  • i want Realme X2 PREMIUM with 108Mp

  • I think no,

  • I don't think so, since XT is available in Ph. But X2 Pro will be available in PH very soon

  • The Global version is available in Europe.

  • will this be available in the Philippines ?

  • China set has less some LTE bands support. That is all.

  • I need the global rom of x2. Can u help me?

  • I was also concerned about this but I talked with some x2 users they said that they are not having this type issue. And color os' chinese and global rom is almost same

  • But it burning hot when you play.. Thats the downside

  • Is it navigable in Bangladesh? Some adviser said Google issue not worked with X2..

  • Yup..

  • Or are the ones sold in europe considered global?

  • Is the one sold at amazon.es considered global? (Spanish version)

  • You won't have access to Google services, since China blocks them and they won't come pre-installed, and also you might have problems with LTE reception

  • Chinese version is similar like global if any problem I buy Chinese version any Google issue?

  • What's the SAR value of this phone?

  • Realme X2 pro so promising handphone now, i will buy it when it release in indonesia

  • You need to focus on battery life like at least 4000map. Camera is secondary. Sd cards are preferable so you won't have to use battery life to transfer them to the cloud aka Google photos. Ram is needed for games, but you can revise what games you play based on what phone you get. However, look up your favorite games in the app store & find out how much memory they require. That will be your minimum phone memory requirement. Again since you don't charge your phone battery size is the most important priority! Usually you'll find larger batteries with larger screen sized phones.

  • it has c.g glass 5 protection on the back

  • chinese rom.. and not preinstalled any google app but u can install it... and for realme chinese version is almost similler like global version just u have to install google apps by urself

  • ya.. why not?

  • it has

  • its available alrdy

  • no doubt its x2

  • I am also can't

  • Honor 9X it will be good phone for you.

  • which one is better, realme xt or realme x2 ?

  • Hello my fellow mates, My budget is around 15k to 20k please let me know which phone i can buy.. i like to take pics, so need good camera i like games, so need performance i need that phone to have a good battery life and mainly i don't change phone so often need a phone with good life... Thanks for spending time to read, PEACE OUT..!!!

  • Realme X2 or Mi 9T, camera wise?

  • OTG cable support

  • Hi. Does the phone also support USB-C PD, since this is requested / required by Google now, for all phone being released with Google services pre installed?

  • maybe users says global rom they means realme xt(sd712) for india another realme will come in december, realme xt 730G this model also for india yet no global X2, just China Rom

  • no where the phone is not yet global realme x its global x2 maybe later

  • u can register using laptop desktop then u can now register using your phone

  • Where to buy global rom version of this? Thanks in advance

  • Me too,I want to ask that.

  • I cant create account on my realme x2 china rom Because im in philippines My no. Reject whem im regiistering it

  • China rom has no google apps installed

  • What is the difference between China visiom and global vision on realme x2

  • Yes it has all 3G and 4G bands included for Bulgarian Networks Max Telecom, Vivatel, Telenor etc...

  • Really? When the time is it release in Indonesia?

  • I'm confused on the official europe store it lists band 28 but here on gsmarena it doesn't list band 28. Is gsmarena incorrect?

  • The X2 Pro already passed TKDN check, need not to questioning this one.

  • Will this phone work in the US ? Tmobile

  • Hey guys, will X2 work in Europe, more specific in Bulgaria for 4G network? It seems like it will if I get it correct. Also Aliexpress sellers promote Chinese ROM with google play preinstalled, multilanguage which sounds good enough.

  • yes supported

  • Realme X2 Do Support wide angle video Recording?

  • You'll get the china version

  • does it support gcam??

  • No because as far as I know, phone companies launch phones in china with their chinese rom only, So no global rom from china

  • Can anyone please tell if I can buy a global version of Realme X2 from China. I mean, is a global version of this phone available in China? Purpose is to buy this at a cheaper rate compare to other countries

  • So which OS do you prefer between the 2 phones? I seem to prefer MIUI 10 but the K20 doesn't have memory card, which is why I'm considering the X2

  • if i buy realme x2 from China will i get global version or Chinese version

  • why don't you try to watch in youtube?

