Gizchina News of the week
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?
