Meizu Me - View Single Post - List of known bugs / problems with the Meizu M6

gtr225 · 10-09-2008

I have a Meizu M6 and the bugs I've experienced are:
The stuttering at the end of songs (can be painful if you have the volume cranked up high)
The slow loading of playlists (the bigger the list, the longer the load)
The useless clock (useless because it is always slow)
The inability to get songs to play in order based on file name (there is an option to do that but it doesn't work)
Update music library occurs when it shouldn't, like when you plug the M6 into a USB with it turned off or when you turn the player on with the hold switch engaged and after it automatically turns off, turn it on again with the switch off and it will update the library even though it's physically impossible to add music.
Also what really bothers me is every time the music library is updated, the "my playlist" is deleted as well as what track you were listening to and recent video. This is especially annoying because I record some radio streams and listen to them in the order they were recorded. So lets say I'm halfway done and charge the m6, after I turn it back on it will start me off from the beginning. Now like many others, I've learned to deal with these problems and work around them. For example, all the playlists I make are small but usually I just put songs in specific folders so they play in the order I want, I never set the clock or use it, I never use the hold switch, and I don't plug my m6 into a usb for any reason whatsoever until I'm done listening to my music and movies or I can specifically remember what track/movie I was up to. In retrospect if I had to do it again, I would definitely not purchase an M6 and in the future I will never purchase a Meizu product again. Don't get me wrong, the M6 has a lot of cool features and potential, but it's the lack of polished firmware that ruins the M6. I can't possibly imagine how all these bugs were allowed in the final version of the M6 and how it's taken so long and no fixes have been released for it. Unfortunately for me the M6 isn't an iPod-killer, but a cheap asian-iPod-knockoff.
