Xiaomi, dubbed as the Apple of China, also makes mobile devices that have the same design philosophy as Apple's. The newest Xiaomi Mi4 has killer specs and already been released in select regions right now. With the next-gen Meizu flagship just around the corner, people are now asking which one could be better.

The latest Meizu handset could be officially announced earlier than previously thought. According to Meizu's Facebook page, Aug. 18 will be a splendid day because of what the company has to share. This announcement could be of the company's Android interpretation, Flyme OS 4.0 or it could be the MX4 or both.

China managed to leak the base model of MX4 from someone who supposedly got his hands on the device's leaflets. The device with 16 GB of internal storage is said to cost CNY 2,499 which is about US$406. This model is not the one that has a 5.4-inch QHD screen because the Pro variant will surely be more expensive than that.

However, According to Phone Arena, One of the variants will run on Meizu Flyme OS 4.0 based on the Android OS while the other will allegedly run on Ubantu Touch OS. Both models will be out in September and the Meizu MX4 starting price is at US$320.

Based on the images, the MX4 will come in white and black. The device will feature a 4G LTE connectivity likely for Chinese networks only, a powerful chipset from Qualcomm, Samsung or MediaTek and 3 GB of RAM. There could also be SoC differenced between MX4 variations.

The Xiaomi Mi4 costs US$320 with an impressive hardware, powerful processor and full HD 1080p 5-inch screen. Its rear shell is made of plastic but has polished aluminum edges.
