It has been a busy last one month at Realme with the Chinese smartphone manufacturer launching its first premium smartphone - the Realme X in India - followed by the unveiling of its first ever 64MP camera in the country. Now, the company is set to launch Realme 5 and Realme 5 Pro in India on August 20. The series will act as a successor to the Realme 3 series launched earlier this year. The Realme 5 series launch was confirmed by the company through the media invites rolled out on Monday morning. The smartphones were also teased on Flipkart, confirming that they will go on sale on the e-commerce platform. 

During an event held on August 8, Realme CEO Madhav Sheth had hinted that both Realme 5 and Realme 5 Pro can come with a quad camera setup. And, the same has been confirmed now as the series' tagline reads 'Leap to Quad Camera'. With this, the Realme 5 series smartphones would become the first devices from the company to sport four cameras.
