Core Viewpoint - Meizu, a long-established Chinese smartphone manufacturer, is facing a critical juncture, with rumors of its mobile business effectively ceasing operations and a potential delisting by March 2026, while its core automotive business FlymeAuto will operate independently within Geely's framework [1][2]. Group 1: Business Operations and Challenges - Meizu's mobile business is reportedly on the verge of termination, with the planned launch of the Meizu 23 series in 2026 already halted [2]. - Internal turmoil is evident, with a significant number of employees leaving the company, and reports of unpaid supplier debts since mid-2022 [1][2]. - The rising costs of components, particularly memory prices expected to increase by 40%-50% in Q1 2026, are squeezing the margins of smaller manufacturers like Meizu [2][3]. Group 2: Historical Context and Market Position - Meizu was once a pioneer in the Chinese smartphone market, achieving sales of over 500 million yuan within five months of launching its first smartphone, the M8, in 2009 [3]. - The company experienced rapid growth, with total sales exceeding 20 million units from August 2014 to August 2015, marking a 350% year-on-year increase [3]. - However, after 2016, strategic missteps and increased competition led to a decline, with Meizu's market share dropping to below 1% [5]. Group 3: Strategic Shifts and Future Directions - Following Geely's acquisition in July 2022, there were ambitious plans to return Meizu to the top five in the mid-to-high-end market within three years, but these goals have not materialized [6]. - In early 2024, Meizu announced a shift away from traditional smartphone development towards an "All in AI" strategy, focusing on AI devices and XR smart glasses, but this has not translated into significant sales [6][7]. - Geely's strategy now appears to involve shedding the unprofitable mobile hardware business as part of a broader resource integration effort [7].
