And most people won't know the difference in specs between the Meizu and the iPhone. Most consumers know apple, know the iPhone, and if they ever see this phone, the only thing they'll think is "iPhone copycat". This phone by no means will "kill the iPhone" as they limited themselves in that way the moment they copied the design. It will always end up being a second-hand copycat phone to the iPhone. And really, I'd be completely happy with a phone coming out that has better specs than the iPhone, and can potentially "kill" it. I'd want that phone. Like.. my dream phone at the moment.. a matured Android OS on a HTC Touch HD (drool). But it needs to be a phone with originality, innovation, and its own uniqueness. <br><br>Anytime you make something that looks too similar to something already made, it will never beat it. If you're going to beat the iPhone, you need to introduce something new, not just something old. Yes, we may be able to sit there and point out all these faults with the iPhone, but at the end of the day, the iPhone will be an iPhone, and the Meizu will be.. a Meizu? No. Not in most people's minds; it'll be the iPhone-clone, whether you want it to be or not. The makers of Meizu chose that route, obviously trying to use the iPhone's hype to its own advantage, because they do not have a big enough name to come out with a random new phone to really have a chance at making a dent in these giant cellphone companies. And, probably they'll sell more phones this way, than trying the latter route, and they decided to do it to make more money. They reached up to where they can reach, and knew their limits. <br><br>So, yes, this may be a well spec-ed phone, but let's not go overboard and start saying it'll "kill" this or "kill" that. It is what it is.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[David]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 28th 2008 2:13PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/28/meizu-m8-unboxed-before-december-8th-launch/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/28/meizu-m8-unboxed-before-december-8th-launch/</guid><description><![CDATA[Instinct, Storm, G1? These companies don't need topple the iphone. there is a difference between having the most popular single phone and being the top cell phone maker. These companies want sales and profit. And they get it through several phones. Right now Samsung is the U.S.'s leading cellphone provider selling more handsets. They may not have one that sells like the iphone but in total they have more. RIM and Google aren't exactly doing bad either.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ddub]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 28th 2008 2:44PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/28/meizu-m8-unboxed-before-december-8th-launch/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/28/meizu-m8-unboxed-before-december-8th-launch/</guid><description><![CDATA[I'll take one, please.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Xavier]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 28th 2008 6:51AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/28/meizu-m8-unboxed-before-december-8th-launch/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/28/meizu-m8-unboxed-before-december-8th-launch/</guid><description><![CDATA[Ditto!<br><br>I cannot wait to see a formal video review of the UI in action!!!<br><br>___________________________________<br>anyone see the article just underneath?<br><br>Sony Ericsson X1 fuselage cracking a number of quality problems may appear to be recalled<br><br>Ha Ha! eat it up Sorny boys!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[iEye]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 28th 2008 8:43AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/28/meizu-m8-unboxed-before-december-8th-launch/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/28/meizu-m8-unboxed-before-december-8th-launch/</guid><description><![CDATA[Of course you want one, check out those captions.<br><br>"Tears finally see the M8"<br>"Touch under the M8, feel good"<br>"But the back is a fingerprint Wang" (WHA?)<br>"Parts of the M8, the iPhone is a feeling, but the victory in the battery can be replaced"<br><br>I'm sold!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[AVG]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 28th 2008 10:22AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/28/meizu-m8-unboxed-before-december-8th-launch/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/28/meizu-m8-unboxed-before-december-8th-launch/</guid><description><![CDATA[hahaha. a cheap iPhone wannabe. such a rip-off. disgusting china. ewww!!!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Doc]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 28th 2008 7:00AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/28/meizu-m8-unboxed-before-december-8th-launch/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/28/meizu-m8-unboxed-before-december-8th-launch/</guid><description><![CDATA[Psst.. where do you think your iPhone is made of?

After all there's only so much that you can change in Windows Mobile when you are not MS ... <br><br>What I can't figure out is how is the M8 circumventing Apple's patents.

Meizu also had an OS to work with, in this case WinCE.
