Realme Watch 2 Pro India launch set for July 23, Buds Wireless 2 also expected

Realme is going to launch its new smartwatch called the Watch 2 Pro in India later this month.

Story highlights
  • Realme Watch 2 Pro was originally launched in Malaysia earlier this year.
  • Realme also launched the Buds Wireless 2 neckband earphones in Malaysia previously.
  • The Realme Watch 2 Pro is likely to cost around Rs 5,000 in India.

Realme Watch 2 Pro India launch is taking place on July 23. Amazon has put up a dedicated page for the upcoming Realme Watch 2 Pro and that has revealed the launch date before Realme can do that. The Realme Watch 2 Pro was recently confirmed to arrive in India, but Realme did not provide a particular date for that. Besides, Realme is also likely to announce the Realme Buds Wireless 2 neckband earphones in India.

Both the Realme Watch 2 Pro and the Realme Buds Wireless 2 debuted in Malaysia sometime back. Realme's biggest AIoT expansion took place in Malaysia and now the products that were a part of that are coming to India. Realme has not said much about the India launch of these products yet, but we are likely to find out more in the coming days. Realme recently launched the Buds Q2 truly wireless earbuds in India, alongside new trimmers and a new hairdryer.

Realme Watch 2 Pro and Buds Wireless 2 expected price

In Malaysia, the Realme Watch 2 Pro sells for MYR 299, which translates to roughly Rs 5,300. The Realme Buds Wireless 2, on the other hand, costs MYR 199, which is approximately Rs 3,500. If Realme's previous smartwatches and neckband earphones are anything to go by, the upcoming two models are going to cost less than what these projections suggest. Realme has aggressive pricing for its products in India and that will also come down to the Watch 2 Pro and the Buds Wireless 2.
