The phone is ungraded CPU version of Redmi 4, which have well known Snapdragon 430.
Now Redmi 4X sports Snapdragon 435.
So what is the differents?
Well the new CPU supports double network speed (WiFi and mobile) compared to Snapdragon 430.
Also in theory it should spare the battery life.

But lets check the new design closer.
The Redmi 4X is present in Cherry Pink, Champagne Gold, and Matte Black colours.
The display is 2.5D curved and looks very fashion and modern.

The back is metal and this phone is in very nice champagne color.
On it is located the fingerprint sensor and and 13-megapixel rear camera (Samsung) with f/2.0 aperture, PDAF, and monochrome LED flash.

The bottom and top part are plastic but they are the same color and in my opinion it is better for signal reception.
On the bottom the located micro USB port and microphone and speaker.

Redmi 4X measures 139.2×69.6.x8.6mm, and weighs 150 grams.
In hand it I can feel it really nice like premium phone, maybe because of the new design with rounded edges.

Redmi 4X comes with 5V/2A charger and charging the phone takes 10 minutes to charge 8% power, in 30 minutes, charge 20%, in one hour, charge 41%, and in 170 minutes, it can be charged full.

The phone runs MIUI 8.2 stable Android 6 multi-language . Italian language of course exist.

But let see the test results:

If you want better better check Redmi 4 Pro/Prime

Playing full HD videos and movies is not problem.

The audio is good via headphones or from the speaker.

In concluding I can say this is really nice EUR 100 smartphone.
Only one thing I miss – double tap to weak screen.

Anyway it’s a good phone and I recommend it.
