After teasing for quite a white, realme has finally launched the realme X7 series in India. The series consists of two devices, namely realme X7 and realme X7 Pro. Interestingly, the brand did not bring the original X7 to India. Instead, it rebranded the recently released realme V15 5G as realme X7 for the country. With that being said, let us take a look at the specs, features, price, and availability of these handsets.

realme X7/X7 Pro Specifications and Features

Design

The realme X7 series looks like any other realme smartphone with a vertically aligned camera setup on the back and colorful gradient finishes. The duo also features the brand’s slogan (DARE TO LEAP) on their real panel. However, the panel of the regular realme X7 is made of polycarbonate instead of glass as on the realme X7 Pro.

As for colors, the realme X7 can be bought in either Nebula or Space Silver, whereas the realme X7 Pro is sold in Fantasy and Mystic Black versions.

Display

The vanilla realme X7 sports a 6.4-inch FHD+ (2400 x 1080 pixels) Super AMOLED display with a punch-hole at the top left corner. This panel comes with a 60Hz refresh rate, 180Hz touch sampling rate, 600 nits peak brightness, in-screen fingerprint sensor, 20:9 aspect ratio, 90.8% screen-to-body ratio, and 1000000:1 contrast ratio.

On the other hand, the realme X7 Pro flaunts a 6.55-inch Super AMOLED display with a resolution of 2400 x 1080 pixels (FHD+), 120Hz refresh rate, 240Hz touch sampling rate, and 1200 nits peak brightness. Other parameters of this screen include an in-display fingerprint sensor, punch-hole on the top left side, 20:9 aspect ratio, 91.6% screen-to-body ratio, a 6000000:1 contrast ratio, 100% DCI-P3 color gamut, 103% NTSC color gamut, and Corning Gorilla Glass 5 protection.

Internals

Although both The realme X7 and realme X7 Pro come with LPDDR4X RAM and UFS 2.1 internal storage, the chipsets are different on the two. The Pro model is powered by MediaTek Dimensity 1000+ SoC paired with 8GB RAM and 128GB internal storage, whereas the regular model has a less powerful MediaTek Dimensity 800U chipset and it maxes out at 128GB internal storage but the maximum amount of RAM is 8GB.

Further, both of them feature a similar set of sensors, such as a compass, ambient light sensor, gyroscope, proximity sensor, and accelerometer. However, although the duo runs the same Android 10-based realme UI operating system, the realme X7 is backed by a smaller 4,310mAh battery with support for 50W fast charging as opposed to a larger 4,500mAh battery in the realme X7 Pro that can charge at a rate of 65W.

Camera

Talking about optics, the realme X7 Pro houses a quad-camera setup on the back consisting of a 64MP Sony IMX686 primary sensor, an 8MP secondary sensor with a 119° ultra-wide-angle lens, a 2MP tertiary sensor with a macro lens (4cm), and a 2MP quaternary monochrome sensor for portrait shots. Whereas, selfies and video calls are taken care of by a 32MP front-facing shooter.

The realme X7, on the other hand, sports a triple camera setup on the back that includes a 64MP primary sensor paired with an 8MP ultra-wide unit (119°) and a 2MP macro snapper. Further, on the front, it features a 16MP camera for video calls and selfies.

As far as video recording is concerned, the cheaper model maxes out at 4K 30fps and 720 240fps slow-motion from the rear camera and 1080p 30fps and 1010 120fps slow-motion from the front camera. However, the costlier model can also record at 4K 60fps from the back camera.

Connectivity and Ports

The realme X7 series support 5G although the networks are not live in India. Both the devices come with a dual-SIM card slot, dual-band WiFi, and GNSS (GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, GALILEO, QZSS). 

However, the realme X7 Pro not only has WiFi 6 but also NFC as compared to only WiFi 5 on the realme X7. But the former comes with Bluetooth 5.0 instead of Bluetooth 5.1 as found in the latter.

Anyway, both of them sport a USB Type-C port and lack a 3.5mm headphone jack as well as a microSD card slot. Additionally, the Pro model also comes with dual stereo speakers.

realme has finally launched the realme X7 Pro in Malaysia. The flagship smartphone will retail for RM1,999($494) in the country which is way cheaper than the Thailand price.

realme X7 Pro Malaysia – Price, Availability

Unlike the Chinese variants, the realme X7 Pro comes with a single 8GB RAM, 256GB storage variant in Malaysia. This is priced at RM1,999($494) in the country. To compare, the X7 Pro launched at THB16,990 in Thailand which is about $567.

As you can see, the Dimensity flagship is about $73 cheaper than its first Global appearance. What’s even interesting is that the Thailand version had only 128GB of storage.

If you take China, the 256GB variant was priced exactly the same at launch i.e, 3,199 yuan($494). All this sends a strong hint that we can expect realme to be even more aggressive in other markets like India.

Anyway, the device will be available on Shopee in Malaysia and the first sale starts on February 2, 2021, at 12AM MST(Malaysian Standard Time). realme is also giving a discount of RM50 for the first sale bringing the effective price down to RM 1,949($481).

realme X7 Pro Specifications

realme X7 Pro in Malaysia will be available in Iridescent(Gradient) and Skyline White color options. It misses out on the Xingyu Black that is available in China and Thailand. Other than this the rest of the device is almost similar.

