Realme 15x 5G launched in India with an “IP69 Pro” rating, 7000mAh battery

October 9, 2025

Realme just dropped its latest midrange phone, the Realme 15x 5G, in India. This one packs a huge 7,000 mAh battery and an “IP69 Pro” dust and water resistance for enhanced durability. Now, let’s jump into this article, where I will discuss everything about the latest Realme 15x 5G, including its expected price in Nepal, specifications, and availability.

Realme 15x 5G Overview

Design and Display

The 15X has what Realme calls a “Crystal Wave Design”, a Realme jargon for designs that are no less typical of glossy or gradient backs. The rectangular camera module on the top left features three large lenses arranged vertically, with only the top lens serving as the rear camera. The purpose of the second lens is unclear, as it is not specified whether it serves any functional role or is merely a placeholder that most smartphone companies love to put.

Additionally, the Realme 15x includes a “Pulse Light” at the back for notifications, offering nine color options and five glowing modes. The phone is MIL-STD-810H certified, and as Realme mentions, the 15x is shock-resistant up to a height of 2 meters. Water protection is another feature boasted about this device. With its IP66 + IP68 + IP69 certification and a special “IP69 Pro” rating, it can survive up to 2 meters underwater for 60 days and handle 36 different liquids. Compared to the standard IP69, which only protects for 30 minutes and only under clear water.

The screen here is quite big, at 6.8 inches. Although this IPS panel still sticks to an HD+ resolution only, meaning content could end up looking a bit soft here. But at least it has a smooth 144Hz refresh rate, a 180Hz touch sampling rate, and a respectable 1,200 nits of peak brightness.

Performance and Software

At the core is the 6nm Dimensity 6300 chipset, an extremely familiar player in budget phones by 2025. Perhaps so familiar, it has been a go-to chipset for almost every other budget smartphone company. Regardless, Realme claims it can run 13 apps simultaneously and adds AI Boost to optimise frequently used apps for “smoothness.” There’s also a “Smart Touch” feature for wet-hand responsiveness. Meanwhile, the phone runs Realme UI 6.0 on Android 15, with promised updates for two Android generations.

Camera and Battery

The camera setup on the Realme 15x is interesting: with both front and rear cameras getting a 50MP sensor. Realme has used Sony’s IMX852 sensor at the back with an f/1.8 aperture, while the selfie shooter gets Omnivision’s OV50D40 f/2.4 lens. The 15x even has “AI Edit Genie” feature that lets you edit your images using voice commands.

The 7000mAh battery provided in Realme 15x 5G is massive by today’s standards, though definitely not mind-blowing considering Realme teased a 15,000mAh phone back in August, which I have covered here.

Anyway, the phone charges at 60W via the included 80W charger, supports 6.5W reverse charging, and Realme claims it can handle 23 hours of YouTube or “1 charge for 2 days of usage”. Connectivities and sensors are usual stuff like Bluetooth 5.3, side-mounted fingerprint sensor, dual-band WiFi, which aren’t worth elaborating upon. The one interesting thing here is that Realme’s “AI Call Noise Reduction 2.0” feature apparently filters ambient sounds up to 70dB, claiming an 86% noise reduction.
