Oppo spin-off brand Realme launched the Realme XT phone in India on Friday at a starting price of Rs 15,999. The Realme XT is a lower mid-tier phone which packs a Super AMOLED screen with an in-display fingerprint scanner, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 712 processor paired with up to 8GB RAM, and 20W VOOC 3.0 fast charging. It’s main USP though is its 64MP quad camera setup – the Realme XT is the first smartphone in India with a 64MP camera. 

The Realme XT is not a successor to the Realme X though. Neither has it been designed to replace the Realme 5 Pro. Realme says the Realme XT marks the beginning of an all-new smartphone series in India. 

Here’s a closer look at the Realme XT 64MP camera phone in pics.
