Realme is debuting the primary member of the Realme 10 sequence on November 9 and we managed to get an interview with Madhav Sheth – Realme VP and Head of Realme Worldwide masking some key features of the upcoming cellphone.

The interview covers the gross sales efficiency of previous Realme quantity sequence units, the important thing {hardware} options of the Realme 10, software program help and another fascinating matters like shopper preferences for cellphone display sizes and battery endurance.

Have you learnt what number of models have the quantity sequence shipped?

Greater than 50 million models globally in complete between the quantity and quantity Professional sequence.

What are your targets for the Realme 10 sequence?

I am extra of a product man, so I want to give attention to the product. The gross sales numbers are simply an end result of the fitting inputs, I’ve all the time believed.

Sure, however when beginning manufacturing it’s essential to have a sure quantity in thoughts.

Positively – now we have our base figures, however now we have our aspirational figures as properly. The ten sequence are going to be extraordinarily essential for us subsequent yr, however there are a whole lot of elements to think about. Now we have to grasp that the world goes by means of loads proper now and the worldwide provide chain is disrupted so making these predictions is extraordinarily tough. Besides we’re extraordinarily optimistic in regards to the efficiency of the ten sequence.

What have been your major priorities when designing the Realme 10?

An important issues {that a} shopper appears are three – the processor, display, storage and RAM. The digital camera is definitely carefully tied to the processor, as a result of its capabilities will not be simply in regards to the megapixels and the {hardware}, but additionally in regards to the processing. We have centered on all of these key features with MediaTek G99, 90Hz AMOLED, and as much as 16GB dynamic RAM.

Realme 10 chipset and RAM specs

Because you touched on the digital camera – the Realme 10’s major digital camera feels like a downgrade in comparison with the Realme 9, what’s your tackle that?

Certainly now we have a 50MP twin digital camera on the again and a 16MP selfie digital camera. Nevertheless we have put in a whole lot of effort in optimizing the output of the 50MP major digital camera and its efficiency. So we actually really feel the outcomes is not going to be any totally different from what the 108MP digital camera on the Realme 9 did. And this allowed us to ship a better-rounded product with out rising the worth.

What sort of software program help can customers count on once they purchase the realme 10?

Now we have dedicated to delivering two main upgrades for each realme cellphone. On the identical time, we’re carefully monitoring the brand new insurance policies, that are coming to Europe and will push the updates to nearly 5 years. However whereas no remaining selections have been made there but patrons can count on at the very least two main upgrades when getting the Realme 10.

What’s, in your opinion, the optimum battery life for a cellphone? The place do you draw the road when seeking to steadiness cellphone dimension and endurance?

I think about battery life as three separate features. One is the scale of the battery, second is the charging pace and eventually there are the software program optimizations that guarantee the absolute best efficiency. What now we have seen is customers usually count on a 5,000mAh battery with a 33W and above charging help. For Realme 10, we managed to supply 5,000mAh battery with an excellent slim physique, the slimmest Realme ever launched for international.

Folks need their telephones to final 8 hours to 12 hours of even the heaviest multitasking. They’re additionally trying on the time it would take them to recharge the cellphone after depleting its battery. Realme 10 can simply final a complete day even when customers are gaming with it and recharge to 50% in merely 28 minutes; And we attempt our greatest to reduce downtime for charging.

With Apple giving up on the mini can we formally pronounce the compact cellphone useless? Do you see display sizes stabilizing between 6 and seven inches as folks cannot comfortably maintain bigger units?

I can’t touch upon Apple’s technique, as a result of they’ve their very own shoppers and technique. However basically I imagine individuals are trying as a naked minimal at 6-inches and above display on their telephones.

The reason being, once more, heavy customers and multi-tasking – irrespective of if you’re utilizing Navigation, gaming, checking e mail or studying a guide (which is turning into more and more common) you want at the very least a 6.4-6.5″ display to do issues correctly. So I believe 6″ would be the naked minimal going ahead, due to the best way the apps are designed as of late.

Any parting phrases?

What we are attempting to do with the Realme 10 sequence is differentiation at new value level. I’d not say outright innovation, as a result of the issues have already been invented, however what we are attempting to do is convey that innovation at value factors the place folks haven’t been in a position to take pleasure in it earlier than.

The ten sequence this time will convey three leap-forward improvements to our customers: efficiency, show and design. Realme 10 shall be a performance-focused variant and keep tuned for the opposite two fashions
