Several hours earlier, Meizu fans caused an uprising on the
Meizu BBS after an unidentified insider source revealed that the Meizu miniOne M8 project was put on hold for at least three months. The chaos was quickly contaminated with users banned and offensive material deleted.
The reason given for the hold was that Meizu was that quickly loosing market share on the domestic Chinese market, and needed to focus on releasing another MP3 player, Meizu M7, before their mobile phone debut. The Meizu M8 has caused Meizu to fall behind other Chinese brands now adopting large touch sensitive screens, multiple codec on-the-go video decoding, and recently also TV-Out to their MP3 players.
More details will be posted as they become available.
Happy April Fools!
