Chinese tech brand realme has confirmed to unveil realme UI 3.0 based on Android 12 on October 13. Ahead of that, the company has kicked off the ‘Android 12 Eary Access’ program for realme GT 5G in its home country
The realme GT 5G is the brand’s first and the only Snapdragon 888-powered smartphone released to date. Hence, it positions this device as its flagship phone. Hence, it is the first model to receive Android 12.
According to an official announcement post on realme Community China, only 700 users will be able to experience Android 12 on the realme GT 5G in China initially. The registrations for the initiative have been opened and they will be closed when the required number of users get selected.
The company says that user data will not be erased when upgrading from realme UI 2.0 to Android 12 Early Access. However, it still recommends users to back up the date and store it somewhere else to restore it if required.
The only requirement to join the program is that the phone should not be rooted. Whereas, the selection criteria will be based on a questionnaire.
Interestingly, realme does not call this software realme UI 3.0. But we believe it should be an early release of 3rd-gen realme UI with some missing features.
Having said that, we expect realme to shed more details on its latest software next week.
