You might be in a doubt then how does it work? The answer is here. The new smartphone Zero uses touch-capacitive panels on the side as replacements for the conventional power and volume buttons. For the speaker, Meizu Zero uses a piezoelectric transducer under the display and the absence of a charging port means that it relies entirely on wireless charging. Further, the company promises, wireless charging speeds of up to 18W, nearly double the 9W speeds that Samsung offers.
