Realme may have slowed its plans of developing custom software for its smartphones, but at least the company has been providing constant ColorOS updates for its smartphones. Just recently, the company has brought updates for the Realme X and Realme 3 Pro with October 2019 security patch and System-Wide Dark Mode. Now, the company is giving a similar treatment to the older Realme 2 Pro and the recently released Realme 5.
According to the company’s official software update portal, it has now rolled out ColorOS 6.0.1 (RMX1911EX_11_A.18) for the Realme 5 and ColorOS 6.0 (RMS1801EX_11_C.25) for the Realme 2 Pro. The ColorOS 6.0.1 release brings wide-angle lens video recording for the handset as well as the highly-anticipated Dark Mode. Moreover, it brings several improvements to the low-light captures. You can see the complete changelog below:
