Colour me intrigued. I want more manufactures that go against the norm. If they put out a generic slab with normal specs at an expected price, I won't be very interested, but if they do something cool I'm all for it

Except I just noticed the part where it's developed by Meizu so nevermind probably will be a generic Chinese phone

For a Chinese manufacturer

Huh, didn't realize Volvo was primarily owned by a Chinese company, you got me there lol, genuinely always thought they were standalone and therefore a Swedish company

Geely buys European car brands left and right. Somewhat recent examples are Lotus and Smart.

Interesting, hadn't heard of it before today, but guess I don't look at European car brands that often anyways

They are still a Swedish company, they are just owned by a Chinese company (Geely).

Ah I mean fair enough :) I don't keep up much with car brands and ownerships, but still TIL haha
