Realme came into existence in May of 2018 as a sub-brand of Oppo. A year later, it became an independent brand. Now, the company is gearing up to celebrate its anniversary by launching 8 new products on May 25. Ahead of it, it has been posting teasers to build up the hype. Today, the brand also revealed it has over 35 million users worldwide.

Being a new kid in the town, it is a massive achievement for Realme to acquire over 35 million users worldwide in a span of two years. The brand started in India with Realme 1, a device focussed on performance and design. 

The handset did lack some of the features such as fingerprint sensor, which were present on devices from rival companies. But its affordable starting price of ₹8,990 made it popular among youth who prefer performance for gaming over anything else.

Soon, the brand started bombarding smartphones, which no one ever thought would happen. Ultimately, it became one of the first brands to launch the cheapest phones with a quad-camera setup, pop-up camera, in-display fingerprint sensor, and more.

According to rumours and teasers, the brand will be announcing its first gaming smartphone dubbed as ‘Blade Runner’ on May 25. It is also expected to unveil certain IoT products such as smart TV, smartwatch, and others. 

We will know more about them in the coming days as we expect the brand to drop teasers daily leading up to the day of the launch.
