Meizu M8

The most famous iPhone clone seems ready to hit the market. Unfortunately we have only the bad news to report about it.

First, the price went up – instead $330, the 8GB model will be sold for $400. Not a deal-breaker where I stand. However, the second bad news is that initially only the mentioned 8GB model will be available and it WON’T sport a 3G radio. Nooooooooooo! The 3G-enabled 16GB version — also known as “the real deal” — will be released during the “second phase,” which we interpret as Q2 2008. But then again, we could be wrong…

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.

    I asked a guy directly from Meizu and he told me that the release date will be in 2008 Q1 or Q2. Definitely not before 2008!
