Meizu M8 PMP looks eerily familiar

meizu m8

Does this phone look familiar? It looks like something else, but I just can't put my finger on it — oh! Now I see! It looks almost exactly like the overhyped Apple iPhone coming later this year! Well, what's the difference between this and the iPhone?

Well, this guy, known as the Meizu M8 PMP, comes to us from China, land of the knockoffs. This looks to be a pretty awesome knockoff, however, looking to stand on its own against the Goliath it's imitating. It actually has some steps up from the iPhone, with a better camera, WinCE OS, and TV-out for playing your videos on a bigger screen. No word on whether or not it has that fancy touchscreen that the iPhone has, but I'm going to go ahead and guess that it doesn't. In any case, it was only a matter of time before the iPhone got Xeroxed. Now we just need to get this thing in our hands so we can see if it lives up to its inspiration.
