Where on the website was this ad found? I would like to see a bigger version of it to read what the fine print says.

A moderator confirmed they are working on a search app for new UI. Must be that.
You can also see the M8 become cheaper

EDIT: As I have read on another forum, this is an ad for the price drop for the upcoming shopping spree for the Chinese New Year. This made me think, since the Chinese New Year is on February 14th, would they release an ad with a software that they don't have finished yet? I mean, consumers would buy something different from what the ad says. Just made me wonder, because it wouldn't make sense. Can maybe anybody translate the ads?

Hmmm... New volume control AND the signal indicator is on the right... So many changes

Edit: Just realized! The clock is on the right too!

SNOOP_69

this picture is older then the ones from the top! the arrangement of this things will stay as they are in the new leak...cause they are already on that position.
the volume controler will change like it is on your picture, cause they also changed other buttons to a rectangular shape...sooooo many changes....

Lets see...

Chinese New Year starts on the 14th of Feb.

If Meizu want to be true to their advertisements, they will either need to have the firmware ready to upgrade to by then, or they will already be manufacturing them with the NewUI already on so they can have it in stores by then.

So this means that there is quite a good chance that the NewUI is finished by now... can't wait to find out.

... or they can release the new firmware the 13th and let the dealers help customers upgrade themselves. I don't see your logic behind why the official firmware is finished now.

evow04

true, it could be just one big marketing tric...!
well, we will see :-)

Well if they were manufacturing with NewUI then it would have to be.

If it has to be ready to go in 20 days they would be cutting it pretty close if it wasn't quite finished..

Only time will tell I guess.

The M8's made at the moment do not contain the new UI, since we have only leaks by now.
I am sure Meizu sells the M8 with the latest official fw (aka 0.9.3.18).
I can only wish for a final firmware on the feb 14.

C'mon guys, please just wait for this summer for the 1.0 and don't make fantasies. They're just using the newUI to sell the phone.
