Realme Pad X has been recently launched in India and can soon make its way here in Nepal.
This is the most premium tablet from Realme to date. Previously, the company had some subpar-performing tablets in the market and they were not so much preferred. It was the same case with its smartphones also, but it has changed now; within a year, Realme has launched some of the best smartphones in almost every price range and has recently launched its flagship Realme GT 2 Pro worldwide.
The launch of Realme Pad X indicates that Realme now is ready to step into the tablet market as well. The tablet has a decent display with a comparatively higher resolution. The tablet also has a wide-angle selfie camera. Exciting features like screen mirroring have also been included on the tablet.
