When will Apple, or more precisely its competitors, ever stop. The iPod came out so long ago, and even to this day it’s the bar with which you have to compete, every new MP3 player that comes out is an iPod killer. There is no Zune killer (maybe because it did a pretty good job on its own) there isn’t a Sansa killer, only a bunch of iPod killers.
Well that’s the goal of the Meizu M7, to be the iPod Touch Killer. The specs include a 2.81” touch screen at 480×288 pixels with a 15:9 ratio. The actual device dimensions are 89×48x7.3 millimeters. It can play H.264 at 720×480 a 30fps via its TV out port.
It will be available in 2, 4, and 8 gigabyte capacities ranging in price from 70 euros all the way up to 110 euros. The worst part is it looks, and appears to act, almost exactly like an iPod Touch that’s white and doesn’t have a dock connector. Its all the other features of the iPod Touch that make it the better choice, starting first with the fact its guaranteed to be yet another high quality product from Apple instead of some knockoff junk.

Yeah, you also forgot to mention that the Meizu M7 is only a proof-of-concept prototype rendering created to judge public interest, and doesn’t actually exist…and an actual M7 based on this design would be slated, according to Meizu, for introduction in late 2008. Yes, that’s not a typo. Late 2008. Any chance that Apple’s just going to sit on their big fat asses that long? Um, no.
Will the Meizu M7 have Wi-fi?
