This month, Realme is expected to launch the Realme 12 Pro series of smartphones in various markets. Today, the key specifications of the Realme 12 Pro and 12 Pro+ have been published in the TENAA certification platform database. Although the lists contain important information, it is worth noting that chipset names are usually not disclosed in TENAA certificates.
