In recent years we have witnessed the somewhat curious phenomenon of the birth of sub-brands. This thing is symptomatic of how much bigger brands we need too market a pinch "lower" and in fact, they immediately dedicated themselves to the creation of smartphones with decidedly affordable prices. Compared to the parent company these devices mainly differ in one slightly less cared for construction (but not much) and a mid-range hardware, although sometimes it leads to high end. Realme is between them and in 2019 has released two devices that have been very successful, namely the Realme 3 Pro and Realme x that today begin to update with the Dark Mode and the October security patches.
Realme 3 Pro and Realme X update with Dark Mode
Sometimes swell the devices are equipped with noteworthy hardware, they lack in terms of software. Realme relies on OPPO's ColorOS and has officially shelved plans to develop its own Android skin. However, the company has done an excellent job of providing software updates for its devices and has recently started implementing a major update for Realme 3 Pro e Realme x which brings bug fixes and the much loved one Dark Mode.
Along with the security patches of the month and the dark mode, there are a couple of specific optimizations and improvements. The updates are called respectively RMX1901EX_11.A.09 for Realme X and RMX1851EX_11_A.20 for Realme 3 Pro. A peculiarity of this company is that each update is implemented gradually, which means that only a small amount of users will receive it during the initial launch. Once the company confirms that there are no major bugs, the update will be sent to the remaining users, thus allowing the upgrade for all remaining smartphones. This small detail is very important because it shows how much the brand is attentive to its products but above all to its users, always guaranteeing maximum safety and protection from various problems.
A recent event demonstrates what has been said: da poco, official announcement of Realme revealed that that the company discovered a critical bug in the Realme X update in question. Therefore, the update has been temporarily postponed in order to correct and file what were the critical issues and then reinsert it as an official update.
