Could the UMi X1 be making a comeback? UMi say ‘Yes’ and recent E-commerce listings confirm the arrival of the refreshed new phone!
The UMi X1 launched back in 2012 as a flagship dual-core smarpthone with 720p display, earlier this year it was reintroduced as the UMi X1S with quad-core MT6595 quad-corechipset.
For 2014 the X1 is set to launch once again as the UMi X1Pro with an all new design, chipset and low price. The X1Pro actually looks like a tempting Hongmi replacement and features a 1.3Ghz MT6582 chipset, 1GB RAM, Android 4.2 and a 4.7-inch 720p display. The design of the phone gets a HTC One look from the front and a Nubia Z5 on the rear, which is also where you will find a rear facing camera which may be a 5MP or 8MP unit.
According to this Pandawill listing which GizChina reader Romanos sent over to us, the UMi X1Pro will cost $119.99. Good price or overpriced?
