List of known bugs / problems with the Meizu M6

mines freezes often after changing wallpaper papers more than 3 times too soon. and also freezes when going into certaint picture and video folders... Stuttering of course is a problem, and sometimes it cuts off by itself.

Meizu not fixing the bugs in their firmware is the biggest problem for me.

For me i own the SL version and i have not encountered any end-of-song stuttering. My major complaint would be the long loading time for playlists.

But for its price, i feel it is acceptably good. Better audio quality and battery life than my iPod video. Lightweight and small size. Being able to play ogg vorbis makes me happy too. Now if only Meizu will release a new firmware that fixes all those fundamental bugs...

I am afraid I am going to have to differ. :D I don't get the stuttering but the long play list loading is unacceptable to me. I like to set up a play list and then forget about changing my music for a while. Maybe they should just fix all the bugs..... :P

RaZz!

that's the reason i started to use folders instead of playlists.

create a folder and rename your files like 1-song1, 2-song2, and set song order to filename.
i know this sux, but atm this is the only way to get some kind of "predictable" song order ;/

but what comes to my mind right now. does the m6 recognize links/shortcuts? so one would be able to leave the original song names alone and just create a folder with links/shortcuts to the files. mh... gonna try that later

[not really a problem but...]
the 2nd stage of boxman is IMPOSSIBLE to do lol... of course anything after that is hard too...

yes, the stutter at the end is really bad for our ears, and the touchpad sometimes goes crazy. inaccurate clock is a dumb one, should be fixed easily. other then that, no biggies.

First let me state my Meizu,
M6 SP version, black 2GB
Headphones mostly used : Cannalphones

Audio is very hissy on easily driven earphones (Vsonic R-02 pro's)
Inheriant problem with the audio chip i know but it drives me crazy. Could possibly be fixed with attenuator plug.
Not a large problem with my Shure e2c's, but im going to get Some Super.fi 5 Pro's and see if their hissy with them.

Weird noise that is only active when the screen is off (i.e when the blacklight turns off, while playing a song), very noticable with easily driven headphones.
Again, noticed this with my Vsonic R-02 pro's. Really turned me off so i returned them.

End of track stutter.
Yea i get these on SOME tracks, not all of my songs suffer from this problem. When it does happen its sorta like Very loud Scratching sound, which wakes me up.

whitemoo.

I have a Meizu M6 and the bugs I've experienced are:
The stuttering at the end of songs (can be painful if you have the volume cranked up high)
The slow loading of playlists (the bigger the list, the longer the load)
The useless clock (useless because it is always slow)
The inability to get songs to play in order based on file name (there is an option to do that but it doesn't work)
Update music library occurs when it shouldn't, like when you plug the M6 into a USB with it turned off or when you turn the player on with the hold switch engaged and after it automatically turns off, turn it on again with the switch off and it will update the library even though it's physically impossible to add music.
Also what really bothers me is every time the music library is updated, the "my playlist" is deleted as well as what track you were listening to and recent video. This is especially annoying because I record some radio streams and listen to them in the order they were recorded. So lets say I'm halfway done and charge the m6, after I turn it back on it will start me off from the beginning. Now like many others, I've learned to deal with these problems and work around them. For example, all the playlists I make are small but usually I just put songs in specific folders so they play in the order I want, I never set the clock or use it, I never use the hold switch, and I don't plug my m6 into a usb for any reason whatsoever until I'm done listening to my music and movies or I can specifically remember what track/movie I was up to. In retrospect if I had to do it again, I would definitely not purchase an M6 and in the future I will never purchase a Meizu product again. Don't get me wrong, the M6 has a lot of cool features and potential, but it's the lack of polished firmware that ruins the M6. I can't possibly imagine how all these bugs were allowed in the final version of the M6 and how it's taken so long and no fixes have been released for it. Unfortunately for me the M6 isn't an iPod-killer, but a cheap asian-iPod-knockoff.
