    Realme XT Has Its Specs Revealed, With 64MP Quad Camera And Snapdragon 712 SoC

    Realme is one of the newest in the top 10 smartphone OEMs in the world. The company was once an Oppo subsidiary but now exists as an independent brand. Earlier this month, the Realme 5 series was launched in India in an event that also teased its upcoming flagship the Realme XT. Now, the latter has its key specs revealed according to a report from China.

    Realme XT

    Camera

    One of the highly advertised parts of the latest generation Realme smartphones is their cameras. The Realme XT, along with its other new-generation device, sports a quad-camera setup on the rear. However, the XT differs from the rest with a 64MP Samsung GW1 sensor that the company has just unveiled. The primary shooter has an f/1.8 aperture while the remaining three cameras include an 8MP wide-angle lens, and two 2MP Macro and Depth sensors respectively. On the front, the selfie camera is a 16MP shooter, much like the Realme 5 Pro.

    Specs & Features

    The Realme X was launched just two months prior so the XT wouldn’t be a direct successor to it. Rather, the device can be considered a separate variant with a slight bump in specs and features. The Realme XT sports a 6.4 inch Super AMOLED display with a waterdrop notch on the front. Furthermore, it also has an in-display fingerprint scanner for biometric security. It features Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 712 SoC alongside 4GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage. The device will be available in two variants with 6GB + 64GB or 8GB + 128GB. Realme XT is powered by a large 4,000mAh battery which supports 20W VOOC 3.0 fast charging

    Price & Availability

    The Realme XT will run the Android 9 Pie-based ColorOS 6 skin and will be offered in Silver Wing White and Pearl Blue colour options. Unfortunately, the exact pricing for the two variants of the device is currently unknown. However, it is confirmed to launch next month in China. According to the company, an Indian launch will arrive sometime before Diwali.

  • Realme XT Confirmed To Arrive Before Diwali With A 64MP Quad Camera

    Realme XT Confirmed To Arrive Before Diwali With A 64MP Quad Camera

    On 20th of August 2019, Realme unveiled its Realme 5 series of smartphones which will debut in India. The event saw details regarding the devices and gave us a slight glimpse of what to expect in the near future. Previously, we had reported about an upcoming Realme smartphone with 64MP quad camera setup. Now, it has been confirmed by the company that the device will be called Realme XT.

    Realme XT

    What To Expect
    • A 64MP Quad Camera Setup:
      Realme has already confirmed that the Realme XT will feature a quad camera setup with the primary camera being a 64MP sensor. Samsung launched the ISOCELL Bright GW1 sensor is the only sensor that fits the criteria. Hence, it is quite possible that Realme XT will feature this sensor. Unfortunately, it is not known what purpose the other three cameras serve. However, since Realme 5 Pro features an 8MP wide angle lens alongside a 2MP macro camera and 2MP depth sensor, similar sensors might also be found on the XT. Additionally, the smartphone may also house a popup selfie camera similar to its sibling, the Realme X.

    • AMOLED Display:
      Earlier this year, Realme X was launched with a 6.53 inch AMOLED display. Furthermore, since the upcoming Realme XT is a beefed up variant of the same series, it is likely to sport an AMOLED panel. Notably, the company had teased a silhouette of the Realme XT which did not reveal a rear mounted fingerprint scanner. Thus, an in display sensor which is also present on the Realme X may make a reappearance. 

    Realme XT

    • Better Internals:
      The exact specifications of the Realme XT is currently a mystery. However, there is a high chance of it being a premium grade flagship smartphone. A Snapdragon 855+ device from Realme is expected to arrive soon and it might be the XT since Realme X was launched with Snapdragon 710 and was an upper mid range smartphone.

    Price & Availability

    Realme XT is likely to be priced higher than existing members of the series. The reason for this is likely due to its bumped up camera specs and numbers alongside better internals. Lastly, the company had confirmed that the device will arrive right before Diwali. It means that we can expect a September-October launch date. 

  • Realme 5 Pro Vs Redmi Note 7 Pro: Which One To Choose?

    Realme 5 Pro Vs Redmi Note 7 Pro: Which One To Choose?

    On the 20th of August, Realme launched two new smartphones which include the Realme 5 and Realme 5 Pro. As the name suggests, the latter is a beefed-up variant and it sports a better chipset and camera. Going by its pricing, the newly launched device competes against the Redmi Note 7 Pro which is one of the best value smartphones in this segment available in the country. 

