Smartphone brand realme has started rolling out realme UI 2.0 stable update based on Android 11 for realme narzo 30A. The stable update of the company’s 2020 mobile software for the said handset arrives almost two months after the release of the first beta build.

In June, realme started recruiting beta testers for the realme narzo 30A realme UI 2.0 update. A couple of months later, the phone has now begun to receive the stable update.

According to the official announcement post on realme Community, the Android 11 stable update for the realme narzo 30A comes with firmware version RMX3171_11.C.03. The latest system update for the smartphone is being rolled out to users who are on firmware version RMX3171_11.A.19 or RMX3171_A.17.

Like any other OTA software update, this one is also being rolled out in batches. This means some users may get it earlier than others, while others will have to wait a bit longer. At the end of the day, every user should get the new update.

Having said that, if a user is not satisfied with the software experience, they can roll back to the previous version of realme UI based on Android 10 by manually installing the rollback package. However, it is worth noting that this process will wipe the device’s internal storage.

The post realme narzo 30A starts receiving Android 11 (realme UI 2.0) stable update appeared first on Gizmochina.

Just a couple of years back, realme smartphones used to run ColorOS. After becoming an independent brand, the company started using realme UI, which is nothing but a fork of ColorOS. The second iteration of this mobile software called realme UI 2.0 based on Android 11 was announced in September 2020. Since then, the firm has been rolling out beta as well as stable builds to eligible devices. The latest handsets to get beta builds are realme 5 Pro, realme narzo 30 Pro 5G, and realme 30A.

At the end of March, realme shared an updated realme UI 2.0 update rollout plan. According to it, the realme narzo 30 Pro 5G and the realme 30A are scheduled to receive beta builds in Q3. However, the brand has started recruiting beta testers beforehand. Whereas, the beta registrations for the realme 5 Pro goes live on time.

In order to enroll in the realme UI 2.0 Early Access program, users should be on the following firmware versions.

• realme 5 Pro – RMX1971EX_11_C.14
• realme narzo 30 Pro 5G – RMX2111PU_11.A.35 / RMX2111PU_11.A.37
• realme narzo 30A – RMX3171_11.A.17

To register, users will have to navigate to Settings > Software Update > Gear Icon > Trial Version > Apply Now and follow on-screen instructions. Applicants who get selected will get The Android 11 (realme UI 2.0) beta build via OTA.

The stable update should arrive in the future. But we can’t tell how soon. Because realme has managed to deliver stable builds only for a few devices.

The post realme 5 Pro, narzo 30 Pro 5G, narzo 30A Android 11 beta registrations go live appeared first on Gizmochina.

In late February, realme launched the realme narzo 30 Pro in India as the cheapest 5G smartphone in the country. This handset was accompanied by another device called realme narzo 30A. Despite being newer phones, the duo debuted with Android 10 (realme UI). A few weeks after their announcement, the brand has now revealed when these products will be updated to Android 11 beta (realme UI 2.0).

Chinese smartphone maker realme has been running the Android 11 (realme UI 2.0) beta program for the eligible devices since September 2020. However, only two phones, namely realme X50 Pro and realme narzo 20 have received the Android 11 stable update in India.

What’s worse is that the company has released its newer mid-range 5G smartphones with outdated realme UI (Android 10) out of the box in India. Last week, the brand revealed that the realme X7 and realme X7 Pro will be getting the Android 11 beta update in Q2 2021.

Now, this week, the company confirms that India’s most-affordable 5G smartphone (realme narzo 30 Pro) will be receiving the Android 11 beta update only in Q3 2021. The even cheaper 4G-only realme narzo 30A will be also getting this update at the same time.

Since this schedule is only meant for the beta, which realme calls ‘Early Access’, the open (public) beta release and final stable release may take even more time. In other words, the new narzo handsets will be probably getting Android 11 stable when Google would have already released Android 12.

The brand quietly updated its ‘realme UI 2.0 based on Android 11 Schedule’ post on realme Community to include these two devices. The changes were first spotted by PiunikaWeb.

