Design

The device was recently spotted in the hands of Realme CEO Madhav Sheth, giving us a glimpse at the Realme U1’s design from the back. The Realme U1 has an uncanny resemblance to the Realme 2 Pro’s rear panel, down to the glossy surface finish, placement of the rear-mounted fingerprint sensor as well as the horizontally stacked dual rear-camera set-up. The Realme U1 shown in the picture has a golden tone to it, which is yet to be seen on a Realme smartphone.

Camera

The Realme U1 is being marketed as India’s Selfie Pro, which suggests that the device will pack a capable imaging hardware on the front, letting users capture some high-quality selfies. The company, as well as its CEO, have shared a couple of images clicked using the Realme U1 which look quite vibrant, but we’ll have to wait and put it through our camera test to find out how good it actually is.

There is no information about the resolution of the Realme U1’s cameras, but a tweet from Realme suggests that the device will come with AI beautification feature onboard that will utilize 296 facial recognition points to enhance selfies.

That’s all we know about the Realme U1 at the moment, however, there is no word on the device’s estimated pricing and availability, aside from the fact that it will be an Amazon-exclusive device. The Realme U1’s launch event will kick off at 12:30 PM on November 28 and will also be live-streamed on Facebook, YouTube, Twitter as well as the company’s official website.
