If you design a georgeous fashion phone and then tell me I can't buy it unless I'm on AT&T which currrently has poor transfer rates - and I can't switch SIM cards when I travel to Asia, expect me to go to your competition when they make a reasonably good product even if it does resemble yours.

You mean like Apple designers were judging the feel of their future iPhone by, you know, purchasing and holding an LG Prada phone?

With the iPhone, Apple did nothing but steal features from numerous other mobile manufacturers and wrapped them into quadratic, glossy icons. And now it's acting like it's the mobile world's messiah while being more restrictive than M$ has EVER been.

Me? I'm waiting for the Meizu miniOne. Because I am not going to pay twice it's value for a shiny piece of yesterday's technology just because there's a half eaten fruit on it.]]>Dec 14th 2007 2:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/Dec 14th 2007 2:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/Dec 14th 2007 3:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/
it really is, as most are becoming.. an iphone wannabe.

it's always impressive how much hatred some people can express towards a success story.
the iphone is easily the "messiah" of all phones, you dont have to like that, but you really can't deny it.

and on 1st gen as well, they are a mere speck of what they are to become.

look at the difference between the first ipod and the ipod touch, thats only 6 years evolution.

the superiority of this device is a great thing, as it has woken up the whole industry and i'f that isn't a 'saviour' then what is?

as users we deserve the standards it has now set.

this new rip off could well turn out to be a great device, and companies will unashamebly rip off the iphone as there can't be much wrong with being 2nd best to the iphone, if i was in the market, i think thats where i' like to be, an aggressively different device, such as most of the new nokias only get the brownie points for tech used, though none in the user expeiriance and glimpse of the future.

as i said, i'm waiting patiently for 3rd gen iphone before i get involved with them, they really have only just begun.
i can only hope my lg prada holds out as long! i'm on my 2nd screen replacement! and there is no software available for it, you'd think with an interface based phone i'd be able to customise the device in some way.

the 1st gen iphone as a mere piece of hardware will be no different in 7 years as the little g3 imacs that are still sitting in bedrooms running tiger.

its a design classic, the prada is not.]]>Dec 14th 2007 3:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/
Hell, yeah. I'll GLADLY do without multi-touch for THAT.]]>Dec 14th 2007 3:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/
The Prada phone was on the market a whole 3 months before the iPhone shipped. If Apple designers bought and purchased one to judge the feel of their already completed product, then they must have been extremely satisfied considering how cheap the Prada feels in your hand compared to the iPhone.

"Then the same goes for the Meizu miniOne, because (on the sheet, addmitedly) it's way more advanced than the iPhone."

How does the same go for Meizu when Apple proved their product by having it on the market for 6 months? You're comparing specs on a sheet that detail what Meizu hopes will come true to a device that actually exists? Specs that have already dwindled from what Meizu initially announced and will likely be changed even further?

There is no comparison, Marky. ]]>Dec 14th 2007 4:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/

You may want to reserve judgment till this thing is ACTUALLY OUT. God knows how long this ballyhoo has been going on for. It's easy to write spec sheets, but slightly harder to release a successful product that does all it promises. ]]>Dec 14th 2007 3:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/Dec 14th 2007 3:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/
Oh wait! I keep forgetting this handset doesn't exist except on paper, so all the things it will be able to do means squat.

They got the nerve to call this an iPhone knock-off. This piss-poor copy of an iPhone oughta be shot out of a cannon into the Pacific Ocean.

This crappy battle cry of "I'll be happy to get it as long as it's cheaper than the iPhone" is so sad. They need to wear a T-shirt saying "I only buy goods that are cheap and I'm proud of it." No expensive items for these people. I'm not buying a Mercedes, I want a Yugo instead.

Bow down to the iPhone, the world's mobile messiah. Grovel at it's feet, you WinMo chumps.]]>Dec 14th 2007 4:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/

and i, for one, think the phone looks great.....i usually hate fakes, but if this thing has all the features it promises, maybe apple will get a clue to include 3G. for the time being, though, i'm sticking with my sprint power vision phone and a regular iPod touch. which also includes double the capacity of the phone for the same price.]]>Dec 14th 2007 4:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/http://www.walgreens.com/search/search_results.jsp?_dyncharset=ASCII&term=meizu&x=0&y=0]]>Dec 14th 2007 4:12PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/Dec 14th 2007 5:51PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/Dec 14th 2007 6:40PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/Dec 14th 2007 4:43PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/

A few thrills of the multi-touch technology, and well, yeah, for the price it's quite a good all in one entertainment phone.

But the format of video supported is poor.

Looking forward for the MiniOne's release, hoping for a second phone anyway, it seems to be a much better (proposed spec) phone than the iPhone.]]>Dec 14th 2007 9:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/Dec 14th 2007 9:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/Dec 14th 2007 10:15PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/Dec 15th 2007 12:45AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/Dec 14th 2007 9:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/Dec 15th 2007 12:17AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/14/meizu-mocks-up-the-m8-minione/
