As mentioned, he also confirmed that a future Redmi phone will bring back the classic Diamond Red colour finish seen on the Realme 1 phone. Furthermore, answering a user's query on if the company will launch a triple camera phone, Sheth said, “Be it your 48 MP Camera, 64 MP camera, triple camera or quad camera, Realme stands as a challenger and a dare to leap brand. We will always bring surprises one by one, out of our yellow boxes for sure. I can't tell you the exact specs of our next products but what I can guarantee you is, the best camera experience in the smartphone is on your way.”

For now, the company is looking to launch the Realme X in India very soon. The company made it available in China first, and is now teasing it to launch in India as well.
