The front of the phone looks just like previous Note-series devices. We have a sharp and bright 5.5” 1080p LCD display. In fact, it looks even better than a great display found on the Redmi Note 4.

The Note 4x is made of metal and it definitely feels premium but I was disappointed that the top and bottom parts of the back plate are made of plastic not like on the all-metal Note 4.

We have a 13MP shooter on the back, which is coupled with the dual-LED flash. Xiaomi phones are known for great fingerprint scanners and the Redmi Note 4x is no exception. You can unlock your phone very quickly straight from the standby mode.

A standard edition of Xiaomi Redmi Note 4x that sports an octa-core Snapdragon 625 chip with the max. clock speeds of 2.0GHz, 3GB of RAM and 32GB of storage, which is also expandable via the microSD card slot. If you are willing to pay extra, you can get a 64GB model with 4GB of RAM.

Popular e-commerce platform Jingdong is currently running its 6.18 mid-year promotion and the Xiaomi flagship store is one of the shops buzzing with lots of interesting activities. The 16.8 promotion started on July 1 and will terminate on July 18 and the period is a time for fans to get their favourite device at awesome discounts. The Jingdong promo is also a time for manufacturers to boost their sales and thus increase their market shares for the year.

On the first day alone, Xiaomi continued its strong showing this year, as the company recorded huge sales on its products lines including mobile phones, Smart TVs, Mi Notebooks, and other smart home appliances. The company has now announced the hot selling products on the first day of the sales. The topmost ranking product which recorded the most sales on the first day is the Xiaomi Redmi Note 4X Jingdong Special Edition. The Redmi Note 4X Jingdong Special Edition was recently added to the family with a slightly reduced price and a lower 3GB + 16GB memory. Apart from the reduced memory version, the Redmi Note 4X Jingdong Special Edition features exactly the same design as the normal version which was released last year. The price tag may likely be the reason why it sold more.

Surprisingly, the Xiaomi Mi 6 is the second highest selling product in Xiaomi’s lineup and this can only be explained by the assumption that there was enough stock of the flagship Mi 6 for the sales. Other products like the super cheap but classy Redmi 4X and Redmi 4A also recorded successes. The Mi TV 4A 55-inch version was also on sale at a 400 Yuan discount price and its performance was impressive. The 59-inch and 65-inch models were also on sale and performed well.

As stated, the sales would run until July 18 and there are lots of Xiaomi products available such as the Mi Air Purifier, Mi Robot Vacuum cleaner, Mi Notebook Air 13.3-inch with a 200 Yuan discount, and much more.

Xiaomi launched the Redmi Note 4X with its beautiful design and modest specs lineup around February this year. The company took things a step further when it announced a limited Hatsune Miku special edition of the model. The Xiaomi Redmi Note 4X Hatsune Miku Edition brings out the sleek and premium design the smartphone features as a result of the attractive color it adorns.

The customised version comes in green paint job only and has a fused antenna band design that is coated in silver. The camera and fingerprint sensor has a silver coated thin ring surrounding them. The sleek design alone doesn’t account for the 1,299 Yuan ($189) price tag the Redmi Note 4X Hatsune Miku edition has got. In addition to the sleek smartphone,  Xiaomi also included a gift box containing a limited edition mobile power bank, a customised casing for the phone as well as the opportunity to download Hatsune theme in the future.

Turns out the Redmi Note 4X Hatsune version is very popular in Japan where the VOLACOID character Hatsune Miku originated from. The smartphone was recently seen in a Japanese retail shop in the Akihabara business district and the price was very shocking. The device was listed up for sale for 49,800 Yen which is about 3,066 Yuan. That is more than twice the original amount the device is sold in China and the poster shows it is the same model with the one sold in China. It is relieving to note that the power bank and other gift items are still included and are not being sold separately. That is likely the handiwork of one smart retailer who, perhaps, paid a premium to get the models imported from China.

The Xiaomi Redmi Note 4X has just got a new Jingdong Special Edition which would go on sale as from May 19. The disclosure was made via a set of posters on Xiaomi’s official flagship store on Jingdong (JD.com). From what we can gather, the main difference of this version from the original model is the price tag.

The  Redmi Note 4X Jingdong Special edition starts at 799 Yuan (~$116) which is 200 Yuan cheaper than the original price of the mid-range smartphone which sells for  999 Yuan. There are no indication that the device has got a different specs lineup different from the standard version which includes a Snapdragon 625 chip and 3GB RAM and more. The model would go up on sale as from May 19 while reservations commenced today.

