The affordable 5G Realme V5 may go global under a different name
Realme launched the V5 as a phone with 6 to 8GB of RAM and quad rear cameras with a 48MP main camera. However, it has only been released in China, starting at 1399 yuan (~US$212), thus far. No, however, there are signs that its OEM is planning to expand its availability soon.
They mainly come in the form of a new certification granted by the Thai mobile telecomms regulator NBTC. It is for a device called the Realme RMX2111: a model number associated with the V5. However, the device is referred to as the 7 5G instead in this document.
This suggests that the V5 is indeed breaking out into other markets, albeit as a new member of the pre-existing 7 series. Furthermore, it seems from the "5G" moniker included in the new NBTC listing, it will still have the same MediaTek Dimensity 720 processor when or if it gets there. It will be interesting to see if it still have the same approximate price-tag on this putative occasion.
