Realme has launched its latest smartphone, the realme 12+ 5G, in Malaysia ahead of its Indian release next week. Here’s a detailed look at the phone’s key features:
Display and Performance:
- The phone boasts a large 6.7-inch FHD+ AMOLED display with a smooth 120Hz refresh rate for a visually immersive experience.
- Under the hood, it packs the MediaTek Dimensity 7050 SoC, similar in specs to the Dimensity 1080, paired with a generous 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage.
Camera System:
- The realme 12+ 5G features a triple-camera setup on the back, headlined by a 50MP primary sensor with Sony’s LYT-600 technology. This sensor offers 2x in-sensor zoom and optical image stabilization (OIS) for sharper and clearer photos.
- Accompanying the main sensor are an 8MP ultra-wide camera for capturing wider scenes and a 2MP macro camera for close-up shots. On the frontside, a 16 Mega Pixel shooter handles selfies and video calls.
Design and Functionality:
- The phone boasts a unique design inspired by luxury watches, featuring a vegan leather back with a metallic strap texture. It also carries an IP54 rating for dust and water resistance.
- An interesting feature is realme’s “Rainwater Smart Touch” technology. This technology uses algorithms to distinguish between water droplets and finger touches on the screen, preventing accidental inputs and improving touch accuracy during rain or other wet situations.
Battery and Other Specs:
- The realme 12+ 5G is equipped with a long-lasting 5000mAh battery and supports 67W fast charging for quick power top-ups.
- Other notable features include an in-display fingerprint sensor, stereo speakers, and support for the latest Android 14 with realme UI 5 on top.
Pricing and Availability:
The realme 12+ 5G comes in two color options: Pioneer Green and Navigator Beige.
In Malaysia, the phone is priced at RM1,499 (approximately USD 315 or Rs. 26,090) for the sole 12GB RAM + 256GB storage variant and is already available for purchase.
With its powerful processor, impressive camera system, unique design elements, and innovative water touch technology, the realme 12+ 5G appears to be a compelling option in the mid-range 5G smartphone segment.
