Realme has already confirmed that the Realme X2 smartphone will be launched in China at a special launch event on 24th September. Hours after the announcement, Francis Wang, Chief Marketing Officer of Realme confirmed that the X2 is the re-branded version of the XT for Chinese market.
While the Realme X2’s design is similar to the XT recently launched in India, the smartphone will come with some major upgrades in terms of specifications. The company has today confirmed that the phone will be powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 730G SoC.
For the uninitiated, the Realme XT comes powered by the Snapdragon 712 AIE processor. It seems that the variant launching in China is the Realme XT 730G which Realme India CEO Madhav Sheth revealed will launch in India in December this year.
Earlier, the company had also confirmed that the Realme X2 will be featuring a 32-megapixel camera sensor on the front side, an upgrade over the 16-megapixel snapper present in the Realme XT. It remains to be seen if the company uses the same waterdrop notch to house the camera sensor or adopts pop-up mechanism.

Apart from these changes, we expect that most of the specifications on the Realme X2 will remain the same as Realme XT. It will feature 6.4-inch S-AMOLED Full HD+ display with 2340 x 1080 pixels screen resolution, and 19.5:9 aspect ratio. It will come with up to 8GB RAM and 128GB internal storage.
The quad camera system on the phone comes with 64-megapixel Samsung GW1 primary camera sensor, an 8-megapixel ultrawide lens, a 2-megapixel dedicated macro camera and a 2-megapixel depth sensor. The smartphone will be running Android 9 Pie-based ColorOS 6.0.1 out-of-the-box and will be powered by a 4,000mAh battery along with 30W VOOC 3.0 fast charging support.
