The cat is out of the bag. The Realme 12 Pro series 5G is confirmed to launch in India in January and indeed, one of the phones under the line-up, will have a periscope-style telephoto camera. Presumably, it should be the Realme 12 Pro Plus.
Realme has been teasing the “periscope” camera for sometime now, through a dedicated website as well as social media posts. The capability is being billed as the next big step over something like a 200-megapixel camera sensor, found on the Realme 11 Pro Plus. This new upcoming Realme phone will be the first Realme phone in India in four years to have a periscope camera. The last being 2020’s Realme X3 SuperZoom.
Realme global is meanwhile hyping the design of the Realme 12 Pro series 5G. The big takeaway is the return of the company’s “master” edition tie-ups. Realme has confirmed that it is partnering with international luxury watch designer Ollivier Savéo to launch a luxury-watch inspired Realme 12 Pro series 5G series variant. Whether both the Realme 12 Pro Plus and Realme 12 Pro will get it, remains to be seen.
Anyhow, you can expect the said model(s) to have a unique back panel design and some dial imitations for the rounded camera assembly on the back— the latter is confirmed in a teaser video shared by Realme announcing the partnership. Internet is rife with a poster that suggests a Rolex edition for the Realme 12 Pro Plus maybe in the works but we will see.
