Realme x Android 10 is a staged rollout

The new update brings a host of new features to both the smartphones, however, it should be noted that the new Android 10 update is just a staged rollout by the company and is only being offered to a limited number of Realme X and Realme 5 Pro users in order to ensure stability. After testing for bugs and errors, the update will be pushed to the masses in coming days. Realme is yet to update the manual download links on their official website.

In January, the company brought the Android 10-based Realme UI to the Realme XT in India. The proprietary interface features a few changes over their existing ColorOS custom ROM. Realme calls the new UI ‘Real Design’ and it comes with an optimised Smart Sidebar feature, two new features for Assistive Ball users (pie gestures), bubbles, optimised three-finger screenshot, Focus Mode, new wallpapers and live wallpapers, smoother animation and dark mode, among others. Realme Share now supports sharing files with OPPO, Vivo, and Xiaomi users.
