Update (Aug. 8, 2019)

As @andreas-wenger, @waseefakhtar and @vadim-kotov mentioned, the fix is now included from com.google.android.material:material:1.1.0-alpha08 onwards.

Old answer

Finally I had the chance to put my hands on a Meizu. As I thought, the crash occurs every time the user clicks on a field to get the focus.

In my case, I had some android.support.design.widget.TextInputEditText inside TextInputLayouts. Simply replacing these TextInputEditTexts with AppCompatEditTexts fixed the problem, like so:

<android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:hint="...">

    <android.support.v7.widget.AppCompatEditText
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>

</android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout>

The behavior remains the same (since TextInputEditText extends AppCompatEditText). I still haven’t found the root cause of the problem though.
