After series of delays UMI has finally received the UMI XII – first lot and will soon start the shipping process from tomorrow or day after. They have already notified the customers.
UMI Spokesperson mentioned that they have received the first lot and will start shipping it to the customers after quality checks. The second lot is already undergoing custom clearance and the 3^rd lot will be dispatched from China, today.
UMI has send me some images that also includes the UMI XII handset rear view and front view – Note that the borders are missing (the UMI XII prototype model had the borders). The X2 handset is with 2GB RAM and 32GB internal storage.
The chipset is MediaTek MT6589 and not MediaTek MT6589T, UMI has mentioned this on their Facebook page.  There are over 9000 customers (made full payments), awaiting delivery. I guess by next week we will start getting user inputs / reviews.
