Update 1 (04/24/2020 @ 8:44 AM ET): Realme 5i is now getting April 2020 security patches. Scroll to the bottom for more information. The article as published on April 23, 2020, is preserved below.


Most OEMs have their own customized version of Android, which is itself a compelling reason to maintain separate security bulletins besides Google’s monthly Android security patch updates. However, big-name companies like Samsung usually opt for a mix of monthly, quarterly, and sometimes undefined update cycle, probably because of their vast product portfolio. Interestingly, the newcomer Realme has been able to keep up a decent amount of focus on Android updates despite the fact that their phones run a quite heavy OEM skin (first ColorOS, now Realme UI). The company is now rolling out April 2020 security patches along with some improvements and bug fixes to a number of devices. We’ll be updating this article as more devices are added to the list.

Devices that have received April 2020 security patch updates:

  1. Realme 3 and Realme 3i
  2. Realme C3
  3. Realme X2
  4. Realme 6 Pro
  5. Realme 5i
  6. Realme X2 Pro
  7. Realme 5 and Realme 5s
  8. Realme X
  9. Realme 3 Pro

Realme 3 and 3i

The Realme 3 and 3i are essentially the same phone, thus they even share a common firmware. The only difference between the two is in terms of processing power. While the Realme 3 is equipped with the MediaTek Helio P70 SoC, the Realme 3i is powered by a slightly less-powerful MediaTek Helio P60 SoC. The phones are getting fixes to some bugs along with the April 2020 Google security patches as part of the software version RMX1821EX_11.A.28.
