Form Factor: OnePlus X has Gorilla Glass Protection, missing in Xiaomi Mi 4
Coming to the design language, the OnePlus X comes with glassy surface on both front and back along with the metal rim runs around the entire phone. Anyhow, the looks are somewhat similar to the Sony's traditional 'Omni-balance design'.
On the other hand, Xiaomi Mi 4 comes with shiny plastic body along with stainless steel rim on the sides giving it solid build quality. In terms of display, the OnePlus X hold the edge over Mi 4 due to the lack of Corning Gorilla Glass 3 protection.
The Mi 4 sports a 5-inch Full HD display with a resolution of 1080 x 1920 pixels which translates to 441ppi. Meanwhile, OnePlus 2's little brother flaunts a 5-inch full HD AMOLED display with 1920×1080 pixels, which translates to 441ppi too.
Processor Power and Camera Optics are similar!
On the hardware front, both OnePlus X and Mi 4 is packed with the famous Snapdragon 801 processor, Adreno 330 GPU and 3GB RAM inside.
When it comes to taking photography, the two smartphones again shares the same specifications with 13MP rear camera, 8MP front snapper.
Storage: Xiaomi Mi 4 comes in two variants!
The OnePlus X comes with an inbuilt memory of 16GB along with expandable memory up to 128GB via microSD card. On the flipside, the Xiaomi Mi 4 comes in two variants which is 16GB/64GB, leaving no slot for expansion.
Connectivity: Oneplus X touts 4G connectivity!
Both the OnePlus X and Xiaomi Mi 4 comes with the regular set of options including WiFi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0, GPS, FM Radio 3.5mm audio jack. But the 4G LTE option from OnePlus X sets it apart from the Mi 4.
Operating System: Oneplus X has Lollipop!
Coming to the software front, the Mi 4 comes shipped with Android KitKat (upgradable to Lollipop OS) on top of MIUI 5, while the OnePlus X runs on the latest Android 5.1.1 Lollipop on top of Oxygen.
(Note: Xiaomi has rolled out its latest MIUI 7 update)

Price: Big Fight!
As mentioned above, the OnePlus X carries a price tag of Rs. 16,999 for the Onyx variant and Rs. 22,999 for the Ceramic variant. The Xiaomi Mi 4 16GB is priced at Rs. 14,999, while the 64GB comes at Rs. 17,999.
