How long will you wait for the Meizu M8?

Th3_uN1Qu3, I think you're right. Somehow I missed to think about that... The good feeling you have as a Meizu owner is also to know not to be like all those Apple fanatics consuming a brand name without really evaluating audio-quality.

The reason I can't stop comparing them to Apple is just because there's quite some stuff that reminds of them like e.g. the player design, the very stylish packaging and the way they sell their stuff at Meizu shops in China (went to some in Zhongguancun, BJ).

Of course I know "the big green fruit" has no patent for this so it's just time another company starts to reach for this kind of quality products and design. If there's some time left in March I'll probably check out CEBIT.

I'll be at the CeBIT, like every year. I'll drop by at Meizus booth and make a few pictures - if they really show up with the M8 there.

I for one am done waiting. I could not be arsed to watch Meizu postponing the M8's release further... and further... and further...

"iPhone? Well, due to Meizu prolonging the release of M8 further and further and cutting it's specs more and more, I just found myself buying that over-hyped, over-prized piece of yesterday's technology. In fact, it's pretty cool - even with the half-eaten fruit on it..."

I will wait untill the m8 is released.
I have a SE k750i and does what he must do.

I'll wait till theres an alternative. So far there truly isn't.

HTC Touch: Ugly, far too round.
iPhone: ... I suspect you know all the flaws.
KU990: Too thick, and too much... camera.
N2: Too small. I want a large screen.
Prada and the other fancy pants phones: Expensive and crappy.

iPhone 2 might be worth something, but I won't stop waiting for M8 before there's a decent alternative. But once it's there, I won't be waiting a second longer.

I couldn't wait any longer, I went out bought an iphone and unlocked it myself and have never looked back, loving me new phone and all the 3rd party applications for it that I don't know if the M8 will have as many apps for it as the popular iphone, but regardless the M8 still looks nice.

Uhh, the Meizu will have Windows CE. It supports third party apps out of the box. It just... "works"

Hi,
I was buying an 'HTC-Touch' before Christmas 2007 but a friend sent me a link to a site with the images of MiniOne.
I said "Stop! This is better", and I read over the internet that it was expected for January 2008. Now I read that is March 2008 and we know how much is difficut to stay on schedule, then the first pieces will be affected by beginner problems... and don't know if it's a good idea to wait so long.

About the prdocut specs, are you sure that it's WiFi? I think it's a very important feature for a mobile phone, and on the internet page at MEIZU M8 MINIONE - The #1 source of miniOne info online! Meizu say it's not WiFi.

Second, why WIN CE 6.0 and not WIN Mobile 6.0?

Anyway I want a mobile and I can wait 3-4 months but if Meizu won't be available before summer I will get an HTC-Touch.

Regards

Third: why Meizu home page does not push MiniOne? Why they don't create curiosity about this product?

I guess some people can't read, lol.... I never said it doesn't have 3rd party apps, I said will it have as many 3rd party apps or people developing these new apps and espicially with the SDK coming out for the iphone finding apps and installing them are too easy.

I personally like the interface on the iphone and by the looks of it the meizu will be similar so I am sure all of you will love it.

so to me both phones are the "same shiet, different smell" and I don't wanna wait for something that will be about $100 cheaper but wait almost a year for it, no thanks, but thats me, I want new technology when it's still new, not when it's been out and copied 10 times over. If you keep waiting for something better you will never end up with nothing, plus what are firmware updates for to update your device with the newest features.

thats my 2 cents
