In terms of optics, the Realme 2 will sport a dual rear camera setup comprising a 13-megapixel primary sensor and a 2-megapixel secondary sensor, along with an LED flash. In comparison, the Realme 1 features a single 13-megapixel primary camera with LED flash. Up front, the Realme 2 may borrow the 8MP selfie snapper from its predecessor.
Realme 2: Under the hood
Both Realme and Qualcomm have tweeted to confirm that the Realme 2 will feature a Snapdragon processor. However, none of them gave any details about the chipset. Now, considering the Realme 1 comes with a MediaTek Helio P60 processor and that the Realme 2 is "a notch above" its predecessor, we can expect the latest Snapdragon 660 processor on the upcoming smartphone.
