Realme has been one of the most outstanding OEMs when it comes to rolling out updates to its devices. The company strives to push out regular and timely updates, be they monthly security patches or feature updates.

Keeping with the same pace, Realme is rolling out the latest Android security patch update to a few of its devices. First up is the Realme X.

Perhaps one of the more notable changes that come with this update is the introduction of a decimal point display to the charging animation. This only goes to showcase the fast-charging ability of this device. A nice touch I must say.