Now, we expected the Redmi Note 4X Jingdong Special Edition to come in Red color. At least, that’s what it looked like when we saw the teaser yesterday. But today, there is no mention of the Red color model, so probably this special edition will only differ in the price and storage variants.  Note that, unlike the regular edition, that comes in 3GB + 32GB configuration, this cheaper $116 Redmi Note 4X model will come with 3GB + 16GB memory.

With the emergence of the Jingdong Special edition, the Xiaomi Redmi Note 4X now has four versions. There is the high-end version which packs a MediaTek Helio X20 chip with 4GB + 64GB memory. There is also the standard version, packing a Snapdragon 625 chip backed by 3GB RAM and 32GB storage. The Redmi Note 4X Hatsune Miku Special edition is also there and now, a Jingdong Special Edition with a cheaper price and lower memory configuration.

When Xiaomi announced on MIUI Forum that the MIUI 8 China Developer ROM 7.4.20 has been released, the company noted that the update for the Xiaomi Redmi Note 4X was suspended because they were working on MIUI based on Android 7.0 for the device. They also hinted that update for Redmi 3S/3X, Redmi 4X was delayed due to stability test.

The company has indeed been working on the MIUI 8 based on Android 7.0 Nougat and it has been in developer ROM which those running the Global ROM have been able to download for a while now. But the China developer ROM was said to have been in Close Dev all these while and that has now been concluded. The Open Dev ROM, MIUI 8 7.4.27 beta which is based on Android 7.0 Nougat is now available for the Xiaomi Redmi Note 4X and other models. Redmi Note 4X users running the Close Dev ROM can get the update via OTA, while those using the latest MIUI China Developer ROM will get MIUI 8 OTA update notifications on their phones. Alternatively, they can click ‘Updater’ app to check for updates. Of course, if you are doing this,  don’t forget to backup data before upgrading.

On the other hand, if you’re using MIUI 8 China stable ROM or other older versions, you’ll need to flash your device before you can get this update. In case you don’t know which version you are using, if you got your Redmi Note 4X brand new and you’re in China, chances are that your device is running the MIUI China Stable ROM and you can only access this Android N based MIUI update if you flash your device to the developer ROM. Of course, you shouldn’t attempt flashing your phone if you don’t know how to because you could brick or boot loop the device.

The MIUI 8 version 7.4.27 Beta brings such features like weather, wind, air quality forecast for next 48 hours, location-based 2-hours minutely rain forecasts. It also brings support for daily data plans and fixes long time CPU occupation when not using weather app. You can learn more by visiting the source link below (MIUI Forum).

A new Xiaomi Redmi Note 4X version that looks like a higher version has appeared on China’s Telecom regulatory agency’s (TENAA) website after it was certified by the agency. This is coming barely two months after the device was quietly released by Xiaomi in China.

The new version of the Redmi Note 4X, which comes with the model number MBT6A5, is obviously a higher version of the smartphone considering it is listed as having 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage.  Another proof that it is a higher version is the deca-core 2.0GHz processor it is listed with. The earlier Redmi Note 4X model comes sporting an octa-core Snapdragon 625 chipset clocked at 2.0GHz.

Other specs listed with the new TENAA certified Redmi Note 4X include, a 5.5-inch TFT display with Full HD resolution, a large 4,000mAh battery, 13MP rear camera sensor and 5MP front camera. The device also comes with a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor.

As stated, the device is listed wit a deca-core chip and MedaiTek is the one known for using deca-core processors but there isn’t a MediaTek SoC clocked at 2.0GHz. The Helio X20 has a clock frequency of 2.1GHz so, it is likely there is an error or the chip is indeed an Helio X20 with a slightly reduced frequency.

Another striking thing of note on the specs list is the number of colour options the device will come in. A total of ten colour variants are listed and they include Gold, Gray, Silver, White, Black, Pink, Champagne Gold, Matte Black, Dark Gray, Cherry Blossom. Since the cost of using a MediaTek chip is lower than a Qualcomm variant, we really don’t expect a steep price increase on this version when it is launched.

Xiaomi’s Redmi Note lineup has been very popular both in China and internationally. The Redmi Note 4x is the upgrade to the Redmi Note 4 and it sports great specs, fantastic build quality and it costs less than $170. Learn more in the full Gizmochina’s review.

Thanks to Giztop for sending Xiaomi Redmi Note 4x for a review.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 4x Review: VIDEO

Xiaomi Redmi Note 4x Review: UNBOXING

Inside the box, you can find a charger, some paperwork, SIM ejector pin and USB cable.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Review: DESIGN and DISPLAY

The front of the phone looks just like previous Note-series devices. We have a sharp and bright 5.5” 1080p LCD display. In fact, it looks even better than a great display found on the Redmi Note 4.