Interestingly, the brand has removed realme 7i from the timeline. For those unaware, this handset had already started receiving beta builds. Perhaps, it was a mistake, and therefore, the phone may get listed again.

That said, what are your thoughts on realme’s software support? Do let us know in the comment section below.

realme is all set to bring an affordable 5G smartphone to India with the Narzo 30 series. The devices will debut in the country on February 24. Ahead of the launch next week, the Narzo 30A has appeared on Geekbench with MediaTek Helio G85 chipset.

A realme device with model number RMX3171 appears on Geekbench as reported by Nashville Chatter Class. The chipset running the show belongs to MediaTek MT6769V/CZ. This corresponds to the MediaTek Helio G85 chipset that was present on the Narzo 20 back then.

Also, the RMX3171 has already been spotted on NBC certification and it gives away the Narzo 30A moniker. Anyway, the Geekbench listing also shows that the device runs Android 10 which, although is a bit old, is ok considering the new realme X7 flagship devices also run the same OS.

Moving on, the device in testing seems to run on 4GB RAM, and if it becomes the base model, should be a relief for the users. The Narzo 20A launched in 2020 began with 3GB RAM and an upgrade is always welcome nonetheless.

We aren’t sure if realme would debut a Narzo 30 standard variant in the future but for next week, it has lined up the Narzo 30 Pro 5G and Narzo 30A. The specs of both the devices have already been leaked in their entirety.

Accordingly, the Narzo 30A will feature a Two-tone design in Black and Light Blue colors, a 6.5-inch display with a waterdrop notch(likely LCD). Other specs include a 13MP dual rear camera, 8MP front camera, 6,000mAh battery with 18W charging, fingerprint sensor on the back.

realme has finally revealed the India launch date of Narzo 30A, Narzo 30 Pro 5G, and realme Buds Air 2. The company will announce the new products in the country on February 24, i.e., next Wednesday.

In a Tweet, the company officially announced that the launch event will happen at 12 PM IST(UTC+ 05:30). You can watch the event live on its official Social Media channels like YouTube. Alongside the Smartphones, realme has also confirmed via an Invite(courtesy: Gadgets360) realme Buds Air 2 will launch on same day.

This realme Buds Air 2 will mostly succeed the original realme Buds Air from December 2019. Although realme hasn’t revealed the design officially yet Madhav had teased it a few days ago. These Wireless Earbuds are said to have upgraded features like Active Noise Cancellation(ANC) and Transparency (Ambient Noise)Mode as well.

Narzo 30 Pro 5G, Narzo 30A: What to Expect?

Yesterday, Madhav had confirmed to XDA that one of the devices will feature MediaTek’s Dimensity 800U 5G chipset which is the Narzo 30 Pro 5G. A teaser page on the realme website gives away the design of Narzo 30A and the Pro devices.

As said multiple times, the Narzo 30 Pro 5G looks like it’s a rebadged version of the realme Q2 from China. Accordingly, the device with a similar design and Silver color appears on the page. The Narzo 30A, on the other hand, has a square-shaped camera layout and a Two-tone Textured rear design.

The Narzo 30 Pro 5G is likely to feature 6.5-inch IPS LCD top-left punch-hole FHD+ display, 4/6GB RAM, 64/128GB storage, Triple rear cameras with a 48MP+8MP+2MP setup,  4,880mAh battery with 65W Charging, side-mounted fingerprint sensor.

Specs regarding the Narzo 30A are still under wraps but the teaser shows that it will have a Triple-camera setup, rear fingerprint sensor. Rumors have it that it could sport a MediaTek Helio G85 chipset inside but let’s wait for confirmation.

The post Official: realme Narzo 30A, 30 Pro 5G, Buds Air 2 TWS India Launch date is February 24 appeared first on Gizmochina.

realme is gearing up to launch the Narzo 30 series in India. The company has already confirmed its availability on Flipkart. Now, in an Interview with XDADevelopers, Madhav Sheth confirms the specs of one of the devices. And it could be the Narzo 30 Pro 5G.

