Realme today hosted a launch event in China where the company unveiled the all-new Realme X smartphone series. This is the first time a Realme smartphone has not made its debut in the Indian market.
The Realme X, as revealed through several leaks, comes with a pop-up front-facing camera module. This is the first such design from Realme, a brand backed by Oppo. The Realme X comes with a spring-loaded pop-up camera which opens in just 0.72 seconds.
The smartphone flaunts a 6.53-inch Full HD+ AMOLED display with 2340 × 1080 pixels screen resolution and Corning Gorilla Glass 5 protection. The phone’s display offers a 91.2 percent screen-to-body ratio, thanks to the pop-up selfie camera design.
Under the hood, Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 710 octa-core processor is powering the device, just like the Realme 3 Pro. It is coupled with Adreno 616 GPU and packs up to 8GB of RAM and up to 128GB of internal storage.
Taking care of the photography needs is a dual camera setup on the back panel that comes with a 48-megapixel primary camera with 1/2.0″ Sony IMX586 sensor, f/1.7 aperture, 6P lens, coupled with a 5-megapixel secondary camera sensor.
On the front side, the device features a 16-megapixel camera with a Sony IMX471 sensor and f/2.0 aperture. For security, the device comes with an in-display fingerprint sensor, a feature that Realme is introducing for the first time on its smartphones.
Connectivity options on the device include Dual 4G VoLTE, WiFi 802.11 ac (2.4GHz + 5GHz), Bluetooth 5, and GPS + GLONASS. The smartphone runs on Android 9 Pie operating system with ColorOS 6 custom interface on top.
The device drives power from a 3,765mAh battery which also comes with support for VOOC 3.0 fast charging support that was first introduced with the Realme 3 Pro. The phone measures 161.2×76×9.4mm and weigh 191 grams.
