Realme is launching its next device, called Realme
U1, and it is going to be the first smartphone with Helio P70 chipset. Up until
now, we knew the selfie camera will be positioned in the waterdrop notch, but
thanks to a photo in the wild, we also know how the back will look.
Unsurprisingly, it will follow the product design
from Realme 2 and will come with a horizontal dual camera setup and a circular
fingerprint scanner. The phone also has a neat Pink panel and hopefully, it
will arrive with other fancy colors.
The person, holding the photo, is the company CEO
Madhav Sheth. He is seen taking selfies after winning awards for Most
Disruptive Brand of the Year and Best Smartphone of the Year (under INR20,000)
with the Realme 2 Pro. The photo comes with a watermark, revealing the Realme
U1 will rely heavily on AI, and it looks like you can set up your own name to
appear on the image.
Realme U1 is aiming to be “India’s Selfie Pro” and
the company claims it will have “the most powerful selfie camera ever”. We are
yet to see what sensor and what AI magic is hiding behind these monikers, we
hope to see the 25 MP snapper that is seen in top-notch Oppo smartphones,
including the Find X.
