Realme Book Slim Will Feature 11th-Gen Intel Core i5 CPU, Company Confirms

Realme India has announced that its upcoming Realme Book Slim laptop will feature an 11th-Gen Intel Core i5 CPU ahead of the official India launch on August 18. The company has set up a dedicated micro-site that also offers a host of other information. The website reveals that the notebook will sport a display with 2K resolution, 90 percent screen-to-body ratio, and 100 percent colour gamut. Last week, Realme claimed the its first laptop features an aluminium alloy body design and measure 14.9mm in thickness. From the promotional posters available on the website, the Realme Book Slim looks similar to Apple’s MacBook laptops. There will be at least two colour options (Silver and Blue) with connectivity options such as a USB Type-C port with Thunderbolt 4 support, two USB Type-A ports, and a standard headphones jack. 

The Realme Book Slim will launch in India on August 18 with Realme GT 5G and Realme GT Master Edition. On the same day, Realme will launch Realme Book in China. It appears that both Realme Book Slim and Realme Book are the same products but with different monikers for the two markets. However, since the company has not shared any concrete details, readers must take the information with a pinch of salt. Either way, the occasion will mark the debut of Realme’s first laptop that would compete against legacy brands like Acer, Asus, HP, and Lenovo. Notably, the Realme Book and Realme Book Slim will also rival laptops from other smartphone makers like Xiaomi, Samsung, and Huawei (only in China).
