JAKARTA - Realme officially confirmed the launch of the Realme Neo 8 which is scheduled to take place later this month in China. Along with the announcement, Realme released the first look of the Cyber Purple color variant, which immediately sent a clear signal: the Neo line is upgraded and looks more aggressive in 2026.
From the circulating official image, the Realme Neo 8 carries a transparent back panel in a cyber style with a futuristic purple touch. The see-through design shows a decorative internal pattern, giving the impression of being technological and "gaming-ready", as if this phone wants to show off the contents of the head, not just a beautiful casing.
On the right side of the camera module, the Awakening Halo RGB feature is back. This special light serves as a visual accent during notifications and charging, reinforcing Neo's identity as a high-performance phone with a bold aesthetic. The most eye-catching detail is the "120X" writing near the camera, indicating the presence of a periscope telephoto lens with long-distance zoom capabilities.
Realme also ensures that the Neo 8 no longer uses a plastic frame. All variants are said to use a metal frame with a glass body, a significant improvement that brings Neo 8 closer to the flagship class, both in terms of durability and grip.
In terms of specifications, the leak says the Realme Neo 8 will be equipped with a 6.78-inch Samsung AMOLED screen with a resolution of 1,500 pixels with a refresh rate of 165Hz. The screen is rumored to support an ultrasonic fingerprint sensor under the screen as well as full water resistance certification. For the processor, the Neo 8 is predicted to use the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5, paired with LPDDR5x RAM and UFS 4.1 storage, a combination that puts it at the flagship performance level.
The power sector is also not to be trifled with. This phone is said to carry a jumbo 8,000mAh battery with 80W fast charging support. Camera information is still limited, but early reports mention the presence of a 50-megapixel periscope sensor as one of the main weapons of photography.
If the price leak is accurate, the Realme Neo 8 has the potential to launch in the range of 2,500 yuan or around Rp5.8 million. With a futuristic design, high-end specifications, and an aggressive price tag, Neo 8 seems ready to disrupt the high-performance mobile market. This year, Realme seems to want to say: flagship vibes, but the wallet can still breathe,
