After a few teasers, Realme has finally launched the Realme V15 5G smartphone in its home country. This 5G smartphone stands for its affordable price tag with some extra-ordinary features. However, the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) hinted recently through its certification that this Realme V15 could make its global launch very soon, which means, there are not many days left for the Indian market to welcome this device.
Today, a model number RMX3092 (Realme V15) has been appeared on the BIS certification website and the listing shows that the V15 could be another series after the Realme X7 which will be powered by the Dimensity chipset in the Indian market. Another mysterious Realme smartphone has been popped up on the BIS website with the model number RMX3201 as you can see in the shared screenshot, saying that it runs on Android 10 OS and supported by 10W of charging.