  • There's no notification LED, it has an always in display. So whatever notifications will appear on the screen.

  • There's a video comparision in youtube and I was disappointed to see the camera quality is inferior to the rest. Anyway I worked with camera sensors before and I know what kind of hassle it is trying to calibrate them. But that's all there is to it. All I'm saying is RealMe should do a better job of calibrating these sensors before shipping them out. However I buy this phone for this price(specially for Amoled screen) any day.

  • If you don't mind, can you please kindly tell a little bit about camera quality please. I am planning to buy this phone. Thanks

  • Please tell me the release date in Sri Lanka...

  • No

  • You must be having A50

  • The Chinese ROM doesn't come pre-installed with Google Play store of which one has to install by self. Also take not that if you want to purchase for use in Nigeria, take note of the network bands as MTN supports bands 3 & 7 for 4G LTE of which this phone has only Band 3 for use with MTN 4G LTE. All other networks are good to go. So the choice is yours.

  • Is there a notification LED on board?

  • plz tell me the realise date in Bangladesh.

  • Lots of people praising this phone just because they see the number 64. Yeah that's 64MP raw hardware with no real R&D for calibration and software backup behind it. The image quality is probably lower than Samsung A50 25MP. I hope RealMe drops this strategy of high end specs without support+low prices and starts honest development of it's own products.

  • Is this phone worthy ?!??! Global version or ?!? Has someone already experienced it first hand ?!?! It seems kinda like Oppo K5, in comparison which is better!??!

  • no

  • 5 December

  • Who own x2 can you pls tell me if u can change your default launcher thanks

  • Plz tell me the realise date in india.

  • No fm Radio china rom

  • Please!can you release in malaysia.I want buy this phone.please!!!!

  • Popup camera would male it perfect. I would buy one but notches i don’t like.

  • Cannot change default launcher so far so good China rom

  • You thank Xiaomi for that. They forced their competitors to become this good

  • it's got nfc

  • The features of this device for its price is just mind blowing! Although as good as it is, it could always be better. It think aesthetically, the Realme X is way better looking than this. It's easily the best design from Realme. IMO a Centralized Rear Camera is way better aesthetically and in efficiency. As great and appealing as pop-up cams are, especially for those who love full screen designs, the down side would be that; 1 Such devices would have somewhat inferior hardware and sensors {even if they have high MP} 2 One would have to rely on fingerprint unlock even when facial unlock is available, since the cam would need to pop up before unlocking which is a waste of time. 3 Pop-up cams aren't feasible in the long run as they are more prone to a wider range of defects. Personally i prefer pop-ups only because i hate notches! I honestly thought they'd have stopped implementing its design in newly released devices. That's why i'd rather have a Front design like it is on Samsung S8, S9, Nokia 9 Pureview with a trimmed top bezel with no bottom bezels. With this, features like IR blasters, LED Notification and Solid Selfie Cam Hardware Features like a depth sensor {TOF Cam} can be incorporated. This, with a centralized back cam is the best design a device could ever have! The Camera would have been better if OIS and EIS were incorporated, not a fan of Quad/ multiple camera setups, makes the rear look so clumsy and busy to me. But since that's what's, trending a tri-camera would have been preferred. A depth sensor isn't needed if the primary camera hardware and sensor are on point. A main camera setup with a large sensor and OIS { like it is on the exceptional Nokia Lumia 1020} 12MP Ultra-wide 12MP Telephoto with OIS, would have been dope rather than that clumsy looking Quad setup 64MP Main looks ok though, since it promises more versatility than a normal 16MP Cam Please can someone knowledgeable on camera setups differentiate between Macro, Telescopic and Periscopic cameras? Another issue i have is the size, Realme really needs to start making compact phones, 6.0-6.3¨ screen size, is dope enough, plus it would increase the pixel density and conserve battery. Don't really know much about ColourOS, can't they just lunch a device with my recommended specs with Android One OS like Nokia does? Aside these, i really have no issues... Price is on point, Battery is on point, people asking for bigger battery have no idea what they're talking about, 4000MAH is more than enough with its energy efficient chipset and fast charging. It should be able to last at least a day after which you can charge it. Bigger battery means bigger screens and more weight which renders the whole point of having a smart mobile phone useless. Camera features are just ok, Processor is more than Capable, Amoled Screens is a bonus delight, Sound systems look good enough, Network connectivity range looks good enough. Features equal or even outclass Xiaomi Mi 9T in some categories.

