KanagaDeepan 1,084 Report post Posted January 3, 2011 Front of the phone (excluding buttons) looks like iPhone... But specs are very good and price is also OK.. Sure our rebranded ch!nese phone makers like Micromax wont look at these phones.. All they look at is Rs50 per KG Android phones from China and paste their company stickers on them.. They are damaging Android image than helping it to reach masses, imho... Only phones like LG O1, Samsung Galaxy 3 sort of handsets may help Android in reaching masses or atleast VFM conscious customers of India (read MOST Indians) who are waiting eagerly to try Android.. May be Olive or Huwaei also bring some decent specced and VFM Android phones to India... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

digitalnirvana 646 Report post Posted January 3, 2011 The last photo was taken by some Android website it seems, lol that explains. Android > Apple. But really this looks great. Similar in looks to iPhone, it is like an iPhone running Android. Great price. The chinese are really delivering some great hardware, and software too. There is huge hype around MIUI (google for the youtube video for MIUI ROM on Android) which was made by Chinese. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rajanmehta 4,056 Report post Posted May 3, 2011 Chinese Android Beauty Meizu M9 Gets Gingerbread Android 2.3 Update Source Also known as an alleged Chinese ripoff of iPhone, this Android smartphone from Meizu has got the Gingerbread update. Launched with FroYo on-board on January 1 this year, it didn't take long to get the 2.3 goodness. While some users are reporting odd issues with the new update, otherwise the reports are positive. In other reports, M9's Quadrant scores have crossed the roof after this update Yes really [see the pic below]. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
