Realme 15 series mobile specs and launch timeline out: What we can expect
Realme is gearing up to introduce its new smartphone lineup, the Realme 15 series, which is expected to launch in July 2025. Although the company has not officially confirmed the details, leaks and certification documents have revealed some key insights about the upcoming models and their specifications. Let's have a closer look at what's coming. The Realme 15 series is expected to comprise multiple variants, including the Realme 15, 15 Pro and 15 Lite. However, they may not be launched simultaneously, with several sources indicating a launch date of July 2025. According to tipster Abhishek Yadav, the rollout could start with one or two models first, followed by the release of additional versions. This approach aligns with Realme's previous strategy, as seen with the Realme 14 series earlier this year. The company launched the 14 Pro 5G and 14 Pro Plus 5G in January in India, while the 14 Pro Lite appeared later in March. Notably, the standard Realme 14 5G was available only in select global markets and did not reach India.

The phone may be offered in three colours: Dark Purple, Speed Green, and Victory Gold. Although details about the chipset remain unclear, the Lite version is expected to be the most affordable model, with a price tag likely to be below Rs. 15,000.

It may be available in four variants, ranging from 8GB RAM with 128GB storage to 12GB RAM with 512GB storage. The device is likely to come in three colour options: Flowing Silver, Silk Purple, and Velvet Green. This model may target the mid-range segment, similar to the Realme 14 Pro Plus.

It is expected to come packed with a Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 processor, a 6,300mAh battery with 45W fast charging support, a 120Hz flat AMOLED display, and a triple rear camera setup with a 50MP main sensor, along with a 32MP front camera.

Realme Buds Air 7 Pro review: Feature-packed wireless earphones on budget
Realme Buds Air 7 Pro review The Realme Buds Air 7 Pro are the latest entrants in India's wireless earphones segment, bringing premium features at an accessible price. Priced at Rs 5,499, these earbuds offer active noise cancellation (ANC), 3D spatial audio, 45ms low latency, support for the LHDC codec for Hi-Res wireless audio, and multi-point connectivity. With such features, the Buds Air 7 Pro promises strong value—but does it deliver? Design and fit The Realme Buds Air 7 Pro comes in a clean, minimalist package, including extra silicone tips for better fit. Though made of plastic, the charging case has a leather-like finish that resists fingerprints. Compact and pocketable, the case has a silver metallic band around its edge, the Realme logo in the centre, and a USB-C port for charging. An LED indicator near the lid shows battery and pairing status. Opening the case reveals a glossy interior with firmly seated earbuds held by magnets. The hinge is sturdy and closes with a satisfying snap. The in-ear buds have a stem-style design, combining a glossy touch surface with a silver accent. They offer a snug, lightweight fit, staying comfortable over long use and stable during movement. However, the touch controls are not very intuitive—basic functions like play/pause and call handling work well, but stem-based gestures can feel imprecise. Connectivity and pairing Powered by Bluetooth 5.4, the earbuds support the LHDC codec for high-resolution audio on compatible devices. Pairing is seamless with Realme smartphones, where they auto-connect upon opening the case. On other devices, like iPhones, pairing takes slightly longer and requires a manual button press to enter pairing mode. Android users benefit from Google Fast Pair, and the earbuds support multi-point connectivity across Android and iOS devices. Audio and features The Buds Air 7 Pro delivers clear and balanced audio across content types. When used with compatible devices, features like 3D Spatial Audio add depth, particularly for videos. These can be adjusted through the Realme Link app, which offers settings for EQ, Golden Sound tuning, and gesture controls. Golden Sound This feature analyses your hearing through an in-app test and creates a personalised sound profile. It improves clarity across various genres. Spatial Sound Spatial Sound adds dimension to the audio, making a notable difference with supported content. EQ mode The app offers EQ presets such as Serenade, Original Sound, Clear Bass and Deep Bass, along with the option to create custom profiles—even multiple profiles for different users. Camera and playback features A handy feature is the ability to use the earbuds as a remote shutter for the phone's camera via double tap. Another convenience is auto play/pause, which works reliably when inserting or removing the earbuds. Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) Realme claims up to 53dB of noise reduction. In use, the ANC is effective at cutting out ambient sounds like chatter, fan noise and street traffic. The improvement with ANC on is noticeable, making for a more immersive experience. That said, toggling ANC felt abrupt—the transition could be smoother. ANC modes can be controlled through the earbuds or the app, with four levels: Smart, Max, Moderate and Mild. Smart mode adjusts automatically and works well in shifting environments. Calling Call quality is solid, thanks to a six-microphone array and AI noise reduction. Voice clarity is good, even in noisy environments, and Bluetooth range is excellent. Calls were consistently clear with no dropouts. Battery life Battery performance is strong. Over two weeks of regular use—including long listening sessions and calls—the earbuds required just two short charges. This makes them highly dependable for daily use. Verdict The Realme Buds Air 7 Pro offers a well-rounded experience at an affordable price. It delivers quality sound, solid ANC, spatial audio, and long battery life. Touch controls could be more intuitive, and ANC transitions smoother, but these are minor drawbacks in an otherwise feature-rich package. The Buds Air 7 Pro stands out in its segment with a premium design, clear call quality, and reliable performance—making it a top contender for anyone seeking budget wireless earbuds with advanced features.
