Highlighting Specification of UMI X1:
Good and Bad with Market Competition:
It will a good competition to watch between this chinese company challenging the Indian market. The Micromax Bolt A35 and Huawei Ascend Y210D will get a good competition with the launch of UMI X1. Also the latest launch of Hauwai: the Huawai Ascend G600 could have a threat from UMI launch. The phone is now available in Black and white color with the price tag of Rs.9,999. UMI X1 comes with the best display in its category but we don’t see the phone offer anything extra on what is already available. With not much awareness about brand and low battery power the phone could find difficult to survive in the Indian market.
