Meizu updates M3 and M6 digital audio players

Darksaber · May 29, 2007

Meizu became well known with it's own audio/video capable M6 player, which had the same theme as the Apple iPods, but brough video to a much smaller package than the normal Apple counterparts. The M3 looks much like the iPod Nano in dimension. Both players have been updated in design, the M6se is now thinner, while the M3se (pictured below) has become shorter and features a full metal enclosure. Both players should be much cheaper than the Apple variants.

Probably use the same parts too...

Meaning they are probably made by the same company. Im not sure if Apple or Meizu make their own parts or outsource them to a different company.

Apple outsources to Foxconn, all the iPods are made by Foxconn then shipped to the US for branding and firmware.

Looks similar to the iRiver mp3 player...

the guys over at VR Zone did a review of the two models, found here and it seems they are quite decent players. The M6 seems to have most all the features of some of the more expensive PMP devices (though it is up to 4gb flash, no 1.8in hard drive) But I am quite interested in the M8 that is very iphone knock off, but if it does what I want and comes in at a lower price or more options for carrier then I think it would probably sell rather well.
