    I think the answer is yes, because Meizu has never released any incremental updates.

    So... why exactly does this thread have a thumbs down icon?
    Can't wait to play with the Meizu MX!

    I second the yes, although I don't own an M8, on my M6 the firmware was never incremental, it's kind of like going from XP to Vista, you don't need to install XP first so you can have Vista.
    If you are having trouble with your player, please visit this thread first and try the steps before you panic. Most likely you will be able to fix your player easily using the steps listed.

    Players: Meizu M6 SP 4GB, iPod Touch 4G
    Headphones: SoundMAGIC PL-50s, Auvio In-Ear Armatures, Bose QC-15s.
    Current Audio Congifuration: X-Fi Elite Pro w/LM4562 Mod -> Mission MS-50 + Boston Acoustics Subwoofer

    @Err0r: I think some Users are dissappointed becaus known Bugs where not fixed within the last one or two FW-Updates. For example the time-sync-problem with the calendar and the not so good opera-Browser. That'y maybe why thumb down.
    Me for example can not use the Phone for those two raesons. Calendar and Browser are important for me. Meanwhile i use the iPhone. Have a look there - for example - at the google app. Google Reader. The safari Browser is enlarging text, so you can easily read it. The opera in M8 doesn't . Even if there is no international version of m8 - there is a fanclub :-) . And everybody should like this and work on a proper firmware; minimum in english.
    I still beleive, that i soon can use the m8 in stead of the iphone! But i must first get a firmware with theese elementary bugs fixed :-)
