors could be a bit better.
So if you want to get a phone with this type of power now then the Meizu M1 Note your only choice right now as it is readily available in the Philippines, but if you're willing to wait the Lenovo K3 could be cheaper by more than 500 pesos. So who are you picking? Will you wait for the K3 Note? Or get the M1 Note now?
