Meizu M6 miniPlayer
flash-based portable media player
The M6 miniPlayer, from Meizu, was a flash-based portable media player released in the 2000s. It played audio files in MP3, WMA, WAV, FLAC, APE and Ogg and plays AVI video playback (using the XVID codec) on a 2.4-inch QVGA screen. The Mini Player included an FM tuner, voice recorder, calendar, stopwatch, calculator, a basic ebook reader for TXT files, and two games.
History
The M6 was from Meizu's digital audio player group. Accordingly, it was available only in certain parts of the world including the United States, Australia, France, Russia and more. Though the M6 supports many audio formats, the US release did not support MP3s because of licensing issues. Apparently, workarounds are available using specific firmware upgrades.
Dane-Elec formed a deal with Meizu to distribute the M6, apparently resolving MP3 licensing issues. Many European models distributed by Dane‐Elec had disabled FM tuners because of EU import duties; this could also be remedied by a firmware update.
Jasmine France rated the M6 as a quality alternative to the iPod Nano.

A concise life account rarely captures disputed attribution, private networks or the changing language used to describe a career.

Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
