It's beginning to look like
UMi fans based in
India will be able to get their hands on the
1080 quad-core UMi X2 sooner rather than later as an engineering model has turned up there for testing.
After speaking to our sources at UMi, the sample shown here is likely a pre-production model running 1GB RAM like the one featured in
this video, still it gives UMi fans hope that the
phone will arrive sooner rather than later.
We have previously seen full exterior photos of the UMi X2 and are happy to say that the test model in India appears to feature the same design with no nasty surprises (unlike the Lando X2).
What these new photos do show us though is the 5-inch 1080 display and it seems to be very crisp and clear when browsing the web.
Like you, we can't wait to see the real
phone once it is
launched, and hope that UMi are able to optimise the
quad-core MT6589 processor to run with 2GB ASAP to prevent a prolonged delay.
The UMi
X2 is expected to finally launch in April at a price of 1499 Yuan ($241) in China. The
phone features a 5-inch full HD display,
quad-core MT6589 CPU,
2GB RAM and
13 mega-pixel rear
camera.
Thanks to Rafy for the tip!
