Realme X50 which is all set to go official in China on January 7 will come with a side-mounted fingerprint scanner, confirmed the official renders. We are not sure why Realme is going with a side-mounted scanner and not an in-display scanner. But this could mean the Realme X50 will likely have an IPS LCD screen similar to the Redmi K30 and it may offer higher refresh rate. The Realme X50 will be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 765G chipset and it will be amongst the cheapest 5G phones to come next year. Realme officially released the renders of Polar White colour variant of the Realme X50 and it looks pleasing to the eyes. That said, the back panel design of Realme X50 resembles the 2019 Realme phones like Realme XT, Realme X2 and the Realme X2 Pro.

Realme X50 to Compete With Redmi K30 in Every Aspect
With the Realme X50, the Oppo spin-off brand will take on the Redmi K30 in almost every aspect. Firstly, let’s talk about the things which are confirmed officially. The Realme X50 will have a dual punch-hole screen pretty much similar to the Redmi K30 and it will be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 765G chipset. The upcoming Realme smartphone will offer advanced liquid cooling technology to offer a smooth gaming experience.
Going by the latest renders, the Realme X50 will come with a fingerprint scanner located on the right side. The handset will be available in a good-looking Polar White colour option. And yes, there will be quad-camera setup on the rear side, and the camera module arrangement is similar to older Realme phones. The addition of side-mounted fingerprint scanner means the Realme X50 may lack an OLED screen like the recently launched ones like Realme X2 Pro and so on. The phone is also rumoured to come with a higher refresh rate screen, but there is no official confirmation for now.
