Chinese smartphone brand realme started recruiting realme UI 2.0 (Android 11) beta testers for the realme X3 and the realme X3 SuperZoom at the end of January. Now, four months later, these smartphones have finally started receiving stable Android 11 update.

The Android 11 update for realme smartphones comes as realme UI 2.0, which is based on OPPO ColorOS 11. Despite releasing Android 11 builds for eligible devices since late September 2020, realme has managed to deliver a stable update only for a select few handsets.

The realme X3 and the realme X3 SuperZoom are the latest phones to join the elite list of realme devices running Android 11 (realme UI 2.0).

According to the official announcement post on realme Community, the realme X3 / X3 SuperZoom Android 11-based realme UI 2.0 update arrives with build number RMX2081PU_11.C.06. Users need to be on build number RMX2081PU_11.A.53 to receive this update.

The update is being rolled out in batches, and therefore, it may take some time to reach every unit. Anyway, users can head over to Settings > Software Update to check whether their phone has received the OTA update.

Users not satisfied with the realme UI 2.0 update can roll back to Android 10-based realme UI. However, this process will wipe the handset’s internal storage.

Chinese smartphone maker realme unveiled realme UI 2.0 based on Android 11 in late September 2020. Just like the previous iteration, the latest version of the brand’s mobile operating system is based on OPPO ColorOS, version 11 to be exact. So far, the company has only released stable update for a single device – realme X50 Pro. However, multiple phones have received beta builds. Now, six more handsets have been added to the beta program.

Every OEM has a different name for their beta program. Hence, realme calls its initiative ‘Early Access’. When the brand officially announced realme UI 2.0 in the second half of last year, it also revealed an update timeline for all the eligible smartphones.

The company has been recruiting beta teasers for its devices, as per the schedule. Therefore, following the timeline, it has now opened beta registrations for the below-listed phones as part of the January 2021 quota.

• realme X3
• realme X3 SuperZoom
• realme X2
• realme 6
• realme C12
• realme C15

Interested users of the above-mentioned handsets can head over to Settings > Software Update > Gear Icon > Trial Version > Apply Now and submit details to enroll in the initiative. If they get selected, they will be receiving the beta update via OTA.

That said, for some reason, any user wants to downgrade to the stable channel, they can do it by downloading and installing the appropriate rollback file. However, it is worth noting that this process will format their smartphone’s internal storage and they won’t be able to rejoin the Early Access program.

With all that being said, we do not know when realme will begin to seed stable builds for these phones. Because even the previous batch is yet to receive the stable update.
