Meanwhile, an image of the purported retail box of the Realme 12+ was leaked by tipster Ishan Agarwal earlier this week via X (formerly Twitter). The box states that the smartphone will be equipped with MediaTek's Dimensity 7050 chip and will sport an AMOLED screen with a 120Hz refresh rate.

The leaked image of the Realme 12+ 5G retail box also states that the handset will pack a 5,000mAh battery with support for 67W wired charging. It also revealed the smartphone will be equipped with a Sony LYT-600 sensor with OIS — the company has confirmed this detail. The portion of the box with the sticker containing the smartphone's price is blurred.
