Latest News About M8
On 2008-4-25 21:45:00
The Meizu Company President-- J Wong post a message about M8 on meizu's official website.
the Chinese is..
由于许多因素的影响,m8上市一再推迟,
对所有期待m8的朋友我深深感到抱歉。
对于m8的正式上市时间我无法给大家一个准确的答复。
但按计划m8将参加7月初青岛的展会,然后直接在市场上发布测试版(9折)取代原先的网上测试 活动。
关于公布视频问题,JW先生这样回答:
目前我们在改进ui中,在还没完成前不能公布视频或照片
我给出的都是估计时间,我也很着急, m8项目已花费大量的资金,并占用了魅族几乎所有的资源,再拖下去恐怕我们都无米下锅.
It was about: Becasue of some reasons ,Im sorry for the delay of M8's release,I do apologize to you freiends.However, I can't give a exact answer that when will the M8 be released !
According to the plan ,M8 will join in an exhibition on eraly July in Qingdao(A Chinese city), and then the alpha stage products of M8 will be realeased to the market directly at a discount of 90% and the original testing activity on Internet will be canceled.
When asked about the video of M8, JW said:
Now,we are updating the UI, the video can't be released before it is finished.
And he also said,the time he gave was estimated, m8 project had already spent a large quantity of money
and occupied nearly all the resource of Meizu Company, they would have noting to fill their stomach if the M8 is delayed unceasingly.
So,will u go on waiting 4 M8?
im sure i will haha~~
Let's give some encouragement to Meizu

Thanks for the translation Sunless!
Gangsta: Where do you see the delay in that? He said sorry for the whole delay I think (it was supposed to come out in December 2007 if I'm right) But yeah...still no specific release date.

He clearly mentioned "I can't give a exact answer that when will the M8 be released!"...then he goes maybe in july in some exhibition in a chinese city(I thought it was end of April or somethin')...The latest update leaves us with a feelin' of uncertainty and an obvious indication towards anotha' delay...All these false promises by JW will backfire his business strategy and by the time M8 will be out(hopefully) it would loose heaps of valuable customers.
We don't want apologies, we don't want false promises, we want a workin' M8.

Thanks for the news, finally we hear something after a few weeks of silence. Alpha test after July means there's still quite a bit of time left before it can be released.

Sounds good as long as the phone comes out before August and it's has no problem when it comes out and has all the features I want then its all good. I hope JWong can keep updating us every other week or so. Keep up the work Meizu

You're talking about August 2009, right?

Alpha stage? 90% off? So you'll buy a nice looking (plastic) shell with basic phone features.
Let's face it: The real M8 will be released in 2009 at the earliest!

I guess not! Meizu KNOWS under what pressure they are, and they would be stupid to release the phone later than September, because by then even the patientests will have give up!

Nice to hear something news.
I think its hard to make a phone that compares to the iphone, and it has to be good and not something unfinished. So i dont care how long they gonna take with making the phone, as long as its gonna be good. And as long that meizu dont goes bankrupt trouhg all the costs this phone is making :P

They can't release a phone, which does not exist.
