Meizu M8 official release date

crimson05

i am realy excited about that wifi-question...

that are the opinions i have heard many times:
- china-version that will be released tomorrow: no wifi

i think that is clear.. only the question if with chip or without

but exciting is:
international version with wifi??
heard this from my dealer and chinese people

many say that is bullshit. maybe even no international version..

we will see!


i get one with wifi that is the main point xD

I (and everyone else) have been waiting for this for so long that I personally will wait a little longer to ensure any purchase will be of an official M8 - not a test M8.
Hopefull a M8 with WiFi too.

Why wait when the test version are essentially the same as the official ones (apart from a little text on a box saying "demo unit")? They won't add any hardware, but more likely remove the wifi chip, and you will have one less feature in your phone.

We just ordered a Meizu M8 in Beijing yesterday, and I'd have to assume it will be the "demo" unit also.

We need two more still, and it's a tough call whether to order quickly to get the disabled WiFi for sure, or to wait for the official released version with uncertain WiFi hardware.

Decisions, decisions...

As soon as someone can verify the official released version's WiFi the better for all of us.

Also: the official release; does that mean that Meizu has already sent thousands of official units out to retailers for them ready to sell today?
Anyone know of a good retailer in Beijing?

As soon as someone buys an official released version, please post retail packaging pics for comparisons to the demo version.

Cheers

Wow this is great news! After the 2 years of hype, we finally have a product going on sale today!

congratz to meizu hope they will keep the wifi ship today with internet almost everywhere it's a very nice feature.

Blah

Yay, so does that mean the 16gb ver will be out? with wifi?

AlexNesterov

NO WiFi in official version!

Blah

Really? Did you try the crackers on the retail?

SteveMB93

So it finally might come out... It's too late for me, the M8 without Wi-Fi is a no buy for me.

DimaMP4

That took quite a while, but congrats meizu.

Damn, who (and when) can find out if the official version has the WiFi chip.

I'm wanting to buy two more DEMO units if the official unit hasn't got the WiFi chip...

"this is great! hopefully a huge amount of sales will trigger plans for Meizu M8 version 2! Anyone who gets it, give us some details about whether there is wifi or not, okay?"

Rabsi1 ~ J.Wong has already mentioned plans for the next version of the M8 (the version that's supposed to have more features) - so no worries.

beer2nd

for sure, Official M8 without WiFi.

But anyone can confirm without WiFi Chip or just w/o WiFi function (need crack)

Pig

On the Chinese bb they are saying there is NO WiFi chip installed on the officially released version, although I am hard pressed to find out whether this is accurate info or not....

vinhm05

I'm happy with my 8gb, I just want some firmware updates.
can't wait for the new fimware, hope it comes in the next couple of days.

Coninsan

The complete lack of Wifi in the official version doesnt suprise me, since Wifi is reputedly banned by law. I do hope though that the rumors about an unofficial version with Wifi is true, although ive already ordered a Test version with the mentioned Chips still inside

Congratulations to Meizu

chengdude

Wait...what happened...did I miss the party? Did J Wong bring girls in silver satin Meizu miniskirts? Did someone take photos or learn the secret handshake if you want to buy the 'unofficial' official version?

harumscarum

please let me know addresses of MeizuStores in Beijing where is 16gb version available

lite

Im pretty sure wifi isnt atall illiegal in china, There may be a few laws passed surrounding wifi, But the missing wifi chip isnt because wifi is illiegal. Its not banned since there are so many devices using wifi in china anyway. Quick example, Ipod touch... I think its a good seller in china, still has wifi certified.


Anyway, without wifi. I guess ill be waiting for the next M8 V2, Helloo 4 yearsss XD (Btw, its almost been 3 already right???)
