Realme concluded its MWC event with several announcements. The GT 2 series phones were the stars of the show but we also got the Realme Book Prime laptop and Buds Air 3 wireless earphones. Realme Book Prime was introduced in China last month as the Realme Book Enhanced Edition and features a higher TDP Intel Core i5 CPU while Buds Air 3 are the brand’s latest TWS earphones with active noise cancellation.

There’s only one visual difference between the new Realme Book Prime and the older Realme Book - the new Real Green color of the laptop. The insides feature Intel’s 11th Core i5-11320H processor which has a 35W TDP capable of reaching a single-core turbo frequency of 4.5GHz. The quad-core CPU brings 8 threads and 8MB L3 cache just like before. The graphics are handheld by Intel’s Iris Xe integrated GPU.

Another tweaked aspect comes in the dual-fan cooling system which has a 50% higher heat dissipation rate compared to the regular Realme Book which should also lead to some performance gains. The rest of the spec sheet is identical to the standard Realme Book with a 14.2-inch IPS LCD with a 3:2 aspect ratio and 2160 × 1440 px resolution, a 54Wh battery and USB-C 65W charger.

The 8GB RAM and 512GB storage Realme Book Prime comes out to €999 while the upgraded 16/512GB version will set buyers back €1,099.