We also have nicely backlit capacitive buttons and a highly customizable notification LED light.

The Note 4x is made of metal and it definitely feels premium but I was disappointed that the top and bottom parts of the backplate are made of plastic not like on the all-metal Note 4.

We have a 13MP shooter on the back, which is coupled with the dual-LED flash. Xiaomi phones are known for great fingerprint scanners and the Redmi Note 4x is no exception. You can unlock your phone very quickly straight from the standby mode.

The buttons feel nice and tactile, and we have some extra features like the IR blaster to control devices like TVs.

Xiaomi decided to stick with the micro USB port on this phone, which is not a deal-breaker but I would prefer the USB-C.

As for loudspeaker, I would say it is pretty good as on most of the Xiaomi phones. However, there is a little bit of distortion going on at the highest volume settings. The sound quality via the headset jack is pretty good too.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 4x Review: HARDWARE and PERFORMANCE

I have a standard edition of Xiaomi Redmi Note 4x that sports an octa-core Snapdragon 625 chip with the max. clock speeds of 2.0GHz, 3GB of RAM and 32GB of storage, which is also expandable via the microSD card slot. If you are willing to pay extra, you can get a 64GB model with 4GB of RAM.

The gaming performance is great and the Snapdragon 625 chip does not heat up so quickly. Games like Asphalt 8 run fine on the highest graphics with just a few skipped frames but that didn’t bother me at all.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 4x Review: BENCHMARKS

Xiaomi Redmi Note 4x Review: USER INTERFACE

When it comes to the user interface, the Redmi Note 4x ships with the MIUI 8, which uses Android 6.0 as a foundation. My review unit ships with the global ROM that has Google Play services pre-installed and Chinese bloatware removed.

I love how fast the phone is on the daily basis even after installing quite a few apps. So far, the phone has been working fine and I didn’t have any lag.

As usual, there are plenty of customization options Xiaomi phones have been famous for. Just to name a few, you can adjust display settings, choose from a variety of themes, customize the capacitive buttons or change the colors of the LED notification light. If you want to customize the phone even further, there are a lot more other features to play with.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 4x Review: CAMERA

We have a familiar camera app that allows you to take pictures very fast. You can also play with some basic shooting modes and settings. E.g. you can adjust some image properties using the manual mode.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 4x Review: IMAGE QUALITY

For a $170 phone, the pictures taken with the Redmi Note 4X look quite nice and there is a good amount of detail in most of the daylight shots. However, there were a few pictures with softer focus and inaccurate-looking colors.

When it comes to the low-light photography, the Redmi Note 4x is a pretty good performer. Sure, you can’t expect wonders from a $170 phone but the images are one of the best in class. In fact, I see the improvement over the Redmi Note 4, meaning that the Xiaomi finally improved its noise reduction algorithms.

The video quality is pretty good but it could definitely have more detail and look sharper.

As for selfie camera, a 5MP shooter can produce quite good selfies that will be more than enough for social media Unfortunately, the stock camera app allows you to shoot only in 720p with the front facing camera. On the other hand, the quality of the footage is pretty good and the sound recording quality is decent for a cheap phone.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 4x Review: CONNECTIVITY

The phone comes with a hybrid dual-SIM card tray, which can take either 2 SIMs or 1 SIM and the microSD card.

As for connectivity, everything has been working fine. I didn’t have any issues with Wifi that works fine on both 2.4 and 5GHz bands. Also, the GPS has been very accurate and finally, the call quality along with the signal reception have been great.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 4x Review: BATTERY LIFE

A huge 4100mAh battery has been phenomenal. I could use the phone for 2 days easily even with some heavy usage. That translates to over 7 hours of screen-on time. You can achieve even better results if you are going to use the phone just for the basic stuff.

Although the Snapdragon 625 supports Quick Charge 3.0 technology for fast charging, Xiaomi does not include the fast charger in the box and it takes about 2.5h to fully charge the phone.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 4x Review: CONCLUSIONS

Xiaomi Redmi Note 4x is yet another budget offering by the Chinese giant and I have to say that it is a great phone for the price of $170.

The device sports a very good built quality and it uses metal in the construction. Also, we have one of the best-in-class displays, feature-rich user interface and the phone can handle 3D games quite well. In addition, the battery life is fantastic. Finally, the camera can take some pretty good pictures.

