Chinese manufacturer, Realme, has announced that from next year, the company will only release 5G smartphones in China. According to Realme’s CEO, the company will have 5G phones in all segments. This means that it will have 5G devices from the entry-level segment to flagships. As of now, most 5G smartphones are flagships.
Realme’s CEO said “Last week, we officially announced the first 5G mobile phone of Realme – the Realme X 50, and today I want to share another important information with you. From 2020, we will fully cut into 5G in the Chinese market, and no longer launch 4G mobile products!… I once said that 2020 must be the 5G outbreak year, and now, we are fully prepared to officially enter the 5G track”.
