Xiaomi is two days away from officially unveiling the Mi 4c but leaks continue to trickle in. A new one claims that the device will come with a USB Type-C port, which is partly right. Xiaomi co-founder and president Lin Bin clarified via Weibo that the device packs a micro-USB connector as well.
The Chinese company makes this happen by slotting in a micro-USB adapter as well as a USB Type-C adapter in the handset's package. Users can then fasten those two together. The inclusion of both connectors is apparently the company's way to cater to users who like to use the older version of the connectors.
Meanwhile, a detail on pricing came just in time for consumers to prepare for the moment the Xiaomi Mi 4c hits the market on Oct. 3 with a limited 100,000 units, as per Phone Arena. It helps to know that a version of the smartphone that offers a 32 GB ROM/ 3 GB RAM combo could cost around $235.
Interestingly, NDTV claims that the model with only 2 GB RAM and 16 GB storage space, which serves as the standard version of the handset, will be the one that will have the aforementioned price tag. All the same, the value of the upcoming Xiaomi Mi 4c should be hovering on that amount.
Meanwhile, a model with 64 GB of storage space is reportedly going to be available, too. There's no mention of the pricing on this one, though, or if it will get a 4 GB RAM. Nevertheless, any of these versions will be powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 808 processor.
Bin also said, as per NDTV, that the Xiaomi Mi 4c will feature 4G LTE connectivity. The device will reportedly sport a 5-inch screen with a 1080p resolution and a 3120 mAh battery. The 13-megapixel rear-facing camera has a dual-LED flash while the snapper on the front is set at 5 megapixels.
The Xiaomi Mi 4c will be unveiled on Sept. 22.
