The rest of the specs of the Indian Pad X are the same as its Chinese counterpart, meaning you get the Snapdragon 695 SoC, 10.95" WUXGA+ screen, and an 8,340 mAh battery with 33W wired charging. The cell also supports reverse wired charging, allowing you to use it as a power bank for other devices.

The Realme Pad X runs Realme UI 3.0 for Pad out of the box and is the first Realme tablet to support Multi-Screen Collaboration, which allows smartphone users to cast their phones' screens to the Pad X for copying text and transferring files. This feature is currently only supported by Realme GT 2 Pro, GT Neo 2, GT Neo 3, GT Neo 3T, and GT Master Edition, but Realme has promised to add more devices to the list.

The rest of the Realme Pad X's highlights include a USB-C port, DC Dimming, and quad speakers with Hi-Res Audio and Dolby Atmos support.

The Realme Pad X is offered in Glacier Blue and Glowing Grey colors in India, and Realme told us they don't have any plans to bring the cool-looking green color model to its largest market, so it remains China-exclusive.

The Realme Pencil, on the other hand, is made of polycarbonate and weighs 16.5 grams. It has 4,096-level pressure sensitivity and a 240Hz touch sampling rate.

And when you want to charge it, you can simply attach the Pencil to the Realme Pad X and it will draw power from the tablet through magnetic wireless charging.

Does this have calling facility?

My Realme XT phone still works without a glitch after more than 2.5 years. My Realme watch pro 2 also works without any issues. Why should Realme pad be any different. Don't be prejudiced.