Madhav Sheth, VP, Realme, and CEO, Realme India and Europe, has confirmed that one of the Narzo 30 series devices will feature MediaTek Dimensity 800U 5G chipset(mostly Narzo 30 Pro 5G). If you recall, Madhav Sheth had already teased about launching a cheaper 5G device a while ago. Ascertaining that, he says that the company aims to democratize 5G even more in India.

Last month, realme brought the realme X7 series, and with it came the Dimensity series of chipsets. Following this, the company had said that half of the devices launching in India this year would have 5G support. If we connect the dots, the “Never-before-Seen price” works out well.

Speaking of which, Madhav hasn’t explicitly revealed the pricing but we can guess that it would definitely be below the realme X7 that launched at ₹19,999($275). Also, regarding the rumors of Narzo spinning-off into a separate brand, Madhav says that it is not a sub-brand and will continue to be a part of realme as before.

realme Narzo 30 Series Specs(Expected)

Leaked posters have revealed that realme plans to release only the Narzo 30A and Narzo 30 Pro 5G this time in India. The Narzo 30 Pro 5G as the name suggests will be a 5G-ready device. As the rumors say, a rear image that Madhav recently revealed suggests that the Narzo 30 Pro could be a rebadged realme Q2 from China.

If this is indeed true, the device will sport a 6.5-inch IPS LCD top-left punch-hole FHD+ display, 4 GB / 6 GB of LPPDR4x RAM, and 128 GB of UFS 2.1 storage with microSD card support, rounded-rectangle Triple-camera layout with 48MP+8MP+2MP sensors,  4,880mAh battery side-mounted fingerprint sensor.

The watered-down sibling, Narzo 30A moniker so far appeared on certifications like NBTC, SIRIM but nothing much is known about it. Leaked posters reveal that it will have a square-shaped module with Three cameras and an LED flash. Let’s wait for more details as we close in on the reported February 24 launch.

The post realme Narzo 30 Series Specs revealed by Madhav Sheth appeared first on Gizmochina.

Earlier today, a report said that Narzo 30 series will launch in India on the last week of February. While the brand has just begun to tease it slowly, a new leak by a Twitter user Gadgetsdata(Debayan Roy) reveals the supposed launch date of the devices.

According to the user, the realme Narzo 30 series will launch on February 24 in India. Earlier today, Madhav Sheth, CEO, realme India & Europe, tweeted the poll results of the realme Narzo 30 series box. However, himself or the company hasn’t explicitly confirmed a date yet.

Speaking of which, the series is expected to house three devices- Narzo 30, Narzo 30A, and Narzo 30 Pro. Out of this, the Narzo 30 Pro could be the Cheapest 5G smartphone in India.

The device, whose renders and specs appeared on TENAA reportedly with model number RMX3161, features a 6.5-inch punch-hole display, SA/NSA 5G support, quad-camera setup, 4,880mAh battery, and run Android 11.

realme hasn’t brought the Android 11 to its devices out of the box yet. If you recall, even the recently launched realme X7 series come with Android 10 and realme UI on top. So let’s wait and see if the company brings the latest OS to the devices at launch.

Either way, the Narzo 30 Pro, if launched as teased by Madhav Sheth, should cost less than the realme X7(₹19,999) in the country. The info regarding the other two devices is a bit bleak at the moment. The Narzo 30 could feature a Helio G95 chipset up from the Helio G85 on the predecessor.

The Narzo 30A moniker has been spotted on India’s BIS, Thailand’s NTBC certifications and it looks like both the 30 and 30A are likely a 4G budget offerings contradictory to the Narzo 30 Pro. Let’s wait for more leaks in the run-up to the launch.

The post realme Narzo 30 Series reportedly launching in India on February 24 appeared first on Gizmochina.

Last year, realme introduced the narzo series of smartphones to offer great specs at a little price. This move was necessary as the price of the brand’s number series climbed up the ladder. That said, the company been teasing the next-gen devices in the series called narzo 30 for the past few days. These handsets have been now tipped to launch in India in the last week of February with 5G connectivity on one of them.

