Meizu M8 is NOT on CeBit 2008

midsommer · 03-03-2008

Well - that are the facts: no M8 at CeBit. The plastic mockup do not really count, do it? For me that's the prove. It's time to skip waiting. But read yourself:

So we hurried on over to the Meizu booth in sweaty-palmed anticipation of laying fleshy bits upon a working M8 MiniOne. It's gotta be here, right? After all, Meizu CEO Jack Wong promised it his damn self. Nope. Oh sure, they did bring that siliconless, plastic mockup already seen kicking around the Nets for awhile and they offered to show us a laptop-based demo of the UI if we come back tomorrow. Although even the demo is feature incomplete. Nevertheless, Meizu is confident that it will begin shipping the M8 in China in the next "half year" while remaining coy for a rest-of-world launch. Guess reverse engineering the iPhone isn't so easy, eh Jackson?

Meizu's M8 a CeBIT no show just like CES -- surprised? - Engadget

Yeah I just read that too..

I'm thinking the m8 might be vaporware after all...

Oh well... You know what they say about things being too good to be true...

I think thats the last straw for me. I have been hanging out for a long time now, just waiting for this phone as i love my M6.
They dont even have a working UI demo, what a joke. We were all told they would have one to show us, and this is how they treat they're fans.
Disapointed

Well, my phone (HTC P3300) is just one year old and is running fine.
I can afford the wait. But Jack should have held his word, he said it would be here.
I'll just get a psp instead and wait

It might just be me, but i feel the DS does what it does quite well, where as the PSP always feels sluggish and crappy. That said, I've never used a slim and lite one, and I've heard they're unbelievably better. But hey, don't let me put you off buying one; I've never been a real hardcore gamer, I've sorta always been a casual dancer...

Now we should stop lol, coz this is so far Off topic it's not funny lol...

amen to that.
Anyway, Tangmu said he would be at the cebit, let's see what news he has.
I think engadget have always been against the M8
