Simania_NL Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 (edited) This is article, which turned up on dapraview.net, says that Meizu is probably going to launch a phone called the M8. For some reason this phone makes people think of another gadget, which was showed not to long ago........ An interesting item turned up in our forums. Supposedly, Meizu has a new PMP in the works - the M8 - bearing a strong resemblance to the Apple iPhone in both form and function. The pics are probably nothing more than concept art, but then again, we wouldn't be surprised if they were close to the mark. Meizu has a history of borrowing design elements from Apple, as with the M6. • 57 x 105 x 11.5mm • 3.3-inch VGA+ screen (720 x 480) • WinCE 6.0 • 3 megapixel camera • GSM & Chinese TD (3G) cell phone • Standard USB port and dock connector • TV out, Line in/out So any thoughts? I must say it's a pretty good copy and it's running WindowsCE 6.0. Wonder what the Apple legal department thinks about this.

Takuro Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 I guess they noticed that both Microsoft and Apple are now going for the "glossy black" look, so they borrowed stole some hardware and software design aspects from Vista and the iPhone. What a complete and total lack of creativity. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/40657-chinese-iphone/#findComment-290487 Share on other sites More sharing options...
