The world’s fastest-growing smartphone brand, Realme introduced its new Realme 6 series phones viz. Realme 6 and Realme 6 Pro at a digital event in India last week. Both phones come with impressive 90Hz displays and 64MP quad cameras. Realme Myanmar has now announced that Realme 6i, a new member of the series will make its debut next week.
Realme 6i Release Date
Realme has announced the launch of its new smartphone through its Facebook page in Myanmar. The new development comes months after the Realme 6i surfaced on certification sites in Thailand and the US. The smartphone was also recently spotted on the benchmarking portal Geekbench. The Realme 6i is apparently in the works with model number RMX2040.
The official Realme Myanmar page on Facebook revealed the launch date of the Realme 6i in the country by updating its cover photo, as noticed by technology blog IndiaShopps. The cover photo shows that the launch will take place at 3 pm MMT (2 pm IST) on Tuesday, March 17. It also highlights the presence of MediaTek Helio G80 on the new smartphone.
The Realme 6i will rock a MediaTek Helio G80 processor, which is debuting with the phone. The Helio G80 chipset was announced by MediaTek last month and is aimed at affordable gaming smartphones. The chipset houses two Cortex-A75 cores clocked at up to 2GHz and six Cortex-A55 cores that are clocked at 1.8GHz. The Realme 6i will pack up to 8GB of LPDDR4X RAM and eMMC 5.1 storage under the hood. A recent Geekbench listing of the Realme 6i showed that there will be at least 4GB of RAM on the phone.
In addition to MediaTek’s Helio G80 chipset, Realme has also confirmed that the upcoming Realme 6i will feature 48MP quad rear cameras and support 18W fast charging via a USB Type-C port that is touted to deliver 38 percent faster-charging results than the standard 10W charging technology. A US FCC listing, however, also confirmed that that the Realme 6i will pack a 5000mAh battery under the hood.
While the rest of the phone’s tech specs have not been officially confirmed yet, it looks like the Realme 6i could be an impressive upgrade over the Realme 5i. Realme India hasn’t started teasing the launch of the phone yet, but we expect the Realme 6i to be launched in India as well as a few other markets soon after its debut in Myanmar.
