Could you comment on the headphone output of the M3, is it not very high? Will I get enough sound volume using, say, the stock headphones that come with it?
Is the M6's output higher?

[Almoxil]

I don't know the numbers for the output power from the headphone jack on M3 and M6, but I can say that they will drive your regular earphones/IEMs easily. For instance, I can't listen to music through my CK7s on any volume level higher than 20 - 22 (I would go deaf). I usually listen to music on volume levels 17 - 20 (of 40 levels).

Around 20-22 with the stock earphones. 25-28 with my IEMs OVC T11.

The Meizu's do sound very good.

Anyone know what power adapter I can use with this player? Just bought one and would really like to be able to charge it in a socket.

I have a Creative AC wall charger for my old Zen Micro, and it works just fine with my M3.

Hello Almoxil,

Do you know if the Meizu M3 and M6 do bookmarking for audiobook mp3's?

Thanks,
J

Hello, J.

I'm affraid not. I done a quick check with my M3, and couldn't find any feature similar to bookmarking.

Regards.

I'm liking everything about the player so far; my only gripes are some competitive choices between a cheap-yet-memory-heavy iriver h10, another zen V plus, or the 8gb M3; my main hits being sound quality/flexibility, menu speed/blind control (just basic play/pause, next, volume whilst in the pocket), and durability. I'm unsure about the first one, but the latter is what makes me a bit anxious.

Seeing as I wasn't as careful as I ought to have been with my first zen (who's sound quality was alright when I fidgeted with EQ), I was hoping in investing in some armor for the M3 should I choose it...any added bulk wouldn't matter, seeing how slim it is. As unsexy as it sounds, even a thick tire-rubber case would be just awesome

There are some silicon cases and crystal hard cases for the Meizu M3 at eBay. I think they'll be enough to protect it against scratches, although the crystal case won't be very useful against falls. Since it's made of hard plastic, the force of any impact on the ground will be fully transferred to the player's body.

About using the player inside the pocket, the M3 doesn't have tactile controls other than the "M", "play/pause" and "<>" buttons. So, starting/pausing the playback and switching to the next (or previous) track won't be a problem, I guess. The problem will happen when trying to change the volume, since it's done by sliding or tapping the touchpad, and doing that blindly is somehow difficult.

Despite that, the M3 has excellent sound quality. I have an 8 GB black M3, and it's a great audio player.

Hmm. As posted in the vision: m section, I've returned my ZVM due to a defect; J&R seems to handle it quite well, only I'm requesting a refund rather than a trade off, because lately I got wind of both great deals + awesome battery life from the latest m6 firmware update.

Over the weekend in Canada, I found myself quite disappointed at the ZVM's battery life; however, this wasn't a surprise since it's an HD-based player. Also, the addition of awesome video and space caused my psychological melt down in encoding and organizing videos; needless to say, I think that the extra space caused me MORE grief than my initial optimism. In the first night I ended up spending 5+ hours caving in on 2 movies that simply would not encode no matter which apps I used..hahahah...(._.);; I'll stick to clips, thanks.

As soon as my account is credited, I'll see into the meizu line, probably through newegg's deal involving paypal.

However I have yet *another* question regarding the M3's battery; since you own the 8gb, can you note any change in playing hours? Seeing as the M6 got at least a 50% increase, it would tickle my pickle if the same were to apply for the M3...


======================
EDIT: I read your reply in the "Other Players" section, and it seems that the m3 is still, and will be, stuck at the 15-hour cap for some time. Also, the skip-button seems rather unfriendly...I'm a touch-typist, and pretty much like all of my functions happen faster than my fingers can move :-) Thanks again, Almoxil; we need more people like you around here :-)
