Realme on Thursday announced the release of the latest firmware update for its Realme 2 and Realme C1 smartphones in India.

This development comes just days after Realme revealed the update roadmap for its first smartphone, the Realme 1. The Realme 1 is expected to get the ColorOS 5.2 stable update on or after November 25. It will bring features like single-swipe notification dismissal, a headset icon, and fixes for developer options' flashing.
Even the Realme 2 Pro will get the same update after November 20, however it will be slightly delayed for the Realme 2 and Realme C1. As promised, however, the company started rolling out November 2018 Android security patch for these two phones on November 15. The replies to the original tweet suggest that the update hasn't yet reflected for users, leading us to believed that it is being rolled out gradually. Additionally, in a reply to a user, Realme India's support page said that ColorOS 5.2 will come to the Realme 2 in the end of December 2018. The company also recently confirmed it would be releasing an Android Pie update for the Realme 1 and Realme 2 smartphones 'soon'.
To recall, Realme is a spinoff from Chinese phone brand Oppo, and recognises itself as an independent brand. The company is headed globally by Sky Li, former Global VP of Oppo.
