UMI X2: To carry 64GB ROM and 4GB RAM in next version?

This is getting tiresome now.... The marketing gimmicks of UMI has taken a new high (read low). Though 1st of April is long past yet UMI seems to have made up its mind to make a practical joke out of everything by promising people the moon and showing empty boxes when it comes to the delivery!

It all started today with GizChina being fooled by UMI which in one of its postings promised a 64GB ROM exclusive release of its UMI X2 in China. This was promptly taken up and reported by GizChina, which turned out to be false!!

The Indian Facebook site however was decent enough to confirm that only the 32GB ROM version of its model would release in India
UMI India Facebook site clarifying the claim.
This saving grace was spoiled by the same page only hours ago when it posted this

64GB ok but 4GB RAM?????
We were shocked to see that there would be 4GB of RAM in its next avatar!

Now this might be true with the MT6599 Octacore processor which is yet to be launched. However the current Chipset is simply struggling to accomodate the 2GB RAM and with current pricing situation and extreme dearth of supplies of the X2 when will UMI deliver its promise??

As if all this was not enough they released a set of pictures proudly titled X2 box pics (empty here too) and showed the box pictures of the UMI S1!!
Wrong picture at the wrong place??
Though the X2 box pictures were also posted all the chareacters were in Chinese, meaning these boxes are merely photo sets from some factory in the mainland.

We sincerely request UMI to hold its advertising horses and show some real movement  in supplying the sets the ones who pre-booked it. You already have a loyal fan following and the phone is set to sell millions.

But with current software issues, supply issues and tall claims you are losing out the momentum you have built. Leave your thoughts in the comments below.
