The 12 Pro+ will additionally offer a 3x optical zoom with a periscope lens, while the 12 Pro will have a 2x optical zoom telephoto camera. For selfies, the Pro model is expected to come with a 16MP camera, while the Pro Plus model will have a 32MP sensor.
In terms of performance, the Realme 12 Pro is likely to be powered by the Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 chip, while the 12 Pro+ is expected to run on the Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 chipset. Both devices will feature a 5,000mAh battery with 67W fast charging support.
Furthermore, the Realme 12 Pro duo is rumored to sport a 6.7-inch curved-edge AMOLED display with FHD+ resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. Both devices are expected to run on Realme UI 5-based Android 14 and include an in-screen fingerprint sensor for added security.
