The wait is over! After several months running on the Open Beta programme announced back in February this year, Realme has finally announced on its community forum that the brand has finally officially rolled out the stable Realme UI 3.0 OS update based on Android 12, to its Realme 8 Pro, Realme 7 Pro, and Realme C25s users!
The Realme UI 3.0 stable update rollout will be released to users in batches, and to be eligible for the update, users will have to make sure that they are on the latest firmware version of Realme UI 2.0. For Realme 8 Pro users, that will be RMX3081_11.A.47 / RMX3081_11.A.48 ; for Realme 7 Pro users, that will be RMX2170_11.C.30 / RMX2170_11.C.32 ; and for Realme C25s users, that will be RMX3197_11.A.19 / RMX3197_11.A.20.
As for what new features the update brings, Realme says that Realme UI 3.0 is now revamped with a new design, which aims to deliver a more comfortable, natural and simpler user experience. The Realme UI 3.0 update changelog for the Realme 8 Pro, Realme 7 Pro and Realme C25s are identical, and if you want to read further through all the new features and highlights, you can do so with the changelog we have attached below.
If you do decide to upgrade to Android 12, Realme notes several common issues it received from users after the Android 12 upgrade:
- It may take a longer time to boot for the first time, especially if there are many third-party applications on your phone.
- In order to improve the system operation efficiency and eliminate potential safety risks, the system will perform a series of actions such as application adaptation, background optimization and security scanning which may cause slight hanging and faster power consumption.
However, these software issues will normally go away once a week has passed and your phone has adapted to the new system.
The Realme 7 Pro is the oldest device here among the three with it launching back on September 14, 2020, almost 2 years ago. It launched with Realme UI 1.0 based on Android 10 out of the box. And the Android 12 update is expected to be the last major Android OS upgrade for the smartphone, as it had received 2 Android OS upgrades in its life cycle. The phone came with the first AMOLED display on a Realme number series device, a mid-range Snapdragon 720G processor, as well as support for 65W SuperDart fast wired charging to boot, making it a very competitive mid-range device in the market at that time.
Meanwhile, both the Realme 8 Pro and Realme C25s were launched in 2021 with Realme UI 2.0 based on Android 11. The Realme 8 Pro came with a Snapdragon 720G chipset, 108MP main camera, and 50W fast wired charging whilst the Realme C25s launched with an Helio G85 SoC and 6000mAh battery.
