Despite making a Meizu phone that looks way too close to the iPhone to be a coincidence, the latest news about Meizu ripping off an artist to pimp their work is off-base. It’s true that someone placed Deviant Art artist Lithium Picnic’s photo onto a Meizu M8, but it turns out that the image was actually rendered by a fan on Meizu’s forums. Not that it makes things any more legit, but Meizu themselves aren’t to blame for this round of appropriating someone else’s work and calling it their own. [Meizu]
