Realme 5 Pro and Realme X start getting Android 10 with Realme UI
Realme, a BBK Electronics-owned brand, separated from OPPO in July 2018 as it started operating as an independent brand. However, the company still used OPPO’s ColorOS custom user interface based on Android for all of its phones. In 2019, it first stated that it would develop a new “RealmeOS,” but the plans for the same were shelved in November 2019. Realme shifted gears to developing a lightly customized variant of OPPO’s Android 10-based ColorOS 7, which it called Realme UI. In January, it rolled out the stable Android 10 update with Realme UI to the Realme 3 Pro and the Realme XT. It also opened beta programs for rolling out the update to the Realme X2 and the Realme X2 Pro, while clarifying that the Realme 1, Realme C1, and Realme 2 would not get the update. Now, it has rolled out the stable Android 10-based Realme UI update to the Realme 5 Pro (review) and the Realme X (review).
The Realme 5 Pro and the Realme X are the third and fourth phones by the brand to get the Android 10-based Realme UI update. Realme UI itself is very similar to OPPO’s ColorOS 7 (review) in terms of design and functionality. The only difference that Realme made to the user interface was to use rounded icons in the home screen launcher instead of the square icons that OPPO uses in ColorOS 7. The underlying functionality of both user interfaces is the same. ColorOS 7 itself brought the user interface closer to stock Android.
Realme notes that the official roll-out for both the Realme 5 Pro and the Realme X will have a staged roll-out, as expected. The update will be randomly pushed out to a limited number of users today, and will have a broader roll-out in a few days after the company makes sure there are no critical bugs. If everything is fine, the roll-out will be completed in the coming days. The manual download links haven’t been updated on Realme’s website yet.
The Realme UI update brings Android 10 to both the Realme 5 Pro and the Realme X. The new user interface is called “Real Design” by Realme. It comes with an optimized Smart Sidebar feature, two new features for Assistive Ball users (pie gestures), bubbles, optimized three-finger screenshot, Focus Mode, new wallpapers and live wallpapers, and more.
