realme India support team has already confirmed that the company will launch realme 8 5G and realme 8 Pro 5G in India very soon. Now, we have got some information on their launch date.

realme Central, citing their source, reports that the realme 8, 8 Pro 5G devices will debut in India on April 22. Back at the realme 8 4G series launch, Madhav Sheth did confirm that the company is bringing the realme 8 5G version soon.

Later, as mentioned above, the support team, while replying to a user’s query, confirmed that there’s also a ‘Pro’ variant coming with the 5G support. However, we don’t have enough information on the realme 8 Pro 5G just yet.

That said, the vanilla version has popped up on certification sites like BIS, NBTC, Peruvian MTC, and FCC. While the BIS and NBTC listings suggested their arrival to India and Thailand respectively, the FCC had revealed few specs.

As per the FCC listing, the realme 8 5G measures 162.5 x 74.8 x 8.5mm and weighs 185 grams. The phone runs on Realme UI 2.0 based Android 11 OS and has a 5,000mAh battery underneath. Apart from the obvious 5G connectivity, other possible specs include Wi-fi 802.11ac, GPS, GLONASS, BDS, NFC.

realme brought the Narzo 30 Pro 5G with LCD display and a Dimensity 800U 5G chipset. Considering the 4G versions of the realme 8 series have AMOLED, the 5G devices should also have it.

However, there are chances that realme might opt for an LCD display to keep the costs optimal. Additionally, just like the realme Narzo 30 Pro, the realme 8 Pro 5G might launch with a Dimensity 800U chipset while the vanilla realme 8 5G may come with Dimensity 700.

Either way, let’s wait for official info which could be coming out very soon.
