Miniplayer wannabes

Yeah... I'm confused too . I would buy this to try it out, but it is $300. IDK. maybe someone could ask Meizu on a clarification or somethin'.

i think this is the m6 but under an other name, just like dane-elec.
linophir called the miniplayer onlin instead of meizu m6

or it could be an exact copie of the m6:P

so.... its the same player under an unknown brand at a higher price... that will be a topseller :P

believe it or not but this Meizu lookalike is actually a rebranded JXD638

so now the Meizu copies are being rebranded hehehe
although U must say this player doesnt even look that bad

that player with the camera looks very appealing. i wouldn't mind if meizu came with one of those. xD

I like M6 just for what it is for. A kickass mp3 player that can travel along your neck and look still good. And if you want to show off, watch a video from now and then. With a camera, wi-fi, bluetooth, I wonder how versatile m6 or its predecessor may be. The tiniest DMP as m6 may be, but never a chunk rip-off Cowon-Zune-Archos-Sarchos wannabe.

I actually have (had) the meizu ripoff shown on the first page, and yes, it's as bad as everyone says. I bought a 4gb genuine when the non-hacked ones first started coming out for $70 from tinydealdirect on eBay, and it definitely wasn't worth it. It stored the music fine, but it was SO SLOW becuase of the single processor and actions chipset. It had 2 inch screen (which was worthless because videos were of bad quality anyway, AND the screen was crooked). It also had a crappy 2.5mm headphone jack, which meant that I could only use the bad quality headphones until I got an adapter. Not a good experience. Let's see, what else? Oh yeah, the print on the buttons rubbed out and the cheap headphone jack broke after a month of normal use. I had to send it back 3 weeks ago. Still waiting for its return. I want my money back. My advice: go for the real thing. DON'T buy a meizu ripoff. Here are pictures of the player from the auction and from my crappy cell phone camera:

Theres one with the brand name SAFA, which I just saw yesterday.
Everything is the same as Meizu design, everything GUI, even the corporate Meizu M. Supposedly it has got a better screen with 260K colours or something. Instead of Spatializer, it's called the dNse or something, but everything inside the dNse is the same, Virtual3D ViBe, PCE etc..

yep I looked up dnse and found = at there website and they are ripping off many meizu products, such as the m3, m6, minione and even E series meizus links= http://emgeton.com/whatsnew.htm http://emgeton.com/product81.htm

Emgeton isn't ripping off anything. They are a Meizu private label company just like Dane-Elec for certain parts of Europe. Meizu has neither the distribution or sales channels to effectively market their products outside of China, so they rely on distribution and brands that can increase their market presence without the high costs of adding the infrastructure necessary to support a worldwide marketing effort.

Rebranding, aka private labeling, is not new or unique to the electronics industry with many companies, both large and small, utilizing it to penetrate markets that would otherwise be inaccessible. Meizu does it with several companies in different parts of the world as their brand strategy to increase market share in areas that they would most likely not be available in.

The top-left image in the Mini-Star ad is in fact the back of a Casio digital camera, the EX-S500/EX-S600 :

oooohhh thanks for clearing that up, I just thought it was fake because of the different pics and the m8 pics

i-meizu



but then it has another name on another picture in the same auction :D



http://cgi.ebay.de/NEU-4GB-i-meizu-2...QQcmdZViewItem

Lol! i-meizu xD It is a iPod, Meizu and Teclast ripoff at the same time o.O

I-MEIZU? ROFLMAO!!!!

its really funny to see a very generic player built in Meizu's name and Teclast GUI :D

Yeah xD But it is worse than both Teclast and Meizu lol. It is just a cheap rockchip player without anything extra ^^

One more Meizu wannabe...it is very cheap(around 30 usd) and it is tiny...

Another M6 clone, the LH-209 by a chinese brand LANHUI :

No, i didn't made a mistake, it's the LH-209 picture on their site !

And another product from this brand, the LH-400, which looks great :

They show the OVC T-11 earphones with it !

Looks great acutally.
