Realme X50 Pro 5G still coming on February 24, only in online event

Realme was set on attending the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona for the first time this year, but as you know that isn't happening. The good news is Realme has found a way around the major disruption and is still announcing the X50 Pro 5G. Much like Sony the company will hold an online event instead.

You can read the full statement of the company below.

Since the outbreak of the novel coronavirus, realme has been concerning about the effects and working on alternatives of all possible situations, including having planned our event undertaken by our European team based in Spain without any staff from China.

Keeping in light with the impact of the virus and the cancellation of MWC 2020, realme has decided to cancel the participation at MWC Barcelona 2020, accordingly. Our first 5G flagship smartphone realme X50 Pro 5G, originally planned to debut at the MWC, is going to be launched online globally in Madrid on February 24th. Our Vice President of realme and Chief Executive Officer of realme India, Mr. Madhav Sheth will join the launch and reveal our future AIoT plans.

Thanks for your understanding and support. We will announce the updated arrangements of realme X50 Pro 5G online launch event soon. Please stay tuned.

The Realme X50 Pro 5G is shaping to be a proper beast, driven by the Snapdragon 865. The phone will pack LPDDR5 RAM (likely 12GB) and UFS 3.0 storage (likely 256GB) as well as Wi-Fi 6 and 5G support.
