Meizu M8’s New Interface Almost Makes Me Want It

Meizu M8, maybe the most legendary knockoff gadget around, maintains its “inspired” tradition with a refreshed UI that feels faintly of the Palm Pre in terms of graphical styling. I like it, even if I know, really, I’d hate it.

    The new UI hasn't been released yet, so no, you can't have them yet :p Once it's released, though, they'll be available almost instantly from M8Fans or MeizuMe. If you're interested in the original icon set, check out those two sites.

    Meizu works with EICO, a small Chinese design house. Google their website; they do nice work and have a pretty impressive client list.

    The UI is nice but the icons could use some work.

    I wonder what could Meizu could make if they had the capital to actually hire designers and design stuff

    @esoterica: Actually, they misspelled "colander", a draining feature exclusive to the M8.

    A lot of people hate on meizu, but I had an M6 and it's one of my favorite MP3 players. Hell, I'd take that over even the new nanos any day. There products are quality.

    @esoterica:
    Well it's 99% for the Chinese market so why does it matter?

    Misspelling "calendar" is a sure way to tell how much refinement went into it.
