Smartphone maker Realme has announced that it will be launching its new phone called “Race” powered by Snapdragon 888. According to the company, the codename “Race” indicates the fast speed and high performance of the upcoming model.
It’s pertinent to note that Realme will be one of the early smartphone manufacturers to apply the latest Qualcomm flagship 5G Mobile platform, Snapdragon 888, which it announced at the Qualcomm Snapdragon Tech Summit 2020.
In his video speech at Tech Summit 2020, Realme’s CEO Sky Li said, “Qualcomm has always been one of Realme’s most important partners. Realme has already started the development of “Race” a few months ago, and will once again deliver a product that will exceed the expectations of users around the world.”
As one of the world’s fastest-growing smartphone brands, Realme has worked closely with Qualcomm since its inception. They have brought forward a number of 4G and 5G smartphones for its users globally.
Realme was one of the first manufacturers to use Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 and 765G mobile platforms in 2020. Realme X50 Pro 5G with Snapdragon 865 and Realme X50 5G with Snapdragon 765G both have enjoyed success in international markets.
“Race” with Snapdragon 888 will be among the first S888-based phones to reach the market. Complete features are yet to be revealed but the phone is rumored to be paired with 12GB RAM and 256GB storage and run Android 11 with Realme UI 2.0 on top.
An image of the phone shows a quad-camera with an ‘Oreo’ style bump but no information on the modules inside yet. There’s also talk if Realme ‘Race’ will feature Realme’s 125W UltraDART charging or if that will debut with another device.