A few minor shortcomings would be that the phone still uses the micro USB charging port, not the USB-C port. Also, the phone does not ship with the fast charger and finally, the top and bottom parts of the backplate are made of plastic, which is kind of a downgrade from the Redmi Note 4.

The question is: should you upgrade if you already have the Redmi Note 4. I would say no, since this phone is just an incremental upgrade. However, if you are in the market for a solid budget-friendly phone, the Xiaomi Redmi Note 4x should be definitely on your list as it is an easy buying recommendation for the price of under $170.

There is probably no argument about the fact that Xiaomi got it right once again with the sleek design it adopted on the Redmi Note 4X. How about the superfly Hatsune Miku edition of the Note 4X with its green paint job? It is just beyond stunning to say the least, more so, considering that the smartphone isn’t a flagship Mi series device but a Redmi smartphone that comes cheap.  We can’t seem to get enough of the images of the smartphone and here’s more hands-on/unboxing images fresh out of its box.

The Xiaomi Redmi Note 4X Hatsune Miku Edition brings out the sleek and premium design the smartphone features as a result of the attractive color it adorns. The customized Redmi Note 4X features a fused antenna band design with the antenna band coated in silver. The camera and fingerprint sensor also have silver-coated thin ring surrounding them.

As you would know by now, the Xiaomi Redmi Note 4X Hastune Miku Edition shares the same specs lineup with the regular Redmi Note 4X which includes a 5.5-inch 1080p display, Snapdragon 625 processor, 3GB of RAM, 32GB of internal storage, a 13MP rear camera, a 5MP front-facing camera as well as a large 4,100mAh battery. The Redmi Note 4X also come with dual SIM card / dual standby, and full Network support.

After quietly announcing the Redmi Note 4X, the device went on its first flash sale on February 14 and was an instant sell out. The next flash sale was slated for today and indeed, the device went up for sale today. A should be expected, all units of the Xiaomi Redmi Note 4X available for purchase were sold out in just seconds.

The matte black, champagne gold and gray color variants were up for grabs and were all listed as sold out just some seconds after the website opened for the flash sale. This isn’t coming as a bit of a surprise because of the spectacular design and decent specs lineup which the Redmi Note 4X came with. Moreover, the version up for grab carries a price tag of 999 Yuan which is relatively cheap.

The customized Hatsune Miku version is yet to go on it sale and when it does, a similar feat would most likely be achieved due to the positive reception the Hatsune version also received. The Redmi Note 4X Hatsune edition carries a price tag of 1299 Yuan and this not only gets you the smartphone, but also a customized protective case, mobile power bank and access to download customized theme later on.

The post Xiaomi Redmi Note 4X sold out within seconds yet again appeared first on Gizmochina.

Xiaomi recently released the Redmi Note 4X this month with the highly efficient Snapdragon 625 chipset, making the device a fan-favorite. Added to that, the device came in five cool colors including a Hatsune Miku special edition which came in green color. The Redmi Note 4X was only made available in 3GB of RAM and 32GB of expandable storage. Well, it seems that isn’t the only memory version the device will come in.

Xiaomi did include on its website, the existence of a 4GB + 64GB version which hasn’t been made available till date. However, the high-end version of the Redmi Note 4X has appeared on TENAA. The images accompanying the TENAA listing leaves no room for doubt as to whether this is indeed the Redmi Note 4X even though it was only identified by the model name MBE6A5.

According to the TENAA listing, the Redmi Note 4X (MBE6A5) sports the same 5.5-inch TFT display with a resolution of 1980 x 1080 pixels like the current versions on sale. The device is listed with 3GB of RAM and 64GB of storage and on the processor end, it packs a deca-core 2.0GHz processor. Now the memory and processor might be an error.  It could actually be an octa-core 2.0GHz SoC which points to a Snapdragon 653 processor. The RAM size should, in reality, be a 4GB RAM.

Other listed specs include a 4000mAh battery, a dimension of 151 x 76 x 8.35mm with a weight of 170g and a host of network bands which includes 4G LTE. If this turns out to indeed be a higher version of the Redmi Note 4x, then it would come with a higher price tag. Also, the wide range of network bands it comes with could indicate it would be sold outside China. We’ll be on the look out for more information on this.

Xiaomi has released a poster that teases a launch event which is scheduled to take place in Taiwan on February 21. This is perhaps a realization of the tech giant’s bid to take its products outside China in order to help rejig its finances and position in the market.

Xiaomi has been experiencing some decline in sales and revenue figures of late, losing out on the top three spots in smartphone shipments in the last few quarters. The company has indicated it would ship more units outside China and even open more physical stores, shifting from the usual online sales model.

