Realme's game-changing approach has proven to be quite effective in the competitive smartphone race in India. With a series of aggressively-priced smartphones, Realme has made a name for itself and the upcoming launch of Realme X is everything people have been talking about these past few weeks. The wait is finally over.

Realme India CEO Madhav Sheth has confirmed the Realme X launch date in India. After much anticipation, the new flagship is going to be launched on July 15. Sheth also tweeted a photo of the Realme X inside a special box to confirm that the company will launch Realme X Spiderman Edition, which is not a total surprise if you've been following Sheth's tweets in the last few days.

The confirmation of Realme X launch date in India comes shortly after Sheth confirmed the phone's pricing. In a previous tweet from May 18, Sheth had confirmed that Realme X would be different from the Chinese version in terms of specs and that it would be priced around Rs 18,000. In addition, the CEO said that there will be a special variant besides garlic and onion finish.

Realme X features a 6.53-inch Full HD+ AMOLED display with a pop-up selfie camera to offer truly full-screen experience. The handset is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 710 processor, up to 8GB RAM and 128GB storage, and 3,765mAh battery with VOOC fast charging support.
