More M8 info from JW

madman

Today on Meizu BBS a member speculated that the recent M8 pictures released revealed that the SIM card would be located in the same position as the iPhone.




J. Wong responded with a new picture of the M8 showing that the SIM card would be located below the battery. He also revealed that TV-Out and external mouse and keyboard would be achieved through the USB port.

Is this the final proof for the M8 having phone abilities ? I was not sure about that after what I've read. This looks more like a design study than a photo to me.

madman

To the best of my knowledge there was never any question that the M8 would include cellphone ability. There is concern however that the required licensing may not be finalised in time so the design will enable the phone component to be added after release if necessary. There is also a low-end version preposed with no phone or camera.

Ive got a few questons on thbe M8 that im sure others do aswell.

What memory card/s does it support?
Does it have infa-red?
Will there be a built in TV tuner?
If yes , Where is the ariel , Ive heard that an inbuilt ariel will get interferance because of it being too near to the PCB?
Will the GPS modlue addon sitll be avalible?
Are hardware/skin updates available?
Will a FM tuner be built in? (Id reccomend this were included as it is on most new DAPS)
Will Meizu develop playlist syncing software for pcs?
Will the screen have a glass cover to it , If so id reccomend the glass cover was lowerd back behind the metal rim as alot of the iphones are prone to the glass breaking.
Is the "M" bit a actual button atall , If so is it joystick style or just tacticle?


Im gonna buy one anyhow aslong as the tv tuner works in the UK.

How come the location of the speakers have moved?

iversonjack

Because J.Wong said so.

kagnon

It is a trade off between phone(portrait) or video viewing(landscape).
Landscape vs Portrait

To me it is better to leave it at the sides since if i were to watch shows on it i would use earphones rather than the built-in ones.
But each have their own preference.

LOL... the buck stops there.

Anyone who noticed any wong information feel free to correct me thanks

Next time do a search first before you ask, specs are specs, whatever isn't there will not be there :D

Im not an idiot , The specs you mentioned are undecided as of yet. I can read and have read a of the specifications. A DBV-H tv tuner is inbuikt into the player as stated by many, The M8 is a DAP and a phone , This includes the need for a FM tuner. There was a supposed ADDON GPS module that clipped into Via the pin connector aswell as a camera addon for the non camera models.
The "M" bit is a on/off button for the entire system (Not reset)

And dont argue from my opinions , The iphones glass cover does break , My dads glass cover got broken from a foot drop.
By updates i mean , can we skin it , I assume we can.

DVB-H The inbuilt TV tuner ony operates in eurpoe and china currently.
