What do meizu Ubuntu mobile phones mean?

What is meizu's intention to publish UbuntuPhone in CES2014? A meizu employee explained: for a mobile phone manufacturer who is interested in the future, it is dangerous to have bet on an OS. From a market perspective, Android is indeed big, and as Google's efforts are gradually standardizing, there seems to be nothing to worry about now. However, from the perspective of technical reserves, we made another preparation during the Rising period of Android. When Android is impacted one day in the future, there will be another option, which won't be so embarrassing. Large enterprises rely on

What is meizu's intention to publish Ubuntu Phone in CES2014? One meizu employee explained:

For a mobile phone manufacturer who is interested in the future, it is dangerous for him to be in the same OS.

From a market perspective, Android is indeed big, and as Google's efforts are gradually standardizing, there seems to be nothing to worry about now. However, from the perspective of technical reserves, we made another preparation during the Rising period of Android. When Android is impacted one day in the future, there will be another option, which won't be so embarrassing.

Even a huge family of companies, relying on Android such as Samsung, are all playing Bada and Tizen, although to some extent there is also the shadows of National Engineering.

All in all, the bloody example of the smartphone industry is coming soon: Just two years after the peak and death of Symbian, Nokia of maobao Windows Phone was the final winner. (Do not spray WP powder, but leave Elop alone. This is a fact)

Meizu's transformation from M8 to M9 also experienced the pain of no Plan B. However, during M8, meizu's R & D capabilities were weak and there was no more choice. When there are more good options, why not try?

Geek fan er, born for fans all over the world

Geek fan's fever does not give you a bunch of options to make you toss (fade in and fade out or classic rebound? Brush the special effect package of 9-tailed fox or XX Special Effect package ?), It is open from the bottom layer. Introduce the most mass-based Linux to release the potential of Geek.

Think about HTC's HD2. In XDA, this is a rare thing. Whenever HD2 does something incredible. This effect of word-of-mouth marketing, which has been directly applied to the base camp of foreign enthusiasts, has been sold in the market, and the effect is good. You should be aware of it.

Please note that this is not the result that HTC intentionally guides. What kind of effect will this have if it works with commercial guidance?

OPPO N1 is trying to copy this product to CM. However, meizu is doing more thoroughly this time.

At present, it seems that there are not many mainstream mobile phone devices that can be used by overseas enthusiasts. Especially top-level hardware + top-level appearance + top-level workmanship. As you can see, the mobile phones used by Firefox OS are actually at the level of Huaqiang north. In fact, there is not much sincerity. Unlike meizu, it plays with Ubuntu Touch with a one-year flagship.

Therefore, Geek also needs life and aesthetics. If meizu is able to develop a mobile phone compatible with Ubuntu Touch and update it synchronously from MX3, it will satisfy the demands of Geek, it also satisfies Geek's daily usage (not to miss his girlfriend's phone number) and looks not so dark. Why ?!

In my imagination, apart from the Geek who liked meizu in China, it should also have a good reputation and market performance in overseas markets.

PS: related ecosystem.

Meizu is a hardware vendor with good reputation and mass base. Although the shipment volume is not as big as Apple's Samsung Xiaomi, it also belongs to the middle-upstream (please note that we are a single mobile phone ......), In cooperation with Ubuntu, meizu is a mature hardware manufacturer joining the ecosystem, improving the entire Ubuntu Touch community from the top.

Meizu is a commercial company. This means that our factory can spend money and give up the benefits to cultivate the application ecosystem of Ubuntu Touch (refer to the meizu App Store in 2014 to give up sharing ). At the same time, our factory can use commercial operations to expand the application circle together with Canonical.

Ubuntu is a very mature Linux-based desktop OS. The mass base and Community energy cannot be underestimated.