The device features a 6.55-inch Super AMOLED FHD+ display protected by Gorilla Glass 5 and has a top-left punch-hole. It supports 2400x1080p resolution, 91.6% screen-body ratio, 120Hz refresh, and 240Hz touch sampling rate, covers 103% NTSC and 100% DCI-P3, and has brightness up to 1200 nits.

Under the hood, you get a MediaTek Dimensity 1000+ chipset paired with LPDDR4x RAM and UFS 2.1+Turbo Write storage. For cameras, we get the same quad-cameras with 64MP main, 8MP ultra-wide, two 2MP macro and B&W sensors. Upfront, there is a 32MP selfie snapper.

Other features include SA/NSA 5G(DS+DS), Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.0, Dual Frequency GPS, 4,500mAh battery with 65W SuperDart Charging, Type-C port, and realme UI based on Android 10.

realme started the global journey of the X7 series with realme X7 Pro launch in Thailand. Later, the company confirmed that it’s bringing the series to India this year. And it has already started appearing on support pages. Now, the company has revealed the launch date of the ‘Pro’ variant in Malaysia.

In a Facebook post, realme Malaysia says that the realme X7 Pro 5G will debut in Malaysia on January 26. It’s worth noting that the company has explicitly mentioned the ‘Pro’ like Thailand and Taiwan. However, we can’t rule out the possibility of the company launching the non-Pro(i.e., realme X7) variant in the future.

Anyway, the launch event will happen at 12:00 PM MST(UTC+08:00). Surprisingly, the event will be happening via Facebook which means you can expect a live stream on the platform. Plus, realme Malaysia also said that realme Watch S Pro will accompany the X7 Pro on Jan. 26 event.

realme X7 Pro 5G Specifications

Thanks to the early China launch, we know what to expect from the realme X7 Pro Malaysian variant. We can already spot the Gradient color with that ‘DARE TO LEAP’ slogan etching on the realme Malaysia Poster page. The Chinese variant also has two other options- Black and Fantasy White colors.

The device features a 6.55-inch sAMOLED 120Hz FHD+ display and is powered by MediaTek’s Dimensity 1000+ SoC. This is paired with up to 8 GB of LPDDR4x RAM, and 256 GB of UFS 2.1 storage. For cameras, we have a quad-camera setup with a 64MP main lens, an 8MP ultra-wide, 2MP macro, and depth lenses. Upfront, there is a 32MP sensor inside the top-left punch-hole for selfies.

Other features include an in-display fingerprint sensor, 4,500mAh battery with 65W fast charging, SA/NSA 5G, Bluetooth 5.1, Wi-Fi, 4K video recording, dual-frequency GPS, NFC, stereo speakers, and more. It could run Realme UI based on Android 10 but with Android 11 already out, it will only be fair for realme to bring that to flagship.

The Realme X7 series of smartphones with exciting and power-saving features have now been released in Thailand, as the brand makes inroads into the overseas market after the release of the X7 series in China on September 1. The Bangkok, Thailand rollout features, for now, only the Realme X7 Pro, while the other models in the lineup make their way into the global smartphone market.

The X7 Pro is already available at the leading Thai online stores. The option available presently is the single memory device and it comes in two color options – Black and Gradient.

The choice of the Thai market as the first overseas debut for the Realme X7 series is yet unclear but may be indicative of an emerging business direction for the Realme brand, as it seems to tap from previously untapped markets in growing the firm.

The Realme X7 Pro runs on a Dimensity 1000+ chipset with next-generation 5G support. The fact that Thailand is among a very small class of South Asian countries that have established a functional 5G infrastructure, although quite restricted, could also be a major factor leading to the overseas debut of the X7 Pro in that country. This means the super-fast functionality of 5G will be on display with the smartphone even though Thailand is just a budding upstart in the technology and its supporting network architecture.

Several other exciting features are present in the just-released smartphone. Fast charging functionality is present (65W), it has a 64MP main camera that is bound to produce powerful and crisp visuals, a 6.55 inch AMOLED screen with a decent 120Hz refresh rate, and a 240Hz touch sampling rate. The smartphone also comes with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of memory.

The Realme X7 Pro sells from THB16,990 in Thailand (about $570 or €465).

Realme is expected to launch the X7 series on September 1. The series is made up of the Realme X7 and X7 Pro and that has already been confirmed by several teasers and leaks. However, a new rumour has emerged that the Chinese company will also be launching a third version that would be known as Realme X7 Pro Player.

The Realme X7 Pro Player is rumoured to feature a Snapdragon 860 chipset as agaist the MediaTek Dimensity 1000+ that will be on the regular Pro. A leaked poster which appeared recently shows the device will pack a Snapdragon 860 SoC which is yet to be announced. Thus, the phone may be the first to feature the processor.  Although the details of the phone is yet to be revealed, it maylikely be a middle ground between Snapdragon 855 and Snapdragon 865.

This won’t be the first Realme model to get a Player edition. Backin February this year, the Realme X50 Pro 5G had a layer version targeted at gamer. The phone comes with an improved cooling and extra layers for better heat dissipation. We’ll have to wait for the launch date to confirm if there will indeed be a X7 Pro Player version.
