Realme is soon expected to introduce the Realme 8, acting as a successor to the Realme 7 launched in September 2020. Rumors and speculations have started building around the phone as it has recently been spotted on Geekbench, giving us an inkling that it might launch soon.
Realme 8 to launch soon
A Realme smartphone with the model number, ‘RMX3092,’ has recently been spotted on Geekbench by tipster Mukul Sharma and Abhishek Yadav. It is believed that the phone is the upcoming Realme 8 and the Geekbench listing hints at some of the specs it might get.
As per the listing, the Realme 8 is expected to be powered by an octa-core MediaTek Dimensity 720 processor and come with up to 8GB of RAM. It is most likely to run Android 10, which is surprising since Android 11 has been released and at least the new phones should come with the new operating system.
It is most likely to get 65W fast charging support. The listing also throws light on a single-core of 2,874 and a multi-core score of 8,088.
Given the processor, this is unlikely to belong to the X60 series and is most likely to belong to the Realme 8 series, thereby hinting at the arrival of 5G in the Realme number series.#Realme https://t.co/cK3Ii79zNl
