Realme Mobiles has taken wraps off of its first flagship smartphone, the Realme X2 Pro, in China. And like all the recent flagship phones, this one too is powered by Qualcomm's top-of-the-line Snapdragon 855 Plus chipset, which makes it the most powerful offering by the Oppo spin-off yet.
Alongside, the company also announced the Realme X2 Pro Master Edition, which has been designed by Naoto Fukasawa and features a distinct design inspired by cement mix and red bricks. The back is made from glass and has been further treated to produce a matte finish.
The X2 Pro will be making its way to India sometime in December this year, as stated by CEO Madhav Sheth.
