Meizu M8 at CeBIT 2008
Meizu’s M8 cell phone will definitely invoke comparisons of it with the iPhone. You can’t blame people for doing that, since the form factor itself is eerily similar to that of Apple’s high flying handset. The M8 is still in its prototype stage, and chances are it will take quite a while more before the final hardware and software is ready for production. The screen as shown at CeBIT 2008 looks crisp and bright, but as we all know, it is all about the user interface. Will Apple’s legal eagles swoop down on the M8?

Other features include speakerphone function, an LCD display, USB charging, 8 hours of playback time and 200 hours of standby time. No idea on how much it costs though.

3-in-1 ExtUSB Headphone Adapter
Do you happen to own a HTC-based product? Well, there is now a 3-in-1 ExtUSB Headphone Adapter that enables you to use a standard 3.5mm stereo headphone with your HTC devices instead of HTC’s proprietary headphones which frankly, aren’t up to par when it comes to audio performance. Not only that, you will be able to hook up a microphone to it as well while the additional USB port offers an extra avenue for charging your HTC device. It retails for an affordable $15 a pop.
Asus ZX1 Lamborghini Branded Phone
Asus is launching their ZX1 touch screen phone which will be branded by Lamborghini. It will run on the Windows Mobile 6 Pro (probably 6.1) Operating System when it arrives and feature a full touch screen which will be a completely flat display integrated in to the housing just like an iPhone. On the connectivity side we will see 3G data support, GPS, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and it will be powered by a 520MHz Qualcomm processor.
With the ZX1 being branded by Lamborghini this means you will see the regular Lamborghini colors for the casing of the phone which I assume will be yellow and black. However, I do hope that an equivalent of the ZX1 will hit the market with out the Lamborghini brand as it seems that the famous badge is only there to increase the price for no real reason.
The phone will be launched in Europe during the summer and without a contract it will set you back 650 EUR ($981 USD at today’s exchange rate). With a contract you can expect the price to be greatly reduced.
There are no actual picture of the Asus ZX1 yet. The one up above is just a mock up from an older Asus phone.
