A fresh leak has emerged detailing major specifications for Realme's upcoming Pro-series smartphone, which may hit the market as either the Realme 17 Pro or the Realme 17 Pro+.
Information shared by an X tipster indicates the device will sport a flat 1.5K OLED screen running at a 120Hz refresh rate, with capability reaching up to 165Hz during specific gaming sessions. Additional hardware details point to a Dimensity 7500 processor, a main 200MP camera, along with a 50MP telephoto lens providing 3.5x optical zoom.
Reports further indicate the inclusion of an ultrawide camera with an undisclosed resolution paired with a large 10,000mAh battery. The chassis is expected to feature plastic construction, while the rear camera island layout will bear a strong resemblance to the Realme 16 Pro+.
These leaked details point to multiple differences when stacked against the Realme 16 Pro+. The upcoming handset may swap out the curved screen for a flat display and trade an aluminum frame for plastic, alongside a massive jump in battery capacity moving from 7,000mAh to 10,000mAh.
Questions remain regarding the exact model identity due to the processor specifications. While the Realme 16 Pro+ runs on a Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 chip, the leaked device points toward a Dimensity 7500, suggesting it could instead be an advanced version of the standard Realme 16 Pro, which also uses a plastic frame.
Camera configurations provide additional context since the Realme 16 Pro lacks a telephoto lens, meaning the addition of a 50MP sensor with 3.5x optical zoom represents an upgrade. At this stage, confirmation is lacking on whether these leaked details apply to the Realme 17 Pro or the Realme 17 Pro+.
Realme has not provided official confirmation regarding the handset or its features. Future announcements are expected to clear up the exact naming and hardware upgrades planned for the next generation of Pro-series devices.
