29 July 2019
Mass layovers and resignations at the top are just part of Meizu's hardships.

Maybe if their phones worked outside of India and China with more LTE bands, maybe it would've gotten better considering its value is pretty good.

    One of the few that used exynos chips instead of rubbish mediatek. Software and camera let them down z also n went out of China too late. Xiaomi Huawei run things now

      yeah, good looking phones, good specs...but, no updates, no acessories, no nothings....

      Meizu is a hard sale when we have Xiaomi, vivo, OPPO...

      They need to improve something, people working there in R&D should not be fired, but instead make them do updates for the phones and pay a little more for the enforts.

        Gsmarena should had showed a bit more support for meizu phones.
        I always read their meizu reviews.
        I think Meizu 16 series was a major push for them to get on top with a refined full featured and value for money product. I warmed up to buy it but a review never came and they also stopped supporting the global version probably due to low sales.

          Meizu has great hardware but terrible software. It would be much better if they got bought by some bigger company which can tweak the software propelry

            Poor meizu I am sorry for them.

              Lmao

              Meizu's UI is the only decent UI in Chinese smartphones and their design is so much better, they don't try to look like everyone else.

                Wow, it's almost as if having terrible availability and support makes you lose sales

                  Meizu signed deals with major carriers.
                  They are closing shops because they won't need them.

                        I really liked Meizu's multimedia-focused "style" smartphones and its overall identity. I'm not a fan of Chinese brands, but Meizu was one that I adored for some reason. Hope they don't go broke.

                              It get big, really big, in 2015 but never put as much into R&D as Huawei, Xiaomi and BBK.

                                World is looking at the next great recession. Triggers will be China and USA. Of course effects will spillover massively across the world. Next 1 - 1.5 years are the timeframe for it to be triggered.

                                We are already seeing slowdown and massive debts across the world. Now the time awaits the bubble burst. For example China's overall debt has reached 303% of the GDP.
