iPhone is coming in to Asia market in 2008, there is no surprise that we’d see plenty of iPhone-clones coming up in Asia before iPhone launched in 2008. Well, the copycats phenomenon has become a norm in Asia market, China.
M8, the rumored product of Meizu, which looks much like an iPhone, but it was first reported having no mobile phone function, which was said as purely a MiniPlayer, the newer version of its M6. The M8 was first said to feature a 533MHz Samsung ARM processor, a 2.6-inch screen & loaded with the Windows CE OS.
This is something that we’ve seldom seen before , i.e an MP3 player with Windows CE loaded. Due its “imitation of design” of the iPhone, the touch-screen feature is difinitely a must.
According to Engadget, the post by a senior discussion-forum jockey on the Meizu site, the M8 is now said to measure in at a scant 57×105x11.5-mm & packs both a GSM & Chinese TD-SCDMA 3G radio, a 3.3-inch 720×480 pixel display, Bluetooth, a 3 megapixel camera, & an ARM11 CPU capable of recording video at 30fps at the device’s full 720 x 480 resolution. GSM, camera, Windows CE loaded? A smartphone? A PDA ? I guess it could be a change of direction by Meizu in to producing an iPhone clone in lieu of only an MP3 player due to the overwhelming buzz of iPhone. Will Apple take any action on this ?
