The Realme 12x 5G was officially launched in India today, per schedule. The 12x is essentially a Realme 12 for less money. In fact logic dictates that the 12x is even better considering that it has virtually the same display and hardware from processor to battery and fast charging. It even a the 12’s “dynamic button” and the Narzo 70 Pro’s “air gestures.” The Realme 12x starts at Rs 11,999 for a version with 4GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. You can also get it with 6GB and 8GB of RAM (and same 128GB storage) for Rs 13,499 and Rs 14,999.
Realme 12x 5G: Specs, features
The Realme 12x has a 6.72-inch 1080p display with a 120Hz refresh rate and up to 950 nits of peak brightness. Realme doesn’t specify the panel type, so presumably it’s an LCD like the Realme 12. Screen protection isn’t known either. Rainwater smart touch is available, and so is an official IP54 rating.
