    Meizu M8 serious rival

    Hi everyone, i think it is time to show some alternative of Meizu M8, my first candidate is a device with most powerfull processor what I ever heard.

    Creative Zii Egg Plaszma: Android-Wielding iPod Touch


    Spotted in a recent FCC filing, the now-revealed Creative Zii Egg Plaszma boasts some of the world's first "flexible StemCell architecture" that uses 24 floating-point processors. But you may care more because it's basically an open source iPod Touch.

    Being seeded to developers as part of a $399 SDK (final units are expected to ship in bulk at $199), the Zii Egg Plaszma is an Android-friendly "handheld computer" that's like an iPod touch beefed up with more than a few popular requests.



    You navigate the platform through a 3.5" 320x480, 10-point capacitive multitouch screen. From there, you can access the rear facing HD video camera, front facing live chat VGA camera, 32GB of integrated storage with SDHC card expansion, Flash Lite support, GPS, Wi-Fi and, oh right, it's powerful enough to output 1080P video.

    Wow,

    When will it be available??

    I wasn't sure about getting a M8, but this looks so much better.

    Only 199?



    Even tough I love the look of the m8 OS

    saw it yet ugly and poor resolution(320X240)like the iphone). M8 G3 will eat it in 3sec. However it's a very cool device(HD support, gps, 32gb internal and videoconferencing).

    I've heard about this earlier, I'm considering getting it. GPS is especially nice, and the thing should be able to run loads of applications smoothly.

    Now, the question is, how do we port MyMobile to the Zii

    I've heard Creative is releasing it as a Zii device because they expect some other company to pick it up and develop it into a phone, but I imagine that's quite a ways off...

    It is not a phone, but its design is minimalist, and his harware (processor) is more efficient than the Tegra.
    Of course, a matter of time when companies are interested in this very powerful processor and will use in devices.
    Until then, the CREATIVE (ZII section) will develop a stronger, more efficient computing unit, that will be capable of more than the current.
    Time will tell.....

    It looks AMAZING. If it had a phone function, it would be the best phone available right now - especially for the price. If the relibabilty is like other Creative products, I don't think I can find one thing wrong with this product.

    Sounds like to me that Creative wants a piece of the market but doesn't have the gut/technology to take on iPhone.

    Well you could say the same thing about the Zune HD, but Microsoft is huge. I'm guessing that they both want to try these platforms out and if successful, they'll make them into phones.

    the 500 gb is only for the tablet version,
    the phone will problably have some less storage but it is not yet confirmed.

    but you are completely right :

    Now only wait to see if the price set is good.
