J. Wong teases with M9II design

Yep. I really hope the M9 gets released soon... My iPhone is dying... It is so damn slow and crashes... :/

It will be on schedule, it's just that Wong changes the schedule from time to time...

Fine, hope it stays on the ORIGINAL schedule then

History has taught us that Jack Wong loves to talk....

His "media friendly" schedule NEVER EVER turns out to be even remotely correct.

I personally love the hardware and the useability of the M8, but software has always been a problem, and one that has never been fully solved.

The news that the M9 will use a "custom" version (which actually means proprietary, just sounds better...) of Android worries me, it just means that it will be buggier and less useable than it should be. This seems to be a continuing trend with Meizu. They refuse to even share control of the development of their products, and thats too bad, because it ultimately affects the users negatively.

That said, if it is available sooner rather than later, I will get one, and hopefully there will be someone who whips up a fresh homebrew Android platform that is free of the Meizu slaveshell software.

you couldn't have said it better...I compmletely agree...and let's hope that this time Meizu will be able to surprise us positively.

That would be fantastic, although i wont hold my breath.

Here's hoping that Jack surprises us all.

Meizu CEO Jack Wong: Oh hey, the new iPod touch 'looks a bit like the M9II' -- Engadget

+1 for JW. There's no such thing as bad publicity. Despite being a perennial punching bag for the writers at Engadget, the comments reveal more of an understanding of reality than the actual article does.

Best (excerpted) comment: "...but I so wish they'd talk less and work more."

Do somebody know, if the Meizu M9 will have multilanguage? Or will it released again only with English and Chineese?

Android is multilingual!

yes, but there will be customized android on the M9.
So i dare to suspect that it will be chinese/english only.
If it is so probably a normal 'applocale' will not cut it.

JW sure has balls
I feel the whole lookalike duscussion is irrelevant these days, but this made me laugh.

I just think the m9 and m9II looks generally awesome. Hope they arrive soon!

Hope the M9 & M9II (stupid Phonename) are not so expensive.
Like the Meizu Company but, they need more Supporters or Employee, much of User where bought the M8, waiting Hours, Days, Months & Years for a official STABLE 1.0 FW.


.............Jacky Buddy, do not be so greedy and publish the 1.0 Firmware out

America can't stand competition they believe they are exceptional even while being unfair. Open a production line in Africa where China is deep into exploiting natural/mineral resources- they bound to back you up!

the reason i think m9II will take so long is because of how different it actually is to the first (still unreleased) m9. its like a completely different phone, 4" screen, front camera. its too good to be true... i envisage an early summer 2011 for the m9II, and, god willing, a christmas release for the m9, but apples interference might stretch that.

It was not the lastest one.

There are new information:


here the old one:


--> so camera position changed, buttons changed, the new logo and two new stripes and different sd card slot (or sim?) on the side

Specifcation:
with a 4" screen 1200*800 or 1280 * 854, A9 Dual-Core-CPU, 1GB RAM and 1 GB ROM, flash (camera), 16GB (i think built -n capacity).

Release: 2nd half 2011 for around 3580 ¥

Love the reply 2 down: "...will sell my blood to buy."

3580 RMB is pushing $550...don't think JW should be punching numbers -and announcing them- so far in advance.

If the M9 is discontinued and the M9II is the sole replacement, Meizu might be moving up the food chain a little too fast.

I think it's really dumb to start talking about M9II when they haven't launched M9 yet.

I mean, you don't see Steve Jobs talking about iPhone 5. You have to convince the customers that this is the one and only instead of giving them hope of getting something better in a year.
