realme 12 5G: The latest device under the realme 12 Series is arriving in the PH on April 25
Following the successful launch of the realme 12 Pro+ 5G and realme 12+ 5G, realme Philippines is now set to introduce the newest addition to the realme 12 Series 5G on April 25: the realme 12 5G.
The latest model of the realme Number Series boasts a competitive camera and a stylish design, which is renowned for this series. It also incorporated elements of the luxury watch design introduced in the earlier realme 12 Series 5G models.
This time, the realme 12
5G goes beyond just capturing photos. The device is designed to be a
storyteller, combining its camera quality and overall feature set to enable
users to create and share stories easily. It's an excellent tool for users to
explore new narratives behind the photos they capture.
The realme 12 5G is a versatile device that appeals to individuals with different interests and preferences. Find out why it’s an excellent choice for people who consider their devices an extension of their personality and creativity:
1. The high-resolution camera is best for storytellers
realme dedicates its
flagship camera technology to the realme Number Series, making it a perfect fit
for mobile photographers and videographers who enjoy using smartphone cameras
for their storytelling.
The realme 12 5G has a
108MP 3x Zoom Portrait Camera that allows users to take stunning photos even in
low-light settings. This is possible using the high-level HM6 Sensor, which
captures ample light in every shot.
As a sweet treat for film buffs, the camera also has built-in Portrait Master Filters that can enhance the look of photos and videos. Co-developed by award-winning cinematographer, Claudio Miranda, these filters are Journey, Memory, and Maverick, which have varying tones and colors to produce cinematic visuals in every shot.
2. The aesthetics are match-made for Gen Zs
Style and design are
essential for yuppies and Gen Zs when choosing smartphones. Thankfully, the
realme 12 Series 5G stands out with its beautiful design. The realme 12 5G is
available in two gorgeous new colors: Twilight Purple and Woodland Green.
Twilight Purple is a
whimsical shade of lavender with a soft tone, while Woodland Green has a deeper
tone of green reminiscent of nature and lush forests. Both add a pop of color
to the device and the finish is glossy and iridescent, without being susceptible
to fingerprint smudges.
Whether the vibe is
relaxed or energetic, light or dark, minimalist or maximalist, the realme 12 5G
colors are perfect for those looking for a stylish phone that can match their
everyday aesthetic and personality.
The design is also composed of three main elements: the eye-catching Polished Sunburst Dial acting as the bed of the camera module that gives a classic sunburst effect; the Polished PVD Edges framing the slim and sleek body of the device, and the diamond-patterned 3D Jubilee Bracelet which subtly ties the whole look together.
3. All-around performance for career-driven millennials
Millennials opt for
devices with all-rounder features that work together to maximize productivity.
The realme 12 5G has all the essentials, including a fast-charging 45W
SUPERVOOC Charge with a 5000mAh Massive Battery that reaches full battery
capacity in just over an hour, plus a highly efficient MediaTek Dimensity 6100+
processor.
However, the little things
make the realme 12 5G convenient and practical because it has additional
features that elevate the overall user experience. One unique feature is the
new Riding Mode for “riding” or “traveling” scenarios. The Riding Mode prioritizes
three apps: Google Maps, Music, and Google Dialer for easy UI navigation.
At the same time, the
device is equipped with a 6.7” 120Hz Sunlight Display with three-for-one
functions: a wide FHD+ Resolution, with a high refresh rate that can reach up
to 950 Nits of brightness in Sunlight Mode. The Sunlight Display feature
ensures users can view the screen even under bright sunlight.
Overall, the realme 12 5G
is realme’s latest device that certainly packs a punch. The realme Squad can
immediately cop the device and enjoy all its exciting features once it
launches, so better tune in to the online livestream launch event on April 25
on realme’s Facebook and Youtube pages.

announcements about the realme 12 Series 5G, the Squad can also visit the

Stylishly stand out from the crowd with realme 12 Pro+ 5G
Here are some ways to stand out online
and in the world:
Put
together high-quality looks through minimalist pieces
Minimalism in fashion remains timeless
because it opposes flashy yet temporary trends. Simple pieces in neutral colors
will remain in style season after season, so it’s no surprise that this
aesthetic is still current. Looking good doesn’t necessarily mean having to
wear over-the-top pieces.
To make sure minimalist ‘fits are
showcased properly, the quality, material, and visual impact of the entire look
must be captured with precise detail. The realme 12 Pro+ 5G and its three
distinct cameras provide the perfect solution to this. The high-quality photos
produced by the 64MP Periscope Portrait Lens allows quiet pieces to stand out
and shine. The realme 12 Pro+ 5G currently has one of the highest resolution
telephoto lenses on any smartphone camera in its segment, with up to 3x
Telephoto Zoom and 6x In-Sensor Zoom for up close and personal portrait shots.
Additionally, the realme 12 Pro+ 5G showcases the ultimate in versatility with
its other two cameras. It has a 50MP Sony IMX890 Optical Image Stabilization
(OIS) lens that allows users to take photos on the move, with no blurs and
other interference, while its 8MP 112° Wide Angle camera is perfect for
capturing backgrounds in OOTDs.
Exude
sophistication through chic and luxurious outfits
A new trend that popped up recently is
the quiet luxury aesthetic. This style champions understated elegance, refined
taste, and high-quality pieces made with sumptuous materials. Quiet luxury, a
style favored by those who favor traditional looks, is often associated with
muted colors, rich materials like cashmere, and craftsmanship.
Channel the traditional look with a
smartphone that’s not just stylish but looks upscale. The realme 12 Pro+ 5G
accentuates chic, classic outfits with its Luxury Watch Design. Ollivier Savéo,
an international luxury watch design master who has worked with labels like
Rolex, Roger Dubuis, Piaget, Breitling, and Quentin, co-designed realme’s
latest smartphone. He infused elements from luxury watchmaking into the
smartphone, like a classic polished
sunburst dial, a golden fluted bezel, and a 3D jubilee bracelet. The back has a
silky, high-end vegan leather finish.
Stand
out with an urban and sophisticated ‘fit
While understated elegance has its
appeal, some choose to stand out and dazzle. Combining streetwear with luxury
pieces makes a bold declaration of style with its contrast.
Highlight this eye-catching look with
the realme 12 Pro+ 5G’s Master Portrait Filters. Claudio Miranda, an Oscar
Award winner, took inspiration from Hollywood films to create exclusive filters
that suit different ‘fits. Users can choose from any of the following available
filters:
● Journey: Inspired by the hit movie “Life of Pi”
with yellow tones and high contrast colors to create a “dream-like” tone
● Memory: Inspired by the film “The Curious Case
of Benjamin Button” with cold tones and low-saturation colors for a calm and
capable vibe
● Maverick: Inspired by the movie “Top Gun:
Maverick” with yellow-green tones, high contrast, and high noise to create a
retro film-like vibe
Gen Z and millennials’ impact on the
fashion industry extends beyond mere trends; it's a cultural movement that
champions individuality and inclusivity. With their innovative style approach
and widespread influence across different platforms, these groups shape the
fashion landscape in many ways.
The cutting-edge technology and features
of the realme 12 Pro+ 5G empower Gen Z and Millennials to express their
fashion-forward ideas with confidence and share them with a global audience. The realme 12 Pro+ 5G retails for only P25,999 and comes
in two colorways: Submarine Blue and Navigator Beige. Check out realme’s
official offline stores, Shopee, Lazada, and TikTok Shop.
