Xiaomi is set to officially launch the Xiaomi Redmi Note 4X on Wednesday, February 8 in China according to the tech manufacturer's Weibo post.

In its report GSMArena posted the translation of the said post from China's social media network.

The rough translation goes as, "Not Wu Xiubo, not Liu Shi, not Liu Haoran, (but) a(n) absolutely unexpected idol will be (here on) February 14 to bring a special Valentine's Day gift: (the) Red Note4X! (Can you guess who it is?)"

GSMArena reported also that the Redmi Note 4X is powered by either a Mediatek Helio X20 chipset or a Snapdragon 653 processor. RAM variants include 2GB, 3GB, and 4GB. Storage options are 32GB and 64GB, which is expandable via microSD up to 128GB. The device will feature a 13MP main camera and a 5MP secondary or front camera. It has a 5.5-inch full HD LCD, a 4100MAH battery and a fingerprint sensor. It is also expected to support dual-SIM.

Gadgets360 provided additional information on the unit's exact specifications. Physical dimensions are listed at 151x76.3x8.54mm, "making it slightly wider and thicker than the Redmi Note 4," it noted. It weighs 176.54 grams, which also makes it lighter than its previous iteration.

The Xiaomi Redmi Note 4X runs on Android 6.0 Marshmallow, it added.

The Chinese phone company is set to officially provide other details such as exact pricing and product availability on Wednesday. The Xiaomi Red Note 4X will then hit the stores on February 14 - Valentine's Day.

Information about this latest phone model from Xiaomi came out after the Redmi Note 4X received the Chinese certification website TENAA's nod recently.

There is no available information as to when the Xiaomi Redmi Note 4X will hit the stores in territories outside China, but it's reasonable to expect it between the end of February and March.
