The post realme 8 and realme 8 Pro launched: Specs, Features, and Price appeared first on Gizmochina.

realme recently confirmed that it would use Samsung’s 108MP HM2 camera sensor on the upcoming realme 8 Pro. While the company is yet to reveal a launch date for the realme 8 series, it has gone forward to reveal the entire specs of the non-Pro realme 8.

As you can see in the image below, the CEO of realme India & Europe, Madhav Sheth has shared an image on Twitter. In that, we can see the rear design of the realme 8 Pro once again. However, at the back of this are two boxes that should be the final retail packaging of the realme 8.

Anyway, the box reveals that the realme 8 will feature a 6.4-inch Super AMOLED FullScreen display. This is a clear jump from the predecessor, realme 7’s had a 90Hz IPS LCD panel. Also, there is a possibility that the company might limit the refresh rate to 60Hz on the realme 8.

The company’s box packaging also talks about the device being super slim & light but we will have to wait and see if the thickness is less than realme 7’s 9.4mm. Moving on, the box reveals that realme 8 will have the same MediaTek Helio G95 chipset as its predecessor.

That said, the realme 8 will feature an AI quad-camera with 64MP as the main lens. We are yet to know the auxiliary camera sensors but they could be the same as the predecessor. Other specs include a 5,000mAh battery with 30W Dart Charging.

We can also spot the Android logo beneath the box packaging however, we aren’t sure of the OS version yet. Let’s just hope that the realme 8 series finally debuts with Android 11 out of the box.

The post realme 8 Specs revealed by India & Europe CEO Madhav Sheth appeared first on Gizmochina.

realme is back in the groove of launching smartphones frequently. The company is teasing realme GT in China while it has already launched budget devices like Narzo 30 Pro 5G in India. Yesterday, at the lndia launch, the company had hinted something with Infinity symbol on a poster. Today, Madhav Sheth has teased it further and it could be the realme 8 series with a 108MP camera.

VP, realme, and CEO of realme India & Europe, Madhav Sheth, in a Tweet has revealed the Quad-Camera setup of an upcoming realme smartphone. While he hasn’t explicitly mentioned it as a smartphone, the ‘#InfiniteLeapWith8’ and ‘108’ certainly suggest that realme 8 could be coming soon.

This is probably to take on the Chinese Giant Redmi that is already building up the hype for the Redmi Note 10 series. He says that he will reveal the breakthrough tomorrow i.e, February 26. Now, if it’s indeed the realme 8, it will be interesting to see how the company will bid it against the likes of rivals like Redmi Note 10.

Recently, a realme device with model number RMX3161 appeared on TENAA. It was thought to be the Narzo 30 Pro 5G but the latter turned out as a rebadged realme Q2. That said, the RMX3161 has a camera layout similar to the one teased by Madhav and could be the realme 8.

Do note that this is just our guess and let’s wait for the official reveal tomorrow. Anyway, you can compare the images below.

At this point in time, the information regarding the realme 8 is very bleak, to say the least. However, vague benchmarks rooting back to November showed info like Dimensity 720 chipset, 8GB RAM, Android 10, and more. However, we wouldn’t put too much emphasis on this for now.
