There seems to be a lot going on at Realme. Rumors are circulating and a few leaked listings point to two new smartphones: the Realme Neo 7x 5G and the Realme Neo 7 SE. Let us examine the latest reports about these upcoming devices.

The Realme Neo 7x 5G has appeared on JD.com for pre-order and carries the model number RMX5071. This number is familiar, having surfaced on TENAA recently, suggesting an imminent phone launch. Realme has also hinted at a February launch for the Neo 7 SE in China. The 7x may be included.
Neo 7x 5G: What the Rumors Say
These are the leaked and listed traits of the Realme Neo 7x 5G:
- Display: A 6.67-inch OLED display with 2400 x 1080 resolution.
- Processor: Likely powered by the Snapdragon 6 Gen 4 chipset.
- Memory & Storage: Configurations from 6GB to 16GB RAM and storage up to 1TB.
- Battery: A 6,000mAh battery (normal capacity) with 45W fast charging.
- Cameras: Dual rear camera with a 50MP main sensor and a 2MP secondary lens, plus a 16MP front camera.
- Additional Features: In-display fingerprint scanner, microSD card slot, Realme UI 6 on Android 14.
The Rebranding Theory: Neo 7x = Realme 14 5G?
Intriguingly, another Realme device with model number RMX5070 has been identified as Realme 14 5G. Given the model number proximity to Neo 7x (RMX5071), speculation suggests the Realme 14 5G could be the global version of the Neo 7x. If this is accurate, the Realme 14 5G would also use the Snapdragon 6 Gen 4.
Realme Neo 7 SE: Dimensity Power to Compete Against Redmi
Realme Neo 7 SE Smartphone
Realme is also preparing to release the Realme Neo 7 SE in China this February. They have indicated the pricing for this device, suggesting it will directly compete with the Redmi Turbo 4.
Neo 7 SE: Price Point and Power
Realme has confirmed the Neo 7 SE will be priced under 2,000 Yuan. This places it in direct competition with the Redmi Turbo 4, which starts at 1,999 Yuan and features a Dimensity 8400-Ultra chip. The Neo 7 SE will feature the Dimensity 8400-Max, a similar powerful chipset.
Realme may be aiming to undercut Redmi. A variant of the Neo 7 SE with 8GB RAM could be the most affordable device with a Dimensity 8400 series chip.

Both phones are expected to offer impressive specifications at affordable prices. Official launch and pricing announcements are anticipated in the coming weeks.
