Adding more to the leak, the same tipster also repeated a few hardware-related details about the handset that have already been mentioned in different reports.
The phone is expected to feature noticeable bezels around the display and use an LCD panel. Under the hood, it could run on the MediaTek Dimensity 6300 chipset and is expected to boot Android 16 out of the box. The device is also tipped to house a large 8,000mAh battery.
Earlier in the day, Realme officially disclosed more information about the Realme 16T 5G’s camera setup, display technology, battery features and durability standards through promotional teasers and its microsite.
The company confirmed that the smartphone will feature a 50-megapixel Sony IMX852 main camera with autofocus support and an f/1.8 aperture. The sensor will work alongside Realme’s LumaColor IMAGE Engine, which is designed to improve colour accuracy, textures, skin tones, and dynamic range using AI-driven processing.
Realme also stated that the handset will support RAW HDR imaging and customised white balance tuning. Another confirmed feature is AI Portrait Glow, which is designed to automatically optimise facial lighting in challenging lighting conditions such as low light or strong backlight. Users will also get multiple portrait lighting styles including Flash, Rim Light, Natural Light, and Studio Light.
The Realme 16T 5G will additionally offer a rear Selfie Mirror feature that lets users frame selfies using the primary rear camera. The smartphone is also expected to support AI Popout Collage that creates layered effects by placing subjects outside the image frame.
