Realme X50 Pro 5G smartphone has been confirmed to get launched in the Indian market on 24th February, making it the first 5G smartphone in the market. Ahead of the official launch of the device, Realme has shared a few teaser posters revealing its features and key specifications.
Now, a new report suggests the pricing of this upcoming smartphone for the Indian market. A report from PTI quotes the company’s executive suggesting that the Realme X50 Pro 5G will be priced around ₹50,000 (~$696) in India.
The pricing seems quite on the upper side, especially considering the price conscious Indian smartphone market. The pricing also seems a bit higher given that Realme is positioned as a budget brand in India, rivaling Xiaomi’s Redmi brand.
If this pricing turns out to be true, then Realme could face trouble selling the device in the Indian market given that iQOO is all set to launch its next-generation iQOO 3 5G flagship smartphone the very next day in India.
As per the reports, the 4G variant of iQOO 3 will cost around ₹35,000 while the 5G model will be priced around ₹45,000, lower than the suggested pricing of Realme’s upcoming phone. It’s noteworthy that India doesn’t have 5G infrastructure in the country yet.
Realme recently confirmed that the phone will come with a 64MP primary sensor in the quad-camera setup. It has also been revealed that the camera will come with features like 20X hybrid zoom support, Realme’s SAT smooth zoom technology, seamless switching between photo and video mode, among others.

The company has also confirmed that the Realme X50 Pro 5G will come with a Super AMOLED screen from Samsung with a refresh rate of 90Hz and E3 light-emitting material. As per the earlier reports, the phone will feature a Full HD+ display with a screen resolution of 2400 x 1080 pixels and 20:9 aspect ratio.
Under the hood, the device will be powered by the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 SoC along with Snapdragon X55 5G modem that enables dual-mode 5G. It is also said to pack up to 12GB of LPDDR5 RAM and 256GB of internal storage.
Coming to the battery department, Realme has confirmed that the X50 Pro 5G will come with a 65W SuperDart fast charging technology. The technology is most likely based on the SuperVOOC 2.0 charging tech used by OPPO in its last year’s Reno Ace model.