    Both the handsets from Realme and Redmi have similar specs which make it difficult for the consumer to choose the best option. To help solve the dilemma we have laid out the different aspects of the Realme 5 Pro and the Redmi Note 7 Pro. Consequently, after reading the article you will determine which device suits your need and which one you should pick if you planning to buy a mid-ranger. 

    Design and Build

    In terms of build, both the Redmi Note 7 Pro and the Realme 5 Pro have glass on the front and back which is held together with a polycarbonate chassis. The front of the two handsets have a waterdrop notch display which provides them with an elegant look.

    The Redmi Note 7 Pro is offered in four colour variants which include Nebula Red, Neptune Blue, Space Black and Astro White. In contrast, the Realme 5 Pro is offered in two variants which include Crystal Green and Crystal Blue. 

    Based on our design preferences, we feel the holographic rear panel of the Realme 5 Pro looks more appealing therefore we give it the first round. 

    Display
    Redmi Note 7 Pro

    Both the Redmi Note 7 Pro and the Realme 5 Pro are equipped with an LCD display that measures 6.3 inch. Moreover, the resolution of the display panel on the two smartphones is 409 ppi and they have an aspect ratio of 19.5:9. 

    While the former is safeguarded with Corning Gorilla Glass 5 the latter settles down with the Gorilla Glass 3. Due to better display protection, Redmi Note 7 Pro wins this round.

    Battery
    Realme 5 Pro

    The Redmi Note 7 Pro is powered a 4,000 mAh battery that supports 18 W fast charging. On the other hand, the Realme 5 Pro has a slightly larger battery which has a capacity of 4,035 mAh and it also supports VOOC 3.0 technology. 

    The technology allows the smartphone to be charged with a maximum power of 20 W which is tad bid higher than the Note 7 Pro. However, the Realme 5 Pro ships with a 20 W compatible charger whereas its competitor is shipped with a 10 W charger. Slightly bigger battery and in-box fast charger make Realme’s offering take this round. 

    Chipset
    Redmi Note 7 Pro

    Both the smartphones are kitted with Qualcomm chipsets. While the Realme 5 Pro packs the Snapdragon 712 SoC, the Redmi Note 7 Pro packs the Snapdragon 675 SoC. 

    Chipsets on both smartphones consist of Octa-Core CPU though they have disparate GPUs. The SD712 incorporates the Adreno 616 while the SD675 Adreno 612 GPU. Although we are yet to test the Realme’s offering, the performance that the two can churn out is expected to be comparable. Therefore, based on the assumptions this round results in a tie. 

    Other Features
    Redmi Note 7 Pro
    Redmi Note 7 Pro

    Connectivity options on the two smartphones are also heterogenous which include dual 4G VoLTE, 802.11 ac Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.0, 3.5 mm headphone jack and the bottom-mounted USB Type C port which can be used for charging and data transfer. 

    Both the Redmi Note 7 Pro and the Realme 5 Pro also have a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor which allows to rapidly and securely bypass the lock screen. However, one feature that only the former offers, is an IR blaster. Although not a huge deal breaker or deal maker, this feature can come in handy more often than not. 

    Just for the record, the inclusion of an infrared sensor makes the Note 7 Pro steer ahead of its competitor in this segment.

  • Realme 5 Pro Will Have The Snapdragon 710 Claims Geekbench Listing

    Realme 5 Pro Will Have The Snapdragon 710 Claims Geekbench Listing

    BBK electronic’s sub-brand and OnePlus’ sister company, Realme is bracing for the launch of its latest smartphone lineup which will carry the Realme 5 branding. The lineup will consist of two handsets which include the ‘standard’ variant and the  ‘Pro’ variant. 

    Earlier this month, the Realme 5 was listed on the popular benchmarking website, Geekbench which revealed its key specs. Similarly, another Realme smartphone has been spotted on the website which allegedly is the beefed up Realme 5 Pro.

    According to the listing, the smartphone packs the Snapdragon 710 SoC which is dissimilar to what was previously claimed. Another unverified report in the past claimed that the device will pack the Snapdragon 712 SoC which may turn out false. Nevertheless, talking about SD710, it consists of an Octa-Core CPU and Adreno 616 GPU.

