Realme 2 specifications

The dual-SIM (Nano) Realme 2 runs ColorOS 5.1 on top of Android 8.1 Oreo out-of-the-box, and sports a 6.2-inch HD+ (720x1520 pixels) in-cell panel with a 19:9 aspect ratio, screen-to-body ratio of 88.8 percent, and maximum brightness of 360 nits. The handset is powered by an octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 450 SoC, coupled with an Adreno 506 GPU, 3GB/ 4GB RAM, and 32GB/ 64GB of onboard storage. Storage will be expandable via microSD card (up to 256GB).

Realme 2 has been launched in India on Tuesday, at an event in New Delhi.To recall, Realme was launched earlier this year as an Oppo sub-brand, and it recently separated to form an independent brand in the Indian market. Successor to the Realme 1, the Realme 2 comes with features such as face unlock, a 4,230mAh battery, dual 4G VoLTE support, and up to 4GB of RAM. However, it does not feel like a true successor to the Realme 1 considering RAM capacity is capped at 4GB compared to 6GB, and the fact that it is powered by a Snapdragon 450 SoC. But it does sport a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor, which was missing on its predecessor. Let's get into the Realme 2 price in India and availability details as well as the specifications of the smartphone. At the event, the company said it has another surprise for customers in September, with the slide on the stage behind clearly tipping it would be the Realme 2 Pro.
