I've updated my device to the latest Stable build and here are my initial feedbacks:

1. They said in the changelog that there have been several bug fixes but the biggest of them all ~ the infamous "launcher bug" is still very much there. The launcher bug reverts the launcher back to the system launcher after every reboot. If you have a custom launcher like Nova, then you'll have to set it as the default one after every reboot. This has been reported so many times, yet nothing has been done.

2. Cell broadcast option is still not available. (Good job Meizu!)

3. I don't see any major improvements in ram management. I'll keep you updated if there's any drastic changes in this regard.

4. I didn't use the device for long enough to comment about the battery life, let's hope that they haven't fúcked that up.

5. The android security patch is from April, which raises a couple of important questions:
Why not the latest security patch?
Was this update originally scheduled for April/May and was delayed as usual?

6. I really hope that this is not the same 6.1.4.1G update with April security patch and a different serial number. I know how crazy that sounds but that is the level of trust I have left in Meizu.

7. Alas, to all the forum members, for the last two weeks we have incessantly irritated the company by asking for updates. I won't go far as to say that this update is a direct result of our shared hardwork but there is something to learn from this. If we are adamant in our demands and keep asking for the services that we truly deserve, then maybe, just maybe, they'll be forced to listen to our pleas and end up doing something.
So, please be united and keep asking for updates when they are due.
In today's world, only the crybabies get attention. So, I say to you, keep crying louder, together.

Peace.
