Realme Pad won't be getting Android 12

12 January 2022
Security and performance updates are still on the menu, though.

No wonder why Samsung tablets remain popular.

    It’s realme, what do you expect? The same with Oppo and Vivo. They all been like this, so it’s a wonder why people still buy their stuff.

      OS updates require money and if you sell low then goodbye long term support. What you pay, you get.

        Pumpino, 12 Jan 2022No, it doesn't. My iPlay 40 remains on Android 10 with... moreNo longer with Samsung... Android is starting to become like the infamous Lollipop / Marshmallow era all over again.
        Maybe Apple is now an option.

          Is Realme getting Nokia Syndrome?

            Anders, 12 Jan 2022This is pathetic. Even Alldocube give at least one OS updateNo, it doesn't. My iPlay 40 remains on Android 10 with the November 2020 (yes, 2020) security patch. Alldocube is much worse than Realme. These Chinese brands only care about churning out hardware. The hardware is good, and they save money by not updating the software, but I believe it reduces the value of the product. Xiaomi is heading in the same direction now. I'll be focusing on midrange Samsung products that are still decent but also have excellent software support.

              You get what you paid for. It's always 100% right when apply to made in China products. You need to add oil, glue, missing screws, bad soldered joints etc then it'll last a little bit longer haha

                  That's why it's better to pay more and get proper support.... Ofc everyone talking that apple and Samsung flagship are 2x more expensive then other Chinese ones but look just before new samsung flagship model (s22) 3 ex flagship phones (s10, s20 and s21) already have android 12... Just to remind s10 had relase date similar to xiomi mi 9 look when siomi stopped supporting their "flagship"....

                      Nice

                        I keep buying ipads from Apple, android tablets are expensive crap

                          MEANWHILE.......... Apple Ipad air 2 will turn 8 years in 2022.. It still receives the very same update as 2021 Ipad air pro M1.. Same Day.. Same Time.. don't misunderstand.. I hate 99% apple products due to their over pricing in my country.. but Ipad is the king of value for money.. You can literally get ipad pro m1 for 65K.. and this thing is twice as powerful as iphone 13 pro max which costs 130K.. and that 13 pro max has a chip which in itself is faster than any chip android world has to give... now forget smartphone chips.. That M1 is nearly as powerful as Ryzen 3300X sitting inside my dekstop PC with coolermaster CPU cooler which itself weighs twice the ipad.

                              Should be sued by the buyers.

                                They have started rolling Android 12 to Nokia X10 and X20. So I feel that they will be giving the major updates as promised.

                                  Anders, 12 Jan 2022This is pathetic. Even Alldocube give at least one OS updateMost android oem's, instead of providing updates, will prefer to put out a new device instead of updating the old. That's why Apple is king, it provides guaranteed updates for a minimum of 5 years. Not even the Google Pixel, with its own OS can match that. This is the price consumers pay for buying cheap devices from these android oem's.

                                      dbjungle, 12 Jan 2022All those people saying the G80 was fine at launch. 😂😂😂Hahaha they are ashamed now.

                                        Had the confusion whether to buy the Realme Pad or Nokia T20.
                                        I guess, I would buy Nokia.
