    M8 to M8SE?

    Is it honestly worth getting m8 se instead of original? i hear of alot of problems, but is it worth it? Because 5 have found a 16GB model for $35 more than what i bought my first gen 8GB model. and with accessories i could sell it for enough to buy the 16GB.
    Im pretty sure the hardware is better, my main concern is the usability and i want to make sure that all apps will work on this version. Such that i backup with M8 Sprite and restore everything in the SE. I heard about problems with wifi, but right now is it possible to get the SE to work properly?
    Thanks in Advance

    I actually don't know... But Meizu will surely fix all these problems in future firmwares.

    Jups, it is worth to get!
    All my problems are solved with the SE; no low signaling anymore, better screen (in my opinion), better wifi signaling, no more annoying music button on the right etc..

    You clearly notice the build quality aswell that got improved with SE
    for example the ambient light sensor is better alligned, battery cover feels more solid, battery gained a higher amperage...

    So if you would be able to exchange you m8 with an SE for free i would do it right away. If you are out of warranty i would wait for the m9 :-)

    is there a way i could "break" it? cause right now there are alot of scratches in the frame, not so much the screen, but still.
    and my headphones caught fire. no joke, first the left earpiece stopped working, i thought it was only temporary as is custom with meizu. but no, i was walking home and thank god i pulled them out or my new coat woulda been ruined.
    is that grounds enough? I mean the cord was all black. then it turned grayish.
    is it possible to sorta make the touchscreen stop working? cause i really want that SE now.
    yes;

    Ok. Try this.
    Really carefully open the Meizu M8. (Dissasemble it)
    Then, when you see some microchips, like the processor, remove or destroy one of the metal-things that connects it to the motherboard. Like on the picture. http://colotech.files.wordpress.com/...mtronicjog.jpg

    (This may destroy it, cuz I destroyed my Mp3-player like this... But it's still supposed to be a joke, so don't blame me if it destroys and you don't get a replacement) xD

    I have a question...
    I want a Meizu M8SE. But I have that crappy iPhone... Damn you iPhone!
    Can I paint a "M" on the return button on the iPhone, and then destroy it, so I can send it to Meizu, so they can give me the new Meizu M8?

    No! I was serious.
    Why should it be a joke? Will they not send me a replacement?

    lol alhol
    they use a better soundchip in the SE. Overall, i think from more research that SE is better.
    Also, are Refurbed RE's supped up? Like are the parts replaced to be better?
    And ur best shot at getting an SE and getting rid of the Iphone is ebay. Seel ever accessory and stuff you can find. Is it 3G, 3Gs? if it is first gen good luck trying to sell that.
