The Realme XT is one of the company’s most solid offerings for the upper-midrange segment. The handset boasts Snapdragon 712 SoC, 6.4-inch FHD+ AMOLED Display, 64MP camera and 4,000mAh battery with VOOC FlashCharge 3.0 support. The handset originally launched with ColorOS 6.0 which is based on Android 9 Pie. Since the release, the company has been promising an update for the handset that would arrive in the form of Realme UI. Today, the promise is being fulfilled and the Android 10 based update is reaching the smartphone.
Today the Chinese firm is rolling out Realme UI 1.0 for the handset. It’s the first iteration of Realme’s Own software, which is based on Android 10 and ColorOS 7. Instead of just rolling out the same ColorOS update that we see on Oppo smartphones, Realme decided to bring a different branch of the firmware that gets some inspiration from vanilla Android.
