Realme, a brand that started in India merely a year ago, is now planning to launch its first smartphone in international shores — the Realme X — and there is plenty that we know about the device already. From what we know, the Realme X isn’t going to be a hardware-packed monster like the OnePlus 7 Pro but its still a flagship smartphone. The Realme X is expected to be the company’s first smartphone to sport a full-screen, notch-less display and also Realme’s first offering to likely feature a pop-up selfie camera and an in-display fingerprint sensor. We also know that Realme will be bringing the Realme X to India shortly after the global launch. [caption id=“attachment_6636201” align=“alignnone” width=“1024”] Leaked image of the Realme X.

Snapdragon 710 SoC, 3,765 mAh battery and more
The Realme X gets a Snapdragon 710 SoC (no SD 855, sadly), a 3,765 mAh battery with VOOC 3.0 support and will be available in a single variant with 8 GB RAM and 128 GB of storage. The phone will also run Android Pie-based ColosOS 6.0 out of the box.

Spring-loaded pop-up camera, 91% screen-to-body-ratio, in-display fingerprint scanner
The Realme X will come with a spring-loaded pop-up camera which Realme claims to work in just 0.72 seconds. This implementation lets Realme push the screen-to-body ratio up to 91.2 percent.
As expected, the Realme X also features an in-display fingerprint scanner.

More on the Realme X Lite
Though this is redundant information, like the Realme 3 Pro sold in India, the X Lite comes with VOOC 3.0 fast-charging support and the company’s Game Boost software, a 6.3-inch display with a teardrop notch…. You get the drift, its the same phone as the Realme 3 Pro sans the name, of course.
Realme X Lite unveiled
The Realme X Lite features a Qualcomm Snapdragon 710, 6 GB RAM, 128 GB of storage and a 4,045 mAh battery. We didn’t know that this phone was launching. It seems like this is the ‘Realme X Youth Edition’ spoken about in the leaks.
Okay, we’re already yawning now
It’s been half and hour that we begun and there’s still nothing about a new phone yet.
Here are some more firsts by Realme
Realme claims to be first in bringing the 8 GB RAM + 128 GB storage to budget smartphone space. But we’ve know that for a while now.
Oh stop it with the showboating now!
