One of China’s biggest online stores, Jingdong a.k.a JD.com, has confirmed the official names of Realme’s upcoming phones as well as their release date. Realme will be making its entry into the Chinese phone market this month and it will be doing so in grand style by launching a flagship phone called the Realme X.
The brand which celebrated its 1st year anniversary a few days ago was originally exclusive to India. It has launched seven phones already which all belong to the mid-range category. However, for its first launch in China, Realme will be announcing the Realme X which will be powered by the flagship chipset, the Snapdragon 855. Jingdong has also revealed that it will bring along a sibling called the Realme X Youth Edition.
Jingdong not only has a page set up for the two phones already but the listing also reveals the phones will be officially unveiled on May 15, an info yet to be released by the manufacturer.
Actually, Realme plans to make an important announcement about the Realme X tomorrow at 10 AM (China time) and we definitely think it is about the launch date. However, JD.com has let the cat out of the bag early.
The online store will also run a competition that begins today and ends on May 14. Winners stand the chance of winning a phone, a backpack, or a branded T-shirt.

The Realme X will have a full-screen design with no notch and only a bezel at the bottom of the screen. It will also have a pop-up selfie camera, dual rear cameras, and an in-display fingerprint scanner. The Realme X Youth Edition is expected to have the same design but a less-powerful processor.