  • No nfc so useless if you want pay by phone in the UK

  • is this a good camera ?

  • That's great

  • Samsung sensor

  • Is the camera, sony?

  • finlay a midrange phone with great audio quality ive been waiting for this device to exist finally

  • Plz launch fast in india

  • Xiaomi needs to focus less on the future, and bring its attention to what's happening RIGHT NOW... OPPO and Realme are stealing the show!

  • best balanced phone existing now in market

  • when this phone rilis in Indonesia? I am wait it.

  • There is yet no such thing as global rom. It is only sold in China and of course it is Chinese rom.

  • please realme, launching this phone soon in indonesia..

  • Of course you can. Brother

  • i love this phone. please launch it in the philippines...

  • The global ROM most definitely

  • What is the difference between Chinese ROM and Global?

  • Hello everyone, please i need detailed explanation between global and Chinese ROM, the pros and cons. To be used in Nigeria

  • Which one are you getting, the global or Chinese rom

  • Will this phone work in Belgium/Europe and have 4G?

  • Can we use the realme x2 in Bangladesh

  • Yes it can. Hoping to get it come 11.11 via AliExpress deals

  • realme isn't globale pay attention "lte B3/B7/B20" without those bands it can't be used in north africa and europe .

  • Please can this phone be used in nigeria

  • please is this phone a global version or Chinese version and does it have Google play and apps for Android

  • Spec says gg5 both front and back, you cannot argue with that.

  • What are the sar values of realme smartphone

  • It has a plastic back not glass. Saw this in youtube.

  • Can anyone ensure me about the ROM installed in X2 ?! :-\ Is it Chinese or Global ?!

  • Me too

  • Correction: The 6/64 sells for around 200eur in China. If you head to online sellers you should be able to get one for not much more than 250.

  • the government is trying to got rid of black market, so every phone that imported illegally wouldn't be able to use any provider --it sucks, I know--. this is also one big reason I don't choose any xiaomi brand, they only released the budget one here

  • The 6/64 sells for around 250eur in China. If you head to online sellers you should be able to get one for not much more than 300.

  • When will it launch in Singapore

  • SAMOLED Display FHD Res CGG 5 dedicated SD slot Android 10 SD 7XX 6GB RAM 30W fast charge damn, perfectly what i need. i hope it released at indonesia soon and keep the price under 300 EUR (Realme X end up priced at 245 EUR so i'm sure it'll be at least 250 EUR here)

  • And me also

  • Very good

  • Up. Need to know the date too.

  • Please launch in the Philippines, many filipinos waiting to this phone. Especially me!!!

  • Launching date in the Philippines?...

  • UP

  • Agreed. Thank goodness this doesn't have the popup camera.

  • Please launch in indonesia immediately, i have a plan to buy it..😁

  • I'm also waiting for it to launch in malaysia but it won't be soon , realme malaysia will launch the realme 5 & 5 Pro on oct , they will at least promo the phone for at least 1 month so by then will be around end of November so the soonest will be on December as same with india , if not then need to wait next year . oppo K5 that will launch on 10 oct at china have the same spec but don't know malaysia will launch it or not , I'm waiting one of those two to come malaysia .

  • AliExpress tells that no FM Radio in X2.Why so?

