The company broke its promise Yesterday we learned that in China Xiaomi was fined for cheating in advertising a smartphone. Today it turned out that a similar fate befell Meizu. Discuss
Meizu introduced the Meizu 18 series of smartphones in March 2021. At the same time, the company promised that smartphones will offer a “clean” operating system without ads, malware and push notifications. However, the company did not keep its word. In November, smartphones showed ads.
For this Meizu was fined more than 25 thousand yuan (about 300 thousand rubles). The company was not even saved by the fact that it removed ads from the OS rather quickly. However, in fact, the company broke its promise to users.
As a result, Meizu generally abandoned the above strategy. Therefore, Meizu 18 and Meizu 18 Pro will remain the only smartphones from the company with a “clean” OS.
