  • To N.R. Just because you don't carry extra batteries doesn't mean that other people don't. Plus this phone seems like it is trying to get a piece of the business consumer market as well and the general public. For business not having an extra battery can mean the difference of being able to make an important call after checking your e-mail or not. You cannot always be in a place where you can be charging all the time. Meeting, airplane, and long car trips with out access to the car lighter outlet, or don't have one. To beeblebrox, When talking about computers there is next to nothing that has not been riped off, stolen, or adapted from. Although the meizu m8 seems to look a lot like the apple iphone and even have the same layout doesn't mean it's an exact replica. Granted meizu m8's CEO/owner even mentioned they changed the look of the meizu m8 after the announcement of the iphone. That doesn't mean they riped it off. Just means they noticed a good design and followed suit. There are only so many ways to do a rectangle phone. And that's possibly a step up from apple who announced their phone after other models which look the same as well. Does that mean apple ripped them off? Besides all of this fighting for who ripped who off I think is silly. Leave that to the corporate lawyers to decide. For me I just want a phone that meets my needs and want. I still don't see a perfect phone for me but it's getting closer and I am excited about the evolution of the Mobile phone. I wish more people could share innovative ideas and work together to get devices that were better instead of bickering I found this first and so you have to do something else and so you can't help me make this better at all so there! Ridiculous. For me I hope open source takes over and takes care of all of this bickering.

  • I would have to somewhat agree on the megapixel is not everything. Although I don't totally agree that a 3MP camera is not better than a 2MP camera is of course it is. But there are definatly different factors like lens and optics. But in this particular case I would have to think that both phone would have a similar lense and optics. One might be slightly better than the other but not significantly. There for the higher MP camera trumps.

  • You should also write an artivle comparing the Openmoko Neo1973/Iphone/Meizu m8/any other contender. Or just the Neo1973/Iphone or neo1973/Meizu m8. I think the neo1973 has a lot of real potential. It's cheap and offers a full opensource linux kernel that is fully modifiableble. Which most people think that's lame I am not a geek and don't really know how to do that stuff. That's the fun part is there are so many geeks out there that will mod it that you will be able to get pretty much what ever you want on it for free. They are also currently working on introducing the touchtscreen and wifi to the product if possible, no promises, and if not this model then definatly future models. It also has a higher screen resolution and has an interchangeable battery unlike the meizu m8 or the iphone. Which is way lame by the way. Especially with their short use time. With spare batteries 10 - 12 hour trips would be relativly pain free. They also use a similar battery that the nokia's use so there are plenty of cheap aftermarket batteries. If your interested take a look at www.openmoko.org. I think this has a lot more promise than the meizu m8.