    The listing also revealed that the alleged Realme 5 Pro has 8 GB of RAM which is usually found in high-end flagship smartphones.  In terms of Geekbench result, the device secures a single-core score of 1143 points and a multi-core score of 4618 points. 

    Shockingly, both the single-core and a multi-core score of this Realme smartphone is much less in comparison to other devices featuring the same chipset including the Realme X. However, benchmarks can be improved by tweaking the software ahead of official announcement.

    Although the listing does not reveal any other aspects of the Realme 5 Pro, key details can be derived from prior reports. The key highlighting feature of the smartphone will be its quad-camera rear setup out of which the main sensor will either have a resolution of 48 MP or 64 MP.

    Additionally, it has already been confirmed that the Realme 5 will be priced under Rs 10,000. Accordingly, we believe the Pro variant will cost between the Rs 12,000 and Rs 18,000 which will vary depending on the storage variant.

    In order to confirm all the rumours and leaks, we won’t have to wait for long as the launch date of the smartphone is set for the 20th of August.

    Realme 5 Series With Quad Camera To Launch On 20th August

    Since the past month, Realme had been teasing a couple of exciting new features for its upcoming range of smartphones. It includes a 64MP camera handset which will make it debut in India alongside a quad camera setup. Previously, we had confirmed, for the most part, that it would be the Realme 5 series. Now, the official launch date has finally been revealed on the online shopping site Flipkart. 

    Realme 5

    The company is promoting the upcoming sale with the “Join the real 5quad” tagline. The image features a quad-camera module which was already confirmed previously in the Realme event earlier this month. Furthermore, while we had speculated that the camera would be a 64MP primary shooter, it has now also been confirmed to not be the case. The 64MP shooting smartphone will arrive just before 27th October on Diwali. It implies that the Realme 5 will have a smaller sensor which is likely to be a 48MP sensor.

    Launch Date & Specs

    Unfortunately, the devices in question are shrouded in mystery. Realme 5’s exact internal specs are still unknown and it seems that it will only be unveiled at the time of its launch. Furthermore, the camera module is expected to house an ultra-wide-angle lens, Super Macro camera and a depth sensor alongside the primary shooter. The smartphones will launch at 12:00 pm (IST) and are expected to be priced similar to its predecessor’s Realme 3. Number 4 is considered unlucky in China and is hence skipped.

    Upcoming Realme Smartphones To Feature Quad Cameras, Will Launch Before Diwali

    At Realme’s Camera Innovation Event on 8th August, the company gave out a few features to be expected on its upcoming smartphones. The brand which was previously an Oppo subsidiary has grown to be one of the top 10 company since its relatively short run in the industry. Now, the brand has confirmed that its next-gen Realme Pro and Realme X series of the smartphone will feature quad cameras. They are also confirmed to launch before Diwali. 

    The company’s official Twitter handle and a few of its top executives have been pushing the phrase dare to leap. The “leap” was to describe the jump to quad-camera technology. In the event, the company confirmed that the Realme 3 and X series will have successors that feature quad cameras. Notably, Realme X was just launched in July and is speculated to receive a Pro variant soon. Previously, a 64MP smartphone had been teased by the company that was speculated to be the Realme 5 or 5 Pro.

    In April, it was reported that Realme would soon launch a flagship smartphone with Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 or 855+. It now remains to be seen which device in the various lineups features the top end mobile chipset. After the event, the company also shared its future plans on Twitter. According to the images shared, the quad cameras are set up in a vertical manner on the top left on all three series. Furthermore, the images also hint at an in-display fingerprint scanner since no physical sensor is visible on the rear.

    Realme 5 Confirmed With 64MP Quad Camera, May Feature Snapdragon 855

    Earlier this week, we had reported on news regarding an upcoming Realme smartphone. The device was distinctive due to its 64MP primary sensor in a quad-camera module. Unfortunately, the company had not unveiled any other details, besides the fact that a media briefing will be held on the 8th August 2019.

    However, before the media event takes place, it has been confirmed that the upcoming smartphone will be the Realme 5.

    Surprisingly, the company has not launched the Realme 4 and is jumping straight to 5. This is due to the fact that the number ‘4’ is considered unlucky in Chinese culture. Previously, OnePlus had also skipped the number as well jumping straight to the OnePlus 5 from the OnePlus 3.

    Furthermore, Realme has a relatively simple nomenclature format in which models with just a cardinal number are generally the flagships. They are then followed by a Pro and Lite variants later down the road.
