A majority of Realme handsets that are eligible for an update to Realme UI 1.0 based on Android 10 are yet to see the new OS. Perhaps the coronavirus outbreak in China is to blame, but things seem to have normalized over the recent past.
So far, the Realme UI update is available for the Realme 3 Pro, Realme XT, Realme 5 Pro, and Realme X in a stable version. The likes of Realme X2 and Realme X2 Pro have it in beta, with the stable version expected before the end of this month.
With Android R already in the works, we have also shed some light on some of the devices we expect to receive Realme UI 2.0 based on Android 11 when the time comes, probably late this year or early 2021.
But until then, folks using the Chinese variants of the Realme 5 Pro, Realme X, and Realme 3 Pro can enjoy the latest March security update based on Android 10 OS. For the uninitiated, these devices go by the names Realme Q, Realme X, and Realme X Lite back at home, respectively.
The Realme Q update is arriving as version C.03 and besides installing the new security patch, you also get the long-awaited support for swipe gestures from both sides of the screen when going back to the previous page.
Below is the full changelog as provided by the company, although the translation (via Google Translate) from Chinese might be a bit off in some cases:
