Realme confirms 5G support for upcoming global flagship in new teaser

Realme is hosting a global launch event at Mobile World Congress (MWC) later this month where it will unveil its first smart TV. More excitingly, the company will announce a new flagship, which will come with 5G support.

This confirmation comes from the company's European branch which posted an image on Twitter with the caption "Hey MWC, it's realme! We are ready to be the 5G Populariser." The image also includes text "New Player realme MWC Debut".

The company hasn't revealed any other details about its upcoming flagship, but it was spotted on AnTuTu last month with the Snapdragon 865 SoC.

This is likely the same smartphone that Realme India CEO Madhav Sheth said will be "bigger and better" than the Realme X50 5G that's currently available in China.

Realme will also announce its first fitness band this month, but it will be unveiled before the smart TV and the Snapdragon 865-powered flagship.