  • You buy this wait 1 week and go unofficial shop like:rio international,gadet n gadet,sumash tech, jack and life style.

  • Please launch in Bangladesh...

  • I want to this phone

  • Ok, this phone is awesome. There were compromises made but these were insignificant enough to be worth it. I don't care about NFC but IR port would've been awesome. Another important thing would be to get rid of notch completely and make the phone just a few cm less tall. Maybe it's just wishful thinking but removable battery would be more important to users than making the phone few mm slimmer. It's certain that NOBODY cares about phone's thickness. Also custom ROM options are very appreciated but I think this one is going to be as iconic as the OnePlus One (released in 2014 mind you) which has stable, not to mention official, daily updated LineageOS pie build. Huge props for dedicated SD card slot as well. This phone is actually worth a damn, unlike Oneplus 7T or Note10 or whichever. These phones are missing crucial features, this one's not and it's actually better just for these reasons. Again, this phone is HYPE

  • When will be shipping to Indonesia..? I hope not much longer please… Pearl Blue colour is nice.

  • I want it too. Please release in Malaysia.

  • please launch in malaysia market

  • nfc available, worth it. Btw don't buy realme x or xt, it just like galaxy a50 without nfc

  • Plz lounch in my country pakistan its very good phone i wanna buy this phone

  • hope they release 8/128 for 230€ white in germany or eu soon, would buy it :)

  • Guys in GSMArena, what's the best buy between this and the CC9 considering the specs and the ROMs?

  • Realme should learn to make small phones also. The only thing they know is creating big hand phones . If Realme x2 was smaller than 72 mm, it could be a great option for me.

  • No it is Chinese.

  • Global version

  • It's global or Chinese rom?????

  • Most people put in a back cover and that at least more than level that.

  • There are other phones with ois but if course not in this price brackets.

  • It is down to personal choice. I prefer water drop which is lighter, more reliable, and more convenient facial unlock. I have redmi k20pro and I still bought this x2 to replace the redmi as my main phone for those reasons. Of course other reasons are the more superior (in my opinion) camera management's.

  • thanks for the tip

  • if this company will start producing phones with ois and improve production and distribution channels faster will be the king of android

  • Why glass back when no wireless charging. Steel frame and back would be nice, maybe with removable battery :D Yes, I'm an old school ;)

  • 265$ 245E

  • What Are You Expectin In 265$ Iphone 11 Pro Max Or Note 10 5g.

  • If ever there is a perfect phone, this is the nearest one for me. The only other things I want are decent wide and tele lenses, and ois . But at this price, need I want more?

  • realme x design was much much better wwith popup.

  • Too big camera bump(4mm)..ruins all beauty.

  • No 256GB version on this model too? Y tho? Was hoping there'd be a 256GB version. Disappointed.

  • Nice

  • Pop ups are stupid and non sense

  • realme wnt to compete wth other brnd in spec n price thts vry good..mntain the spec but add IR blaster..must give best spec in lower price than other like xiaomi.. realme should mke fon spec SD855/855+ & gaming spec like rog 2 & blckshrk..give 5000mah -6000mah vooc 4.0 must be good. give lower price or sme price like xiaomi..Mke 2 selfie cmra like vivo for selfie wide angle cmra..8mp/12mp wide & telephoto is good enough..i juz give an idea sincere from fans

  • I prefer waterdrop

  • Notches have become old model to me. Bring pop up configuration same as realme X

  • I can guess the base would be 17,999

  • Seems to be a Game Changer ok no Mid Range Smartphone. Loaded with lot of features.

  • Mediatek? I don't think so mate

  • The specs haven't been announced yet. These are just rumoured based on older models. Everything will be revealed on 23rd September. That's on Monday.

  • Realme Always Made Midrange. So, It's Also Going To Be A One.

  • This Specification Look Prety Intresting. But Note 8 Pro's Helio G90t Is Better. Its Even Got 25X Zoom. Gaming Turbo Mode And Many More.

  • What will be the price? Is it mid ranger or....?
