Realme 2 Pro SoC

In the previous Realme 2 Pro story, we said that the Realme 2 Pro would be running on the MediaTek Helio P60 SoC. However, now the CEO of the company has officially confirmed that the Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 AI SoC will power the Realme 2 Pro. He also confirmed that the Realme 2 Pro would be available in multiple storages and RAM options priced between Rs 10,000 to Rs 20,000.

As of now, the Snapdragon 660 AI SoC is seen on the devices like Xiaomi Mi A2, Nokia 7 Plus, and the Vivo V1 Pro. Do note that, all three smartphones cost more than Rs 17,000 or more.

Additional features

The Realme 2 Pro will have a dual camera setup on the back and a single camera on the front. The device will also offer a rear-facing fingerprint sensor, which was missing on the Realme 1. As of now, there is no information on the battery capacity or the availability of the USB type C port. Albeit, the device will feature a 3.5 mm headphone jack.

Madhav Seth did confirm that the Realme 2 Pro will offer a custom version of ColorOS based on Android 8.1 Oreo and the device will be updated to Android 9 Pie. All in all, the Realme 2 Pro happens to be a nice upgrade, and now we know for sure that the Realme 2 Pro is not a rebranded version of the Oppo a7x. Considering the pricing strategy from the brand, the Realme 2 Pro could be the most affordable smartphone to launch in India with the Snapdragon 660 AI SoC.
