Meizu

If you're wondering where minimalism in smartphone design will lead, Meizu has an idea. The Chinese phone maker just unveiled the Meizu Zero, a seamless slab of ceramic and glass that has no buttons, no speaker grille, and no charging port. No holes at all, in fact – with two very small exceptions.

Chinese manufacturer Meizu took a big leap toward getting to the top of the smartphone pile with the announcement of its Meizu PRO 6 which, it claims, is the first deca-core smartphone on the planet.​

After the M8 ran into legal probems, Meizu hopes to come back with the M9 and MII.

No-one is in any doubt about how hot the iPhone since its June 2007 birth. Fueling the hype on the basis that “imitation is the most sincere form of flattery” are a bunch of phones spied by Todd Robbins this week in Bangkok.
