UPDATE: Realme CMO Xu Qi has also used the unreleased Realme X2Pro to add a new Weibo post. The post shown below reads that Realme’s first Snapdragon 855+ powered smartphone is coming and it is codenamed as ‘Super Warrior.’
Original story follows…
When Snapdragon 855+ mobile platform was introduced in June, Realme was one of the first company to tease that it may launch a SD855+ powered smartphone. During the weekend, Realme China’s Product Director Wang Wei Derek was recently spotted using a mysterious phone called Realme X2Pro for posting on Weibo. Hence, it is being speculated that the Realme X2Pro could be the Snapdragon 855 powered flagship phone from Realme.
The above shown post that revealed the Realme X2Pro name has been deleted. The deleted Weibo post also revealed that the handset is codenamed as Super Warrior. Interestingly, through another Weibo post, Derek has asked users to guess on the price of Snapdragon 855 Plus powered 4G flagship phone. In comments on the same post, he has hinted that the phone may cost 4,000 Yuan (~$561).
The Weibo posts from Derek indicates that the company could be gearing to launch a Snapdragon 855 Plus powered flagship phone. A reliable tipster from China has claimed that the Realme X2Pro will break cover in mid-October.
Last week, an unannounced Realme phone with model number RMX1931 was spotted at the database of Bluetooth SIG. The listing suggested that the smartphone is fueled by 2.84GHz Qualcomm octa-core processor which suggested that it could be featuring the Snapdragon 855 SoC that was announced in December last year. Hence, it remains to be seen whether the Realme X2Pro really exists or not and if it exists, whether it will be equipped with Snapdragon 855 or 855+.
The Bluetooth SIG listing had further stated that the Realme RMX1931 is fitted with a 6.55-inch full HD display and carries support for Bluetooth 5.0 and dual-band Wi-Fi connectivity. It is speculated that it could be backed by a 1,950mAh battery. The handset will be running on ColorOS 6.0. The smartphone is also expected to release in India since it had recently received approval from the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS). The Realme X2Pro seems to be a worthy rival for the Xiaomi Redmi K20 Pro.
In related news, Realme has recently launched the Snapdragon 730G SoC powered Realme X2 phone. It has a 6.4-inch full HD+ display with waterdrop notch with in-screen fingerprint reader. It has 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage. The Samsung GW1 64-megapixel + 8-megapixel + 2-megapixel + 2-megapixel quad cameras and 32-megapixel front camera are available on the device for photography. The VOOC 3.0 equipped 4,000mAh battery fuels the smartphone. The same phone is heading to India as Realme XT 730G in December.
