Realme revealed the presence of Snapdragon 765G SoC in Realme X50 5G via a Weibo post on Tuesday. The company's Weibo post didn't include any other new information about the phone, however a Realme executive in another Weibo post added that the phone won't be offered in a 4G-only version.

All the telecom operators offering 5G in China currently use these bands or use them in the future, the executive added.

Realme X50's specifications remain a mystery for now as a previous leak that claimed to offer the specifications of the phone is now in question after the processor revelation by Realme. We do know that the phone will feature a hole-punch design with two selfie cameras.

The company is yet to announce a launch date for the smartphone as well, however with the increasing number of teasers coming from the company, the an official date announcement shouldn't be very far.
