Realme 16T 5G, Realme Watch S5 Receive SIRIM Certification, Launch Expected Soon

Realme appears to be gearing up for the launch of new devices, as the upcoming Realme 16T 5G and Realme Watch S5 have received certification from Malaysia’s SIRIM authority. This development comes shortly after the Realme 16T 5G was approved by Thailand’s NBTC certification platform last week, indicating that the devices could debut in the near future.

According to the SIRIM database, the Realme 16T 5G carries the model number RMX5268, while the Realme Watch S5 is listed with model number RMW2502. As is typically the case with such certifications, the listings do not reveal detailed specifications or features of the devices.

Realme 16T 5G Expected Specifications and Variants

Based on recent leaks, the Realme 16T 5G is expected to be offered in multiple configurations, including 6GB RAM + 128GB storage, 8GB RAM + 128GB storage, and 8GB RAM + 256GB storage options. The handset may be introduced in colour variants such as Starlight Red, Starlight Black, and Aurora Green.

The smartphone has also been spotted on India’s BIS certification platform, suggesting that its launch in the Indian market could be imminent. It is expected to be positioned below the Realme 16 in the company’s lineup, which starts at Rs. 31,999. As a result, the Realme 16T 5G could be priced at around Rs. 25,000 in India.

Realme Watch S5 Also in the Works

Alongside the smartphone, the Realme Watch S5 has also received SIRIM certification, indicating that the brand may unveil both devices together. The smartwatch has previously been approved by Indonesia’s SDPPI authority, pointing to a broader rollout across multiple markets.

While specifications of the Realme Watch S5 remain under wraps, it is expected to succeed the Realme Watch S2, which was launched in 2024. Notably, the company appears to have skipped the Watch S3 and Watch S4 naming scheme.

The smartwatch has also surfaced on the BIS certification platform, suggesting that India could be among the first markets to receive it.

Launch Timeline

Although Realme has not officially confirmed the launch dates for the Realme 16T 5G and Realme Watch S5, multiple certifications across regions indicate that an announcement could take place soon.
