Meizu MiniOne / M8 iPhone ripoff prototype photos leaked, Meizu M9 coming in 2009?

Meizu, a Chinese producer of electronics whose sole job seems to be producing iPhone and iPod Touch fakes, is apparently getting close to releasing its Apple ripoff Meizu MiniOne. Looks like the company has already got a prototype of the new handset, as some pictures of it were already leaked on the company’s forums.

The design features of the prototype model are said to be developed thanks to the feedback from the early M8 model shots. It looks slightly different from the previously available photos, and that’s what makes it less similar to an iPhone and more similar to the iPod Touch as well.

But most likely not many people will be able to get their hands on a Meizu M8/Minione, as due to obvious violation of Apple’s copyright it is expected to be available only on the Chinese market.

Furthermore, according to the source of these shots the company expects to launch a successor to the Meizu Minione/M8 in 2009, appropriately codenamed Meizu M9.

    Yes, clonning is a problem, and some firms “feels free”
    to make similar things, considereing that all will be OK than!
    There is another example:
    PenAgain clone is design stollen from ringpen idea.
    And penagain guys declare thier clone as “new revolution” on the market! As with Meizu case, they make scandal publicity moving in shadow of firm, that makes original.

    But always: original is better than clone.

    I tried the ringpen, its a scam for the price they charge. I saw it in a store and it had dust on it. The owner said he could not give it away. I also think ist highly unlikely someone would want to copy the design, this guy is just trying to flatter himself.
