Yesterday, at the realme GT Neo2 global launch event, the brand also unveiled realme UI 3.0. The latest version of the company’s mobile operating system is based on Android 12 and it succeeds the Android 11-based realme UI 2.0 from last year. Apart from revealing features, the firm also confirmed the list of eligible devices and when they will receive the update.
Just like the previous two iterations of realme UI, the latest realme UI 3.0 is also based on ColorOS. To be precise, the new version of realme’s mobile software is a clone of recently released ColorOS based on Android 12.
However, as usual, neither realme nor OPPO accepts the fact publicly. But from the features announced by realme, it is evident that realme UI 3.0 is nothing but ColorOS 12 in disguise.
Having said that, below-listed are the realme smartphones that will be updated to Android 12 in the coming weeks.

As you can see from the heading, the above-mentioned schedule is only meant for ‘Early Access’, which is a fancy name used by realme for beta program. In other words, regular users will be getting the update later than the roadmap above.
Most importantly, unlike OPPO and OnePlus, realme is not providing three Android updates for its premium devices. Hence, the brand’s first flagship smartphone (realme X2 Pro) is missing from the list.
Additionally, multiple other budget models are also not listed. We are not sure if these inexpensive handsets will be treated with realme UI 3.0.
