Realme has revealed important specifications around the display of Realme 2. While the phone will have a 6.2-inch display, it will also sport a notch on top. The posters also show one camera within the notch, to confirm that Realme 2 will sport a single front lens.
Besides, it is also expected that the front camera will support Face Unlock. Given that the display is notched in nature, Realme 2 will probably have a screen aspect ratio in and around 19.5:9. The phone will be a budget device with a starting price under Rs 10,000.

Realme 2 will retain the diamond back pattern that was seen on its predecessor. This design was seen on a glass back on Realme 1, and is expected to return in the same fashion. Qualcomm has confirmed that Realme 2 will run a Snapdragon processsor, though neither company has disclosed the exact SoC in use. This is a shift from the phone’s previous iteration, as Realme 1 runs the MediaTek Helio P60 processor.