Although the realme narzo 30 series in the news, there’s not much information available about these smartphones. Exactly a week earlier, the brand asked the public to select the box design for the vanilla realme narzo 30. Today, the company has even revealed the most voted design.

However, nothing is known about the standard narzo 30 so far. We believe it could be the RMX3085, which was recently spotted on Geekbench with MediaTek Helio G95. So this makes it a 4G handset.

Similarly, there’s another 4G device called narzo 30A, which has been certified by BIS and NBTC. Going by its name, we can expect it to be the cheapest model in the series just like its predecessor narzo 20A.

That leaves us with the narzo 30 Pro. This could be the 5G model that MySmartPrice reports exclusively to launch by the end of February. This phone is expected to be RMX3161 that was recently certified by TENAA with 6.5-inch punch-hole display, quad-camera setup, 4,880mAh battery, and Android 11.

Last but not least, since the company’s CEO has already teased to launch a 5G phone cheaper than the realme X7, the upcoming realme narzo 30 Pro may cost lesser than ₹19,999.

Recently, a bunch of realme devices got certified by the  Eurasian Economic Commission (EEC). Later, a new realme RMX3161 also appeared on the EEC database. Now, the same device has been spotted on China’s TENAA along with key specs and images.

Courtesy of Abhishek Yadav, a realme device with model number RMX3161 appears on the TENAA database. The listing shows that the device supports up to 5G connectivity with NR SA/NSA network support. Further, a few specs and images of the device have also been listed.

Before we jump into specs, if we recall, a realme smartphone with model number RMX3171 recently appeared on Thailand’s NBTC and Malaysia’s SIRIM certifications. Out of this, the NBTC revealed that the device will be called Narzo 30A.

However, we aren’t sure if the RMX3161 belongs to the Narzo 30 series as there isn’t concrete info just yet. Coming back, this device will have a 6.5-inch display as per the listing which could be an LCD/AMOLED panel. Further, the device will measure 162.5×74.8×8.8mm.

Other specs listed are a 4,880mAh battery and Android 11 OS. Talking about the images, the listing shows a device with Black Color. We have a power button with an embedded fingerprint on the right, Volume buttons to the left. It also seems to have a single top-left punch-hole on the display.

On the back, we can see a rounded-rectangle camera layout having four cutouts and an LED flash. However, we are able to spot only three camera sensors as the fourth one isn’t clearly visible. The rear panel also has DARE TO LEAP slogan and realme branding.

Considering the brand has specified that phones above 20,000 will have 5G support it’s a bit of a stretch to expect the latest connectivity on Narzo series which is mostly sold in the budget segment. Speaking of which, Narzo 30 series is expected to launch soon in India. In fact, the company has already started teasing it on its community.

Chinese smartphone maker realme is expected to release a plethora of new products in global markets in the coming days. Some of these devices have been now certified by SIRIM. Hence, they could launch in Malaysia like most realme products.

The devices that have received certifications from the Standard and Industrial Research Institute of Malaysia (SIRIM) include two handsets and two pairs of wireless earphones. These products are as listed below.

• realme C21 (RMX3201)
• realme narzo 30A (RMX3171)
• realme Buds Q2 (RMA2008)
• realme Buds Air 2 (RMA2003)

The certifications do not reveal anything about these devices except for their product category. The phones are listed with support for 4G connectivity, while the two models of realme Buds TWS are certified as wireless earphones.

Talking about the smartphones first, there’s nothing much known about the realme C21 and realme narzo 30A although both of them have bagged multiple certifications. However, realme India has begun to promote the vanilla realme narzo 30 in India. This phone is also a mystery.

On the other hand, some details of the realme Buds Q2 are out, thanks to FCC. It is expected to feature a similar design as the original model, MicroUSB port, 40mAh battery for buds, 400mAh battery for the charging case, and at least two colors (Black, Green).

Lastly, just like the handsets, nothing is known about the realme Buds Air 2.
