Meizu has a bit of a reputation for copying other devices, namely the iPhone.  So when CEO Jack Wong announced that the new M9 will boast a screen resolution of 960 x 640, the same as Apple’s Retina display, familiar red flags were raised. Wong also iterated that the device will feature a heavily customized version of Android 2.2, and is anticipating it will be released by the end of this yearm and with demo units landing in October.  We’re hoping the M9 will be more than just an iPhone clone, and will in fact serve as an example for more manufacturers to strive for better displays.
