Previously, Realme was expected to launch the Realme XT 730G variant in India soon. And so far, the device was referred by the same name as its predecessor which was launched with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 712 SoC. However, Madhav Seth, CEO of the company, has now addressed the smartphone as Realme X2 which is similar to its Chinese counterpart that launched with the same name.

According to the tweet by the Senior Executive, Realme X2 will arrive with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 730G SoC which is an octa-core processor. Furthermore, the official Twitter handle of the CEO also gave out other key information about the device. The Realme X2 will feature 30W SuperVOOC which is a proprietary fast-charge technology from the company. On the front, the device is also confirmed to be equipped with a large 32MP selfie camera.

Currently, not much is known about the Indian version of the Realme X2 but if it is similar to the Chinese version than a few speculations can be made. The Chinese X2 featured a 6.4-inch full-HD+ (1080×2340 pixels) Super AMOLED display with a waterdrop-style notch. It was also paired had an in-display fingerprint scanner as well. It sported Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 730G SoC paired with 6GB and 8GB LPDDR4X RAM options.

On the rear, it featured a quad-camera setup that includes a 64MP primary Samsung GW1 sensor alongside a wide-angle lens, depth sensor, and a macro lens. Similar to the Twitter reveal, Realme X2 also features a 32MP front camera, so both smartphones might be the same handset but with minor differences. However, since no official confirmation has been received, no concrete statements can be made.

Notably, the tweet also stated that Twitter users that reshare the original post stand a chance at winning free tickets to the upcoming new Star Wars movie. So, we can expect a special model that collaborates with the Disney production.

Realme has started sending out invites to India media confirming that the Realme XT 730G model and its new TWS earbuds will launch on December 17.

TWS earbuds are the big craze among smartphone makers these days. Earlier today, Realme executives, including India CEO Madhav Sheth, gave us a glimpse of the yellow color model of the Realme earbuds. Other company executives like Francis Wang and Sree Hari have further confirmed that the earbuds will come in at least two more color options including white and black.

The media invite shows that the upcoming Realme earbuds will look like the Apple AirPods with a long-stem design. The invite also reveals that the charging case will be compact with a green charging light. It also confirms that the much-awaited Realme XT 730G variant is launching at the same event.

Given how Realme XT 730G is expected to be a rebranded Realme X2 from China, we can expect the phone to feature a 64-megapixel Samsung GW1 sensor with f/1.8 aperture primary shooter with an 8-megapixel superwide lens with 119-degree field-of-view and f/2.25 aperture, a 2-megapixel macro lens with 4cm focal length and a 2-megapixel portrait lens for adding depth effects to images. The battery on the XT 730G should be the same as the 4000mAh capacity one on the X2.

As for the pricing, the Realme X2 was pretty affordable in China start at 1,599 Yuan (~$224). So expect the India pricing to be slightly higher than this figure.

Given that Realme has started to send out media invites, we can expect official teasers in the coming days.

If you look at the backdrop for the image, you should see an outline of a pair of true wireless stereo earbuds. This will be the company’s first TWS Bluetooth headphones and we are pretty excited to see what they come up with.

The image shows us the earbuds have a similar design to Apple’s own AirPods. We can’t tell what the color is but we really hope it isn’t white. The earbuds will most likely connect via Bluetooth 5.0 and should offer multiple hours of use.

Other than the earbuds, there are reports Realme will announce its first fitness tracker to take on Xiaomi’s Mi Band. Realme has also confirmed it will announce a Snapdragon 730G version of the Realme XT for India next month.