Although the poster didn’t specify which smartphone(s) the company would unveil on that day, it is believed that Xiaomi will be bringing the international version of the Redmi Note 4X in Taiwan, as well as the Mi Note 2. Two marvelous smartphones which would no doubt be fast sell outs but we are not entirely sure about that. The Redmi Note 4X was unveiled in china a few days ago with a premium design and well-packed specs lineup for a budget smartphone. Hopefully, we’ll get to see the International version of this great smartphone on February 21 in Taiwan. Watch out!

Xiaomi announced the Redmi Note 4X Hatsune Miku Edition a couple of days back and since then the device has been hitting the airwaves in series of press renders. Until now, we were yet to see an hands-on image of the limited edition of the Redmi Note 4X  but that is now in the past. Real live/ hands-on images of the Xiaomi Redmi Note 4X Hatsune Miku Edition have come out, giving us a glimpse of the green beauty.

On first sight, the Hatsune Miku Limited edition might be confused with a flagship device but the Redmi series are known to have cheap mid-range price tags. That doesn’t take away the fact that the design is premium and sleek. The customized version comes in green paint job only and has a fused antenna band design that is coated in silver. The camera and fingerprint sensor has a silver coated thin ring surrounding them.

The sleek design alone doesn’t account for the 1,299 Yuan ($189) price tag the Redmi Note 4X Hatsune Miku edition has got. In addition to a great looking smartphone, buyers also get a limited edition mobile power bank, a customized casing for the phone as well as the opportunity to download Hatsune theme in the future.

The post Xiaomi Redmi Note 4X Pricing Officially Announced appeared first on Gizmochina.

Xiaomi yesterday teased a poster that projects the upcoming Redmi Note 4X as having the ability to churn out top notch performance. Part of that top performance is hinged on the large 4,100mAh battery the mid-ranger is said to pack. A video has now emerged which shows the Xiaomi Redmi Note 4X packs a long battery life which surpassed those of the iPhone 7 Plus having a 2,900mAh battery and the OPPO R9S with a 3,010mAh battery.

Talking about the iPhone 7 Plus, the Redmi Note 4X ordinarily shouldn’t lock horns with it because it packs a superior Apple A10 chip which should be able to keep the battery usage at the barest minimum. But then, the Xiaomi Redmi Note 4X equally packs the efficient, mid-range Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 chipset reputed to reduce battery usage.

The challenge involved using the Redmi Note 4X, OPPO R9S and iPhone 7 Plus to video simultaneous like a dashboard cam, a drive around town spanning several hours. The video shoot lasted for 14 hours 26 minutes, covering a distance of 902 km. The OPPO R9S was the first to run out of power and that was followed by the flagship iPhone 7 Plus. Surprisingly, the Redmi Note 4X made it through the entire journey and still had about 18% of power left for other uses. That is despite a powerful 13MP rear camera which was in use.

So we expect a very capable smartphone n the Redmi Note 4X which is also coming with a 5.5-inch Full HD display and three memory versions of 2GB + 32GB, 3GB + 32GB and 4GB + 64GB. The mid-range device is also expected with a budget friendly price tag of 999 yuan, 1099 Yuan and 1299 Yuan respectively. You can check out the video from down below.

Xiaomi‘s first new smartphone release in China this year would likely be the Redmi Note 4X. The device has already been tipped as coming this February 14, while sales may likely start on the 16th of February. Ahead of the official launch, the device had made appearances in several leaks, gifting us some of the specs as well as a few renders of the Redmi series smartphone.

Presently, the specifications of the Redmi Note 4X has again featured in a leak which also gifts us some live, official looking images of the smartphone in the hands of Xiaomi’s brand ambassadors. Among the specs listed is a 5.5-inch display, a large 4100mAh battery, 13MP rear camera, 5MP front sensor as well as a Snapdragon 625 chipset.

In the same vein, a screen shot of what is said to be the Xiaomi Redmi Note 4X AnTuTu benchmark score has leaked and it shows the Redmi Note 4X scored well over 90K points (90057 points) on benchmark. Now, that is way over the capabilities of the SD 625 chip it features. The SD 625 is only capable of a score in the region of 60K points and not over 90K. If it had been the Helio X20 chip onboard, then perhaps we would have believed because it reached over 80K on benchmark onboard the Redmi Note 4. So, it is possible this AnTuTu benchmark score is fake.

The Spring Festival holiday is over and Chinese smartphone giant Xiaomi is returning from the holidays with a bang.
