Going by the design and confirmed specs, the Realme 8 5G appears to be a rebadged V13 5G that’s currently available in China. And if it’s really a rebranded V13 5G, then you can expect it to come with Android 11-based Realme UI 2.0, FullHD+ LCD, 18W charging, 8MP selfie shooter, and two 2MP cameras (depth and macro) on the back accompanying the 48MP primary unit.
