The MediaTek Dimensity 6100+, the chip used in the Realme 12X, contains four ARM Cortex-A76 performance cores that can reach up to 2.2 GHz in clock speed and four Cortex-A55 efficiency cores that can reach up to 2.0 GHz.
Furthermore, 256 GB to 512 GB of flash memory and 12 GB of RAM are always present. The battery can receive up to 15 watts of USB-C charging power, and it has a 5,000 mAh capacity. The casing is not totally waterproof, however it is certified IP54, meaning it is shielded from rain and water splashes. Based on Android 14, Realme UI 5 is included with the Realme 12X.
