Realme is testing two processors, the winner will be in the next Realme Neo 8
A Digital Chat Station informant posted an interesting piece of information on Weibo. According to the leak, Realme is testing engineering samples of the same smartphone, but with different processors - Dimensity 9500e and Snapdragon 8 Gen 5. The chip that will emerge from this Colosseum as the winner will be used in a smartphone with a 1.5K LTPS display and a battery of at least 8000 mAh. Given that the device is at an early stage of development and is unlikely to be ready in autumn, we can assume that it will be released in winter. In December last year, the Realme Neo 7 was released, so we can assume that this is the new Realme Neo 8. The leak also reports on an ultrasonic fingerprint scanner under the screen, but that's about it.
