Realme 6i release date is set for March 17. Realme has announced the launch of its new smartphone through its Facebook page in Myanmar. The new development comes months after the Realme 6i surfaced on certification sites in Thailand and the US. The smartphone was also recently spotted on benchmark portal Geekbench. The Realme 6i is apparently in the works with model number RMX2040. Considering the historical records of the company, it is expected to be a toned down version of the Realme 6 that was launched in India last week -- alongside the Realme 6 Pro.

Last month, MediaTek launched the Helio G80 as its latest gaming and graphics focussed octa-core SoC with HyperEngine technology. The chip includes two Cortex-A75 cores with a maximum clock speed of 2GHz and six Cortex-A55 cores clocked at 1.8GHz. It also s up to 8GB of LPDDR4X RAM and eMMC5.1 storage.

The Facebook page also Realme 5i. Further, another teaser posted on the social media site shows a quad rear camera setup on the Realme 6i with a 48-megapixel primary sensor.

If we believe the recently spotted listing on the Geekbench site, the Realme 6i will come with Android 10 out-of-the-box. The smartphone appeared on the benchmark portal with model number RMX2040 that was also featured on the US FCC site last month.

The FCC listing of the Realme 6i suggested a 5,000mAh battery. It also mentioned that the phone would measure 164.4x75.4x9.0mm and weigh 195 grams.

Alongside FCC, the Realme 6i apparently received a certification from Thailand's The National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission (NBTC) with the same RMX2040 model number.

Realme hasn't yet announced whether it would bring the Realme 6i to markets other than Myanmar anytime soon. Nevertheless, the fast growth and vast consumer base of the Chinese company in India would convince it to launch the new phone at least in the country shortly after its debut in the Myanmar market.
