There are only so many styles a phone can have. Does this mean a style dictates the limitation to what a phone will look like in the future? Give me a break! Apple and American retailers are just upset that the Meizu is bringing so much technology (which North American networking infrastructure is not ready for) in this little device. It's future ready. The reality is that American retailers want to sell you inferior products in order to slowly introduce better stuff later so you will get milked for more cash when you "need" to upgrade. Simply put, on paper, this thing blows the iPhone away. If Apple really stands behind its products, it would not have to worry about the M8. What are they so afraid of...a little competition? Isn't that the capitalist way? Oh, yea. They have to think of something better. Oh but wait! Isn't that the capitalist way? Fueling inovation through competition? The US is a pseudo capitalist democracy!!!
