m6 note is my first meizu device. i am very pleased with the overal experience .to come to this statement i put together the phone mqterial quility and the premium feeling of the device,the quality of the hardware used,the not bug free but generaly solid performance ,the great photography .what i dont have with a meizu phone is the customizotion of android .and by this i mean first the custom rom availability and the stock android experience.and second the urge from meizu to be a closed system.and this is against the android filosophy in general which is all about customization and modification.that closed all in one system attitude from them also means very litle not at all android version updates and focusing on the flyme ui which is of huge importance dor them.if someone can leave with that meizu can give a great smartphone experience

unfortunately "There is no news if m6 note will get Android 8.1"
