After launching the budget phablet Vibe K4 Note, Chinese PC maker Lenovo is gearing up to launch a mid-range model Vibe X3 in India later this week.

The company took to Facebook to announce that the Vibe X3 will be launched on Wednesday. "A camera so perfect that everyone is ready to pose for you. Get your Lenovo Vibe X3 with an amazing 21mp Rear Camera and a 8mp Front Camera. Coming soon on 27th Jan," reads Lenovo Mobile India Facebook wall.

However, there is no word on when Lenovo will release Youth variant of the device, which is currently sold in China.

For the uninitiated, Lenovo unveiled Vibe X3 series in November in China. Original Vibe X3 comes with full HD display, Snapdragon Hexa-core processor, 3GB RAM, 32GB/64GB inbuilt memory, 3600 mAh battery, 21MP camera on the rear-side and 8MP snapper on the front.

On the other hand, Lenovo Vibe X3 Youth edition is a watered down version of the former model. It features 2GB RAM, MediaTek's Octa-core processor, 13MP camera, 5MP front-camera and 3400 mAh battery.
