This smartphone is equipped with the Latest Snapdragon 865 processor based on 7nm process and Kryo 585 series with powerful Adreno 650 GPU and LPDDR5 upto 12GB RAM.


For more smoother experience, on top of that  UFS 3.1 Flash storage is provided which is the latest available in the market. With all of the powerful components the phone scores highest in AnTuTu benchmarks of 610576 as per the brand says, but in real life test it came out to be 586780 which is less than the Realme X50 Pro 5G.

In addition to that, Carbon Fiber Vapor Cooling system for liquid cooling is setup for CPU cooling, and Multi-Turbo mode which boosts the network acceleration along with that AI tracks the user's performance and optimizes the app and cooling system, according to the pattern.
