Realme Might Be Working on a Game of Thrones Version of Realme 15 Pro

Realme Might Be Working on a Game of Thrones Version of Realme 15 Pro

Realme 15 Pro made its debut last month alongside the Realme 15 base model. Now, as per a report, the company is working on a Game of Thrones variant of the device. This limited edition version was reportedly spotted on a certification platform’s listings, hinting that it can soon be launched. This limited edition smartphone is said not to offer any enhanced or different specifications, and any inclusions are likely purely aesthetic. The Chinese smartphone brand is yet to officially announce the details around this device.

Realme 15 Pro Gets a Game of Thrones Makeover

According to an Xpertpick report, a smartphone with the name “Realme 15 Pro 5G Game of Thrones L.E.” was recently spotted on Malaysia’s SIRIM certification platform. The listing also mentioned the model number RMX5101, which is the same model number as the regular version. This has led to the belief that the special edition device does not bring any hardware changes. It has reportedly been approved to launch in Malaysia. It is unclear whether the phone will also launch in other markets.

The report speculates that the Game of Thrones version of Realme 15 Pro could arrive with a custom-themed design, unique user interface elements, collectables and stickers, and a limited-edition box inspired by the series. None of this has been confirmed by the smartphone maker. But it does appear that no specification upgrades will be provided with this smartphone.

Notably, the Realme 15 Pro 5G features a 6.8-inch AMOLED screen with up to 144Hz refresh rate, and Corning Gorilla Glass 7i protection. Under the hood, the smartphone is equipped with a Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 chipset paired with up to 12GB of LPDDR4X RAM and up to 512GB of UFS 3.1 in-built storage. Out of the box, the handset comes with Android 15-based Realme UI 6 operating system.

Coming to the cameras, the Realme 15 Pro 5G sports a 50-megapixel Sony IMX896 primary sensor and a 50-megapixel ultrawide lens on the rear panel. On the front, it gets a 50-megapixel selfie camera. The smartphone is backed by a 7,000mAh battery, which supports 80W wired fast charging.

Humane AI Pin and the Rabbit R1, and their goal was simple. Observe your surroundings to better understand the world, and help you do normal smartphone things by just talking to it. Well, both devices were massive flops due to their inability to perform even the most basic tasks. Surprisingly, the AI wearable market isn’t ready to give up yet, and there’s a new Indian startup trying to shake things up: Neosapien.

Imagine this: You’re a busy professional trying to juggle a full-time job and a side hustle after work. This is the reality of most people today. You don’t get time for yourself, and it becomes easy to lose track of important information. Maybe your boss asked you to do a presentation at home and present it tomorrow, but you forgot. That’s where Neosapien Neo 1 wants to help you. It’s essentially an outsourced memory farm that listens to important conversations and remembers things for you. The idea is pretty clever, but is the Neo 1 worth ₹13,499? To find out, I used the device for the better part of three weeks and even took it with me to Jaipur to cover an esports tournament.

Summary

The Neosapien Neo 1 serves a niche purpose. It’s for busy people who have trouble managing multiple jobs or hobbies, yet still want to do their best. I’ve never been the kind of person who consistently uses reminder apps because setting everything up feels like extra work. So a device that listens to and understands what I’m saying and keeps track of everything I need to do, like a personal assistant, is great

Neosapien Neo 1 Review: The AI Pendant That Actually Helped Me Stay Organized
	
It’s 2026, and AI is being shoved into almost every aspect of our lives, whether we want it or not. Still, there’s one category of AI products that has not seen much innovation: wearables. Some of you might remember the Humane AI Pin and the Rabbit R1, and their goal was simple. Observe your surroundings to better understand the world, and help you do normal smartphone things by just talking to it. Well, both devices were massive flops due to their inability to perform even the most basic tasks. Surprisingly, the AI wearable market isn’t ready to give up yet, and there’s a new Indian startup trying to shake things up: Neosapien. 



Imagine this: You’re a busy professional trying to juggle a full-time job and a side hustle after work. This is the reality of most people today.

Design & Build







Unlike the Humane AI Pin, the Neosapien Neo 1 is elegantly simple. There are no screens or speakers. Instead, you get a sophisticated pendant-shaped wearable that’s not very heavy. I do wear a simple silver chain, so I thought it would take me some time to get used to it, but that wasn’t the case. After just 5 minutes, you simply forget it’s even there. The rectangular wearable on the front houses a metal shell with the Neo logo centered. The logo glows when it’s working, so you don’t have to pull your phone to check. Underneath the logo is a touch-sensitive area you can tap to turn the device on, and that’s pretty much it. 



Some might argue for an AI wearable you can only use via your phone, but I do like the idea of it not being in your face. I already have a million different things bombarding me for attention, like my smartwatch, my earphones, and my doomscrolling beacon of death, the phone. So an AI device that sits quietly on my chest is great. 



Performance 







All this talk about Neosapien Neo 1 centers around one key idea. It’s supposed to remember things for you. And I’m one of those people who constantly forgets important information. Had a plan with me to go out and get lunch together? Too bad, I’ve forgotten. Part of this behavior, which I’m not proud of, is that I’m always distracted by some work. Never a day goes by that I’m not rushing to complete something. So, as you may imagine, I was quite excited to test the Neo 1 out, and, maybe, finally lend a helping hand to my brain. 



When you first set up the Neo 1, it trains to recognize your voice. This, in theory, helps it sort memories more effectively. It listens constantly to whatever conversation you’re having and uses AI to transcribe, summarize, and even set reminders of important meetings, once you connect to Google Calendar. I did all of that and took it to cover the BMPS Grand Finals happening in Jaipur last week. One of the stories I worked on was a daily recap covering the biggest moments from each match. While this is usually a labor-intensive process of me writing the highlights in real time as the game is being played, I gave that task to the Neo 1 instead. It heard the commentary and recorded everything. 



For the most part, the experience was better than expected. The device transcribed the commentary, which was in Hindi, and summarized the information game by game. This included the different strategies teams used, the commentators’ analysis, and how they played throughout the tournament. I could use those summaries as a foundation for my article without constantly referring back to handwritten notes.



App Experience





The best part about the Neo 1 is that you can sort through different memories and even ask the integrated chatbot questions. For example, I often remember that I’ve forgotten something important, but can’t quite figure out what it is. So, I just asked the bot, and it gave remarkably accurate answers. There’s also the obvious benefit of recording meetings, which are mostly boring with just sprinkles of useful information. That’s the part the Neo 1 excels at. I don’t have to worry about checking the deadline; I can just use the wearable. 



Everything we just talked about is handled by the app, which is also pretty simple. There are four different sections: Home, Ask Neo, Memories, and Reminders. All of them are pretty self-explanatory, and they work quite well. I’m a fan of the reminders section because it highlights everything I haven’t done yet, which is usually a lot. The battery lasts a full day on a single charge, and it uses the standard USB-C port for charging. 



As useful as the Neo 1 is, it isn’t without its flaws. The Neo 1 is a first-generation product, and it comes with a few quirks you should know about. The biggest hurdle is psychological rather than technical: the device is always listening. I don’t know about you, but it took me a few days to be comfortable with an AI device listening to all my conversations and recording things the other person is saying.



The other is that the Neo 1 struggles with names. Don’t get me wrong, its Hindi transcription is great, but it needs a little more work to get the names of people and teams correctly. Beyond those, the Neo app requires many permissions, the most important being the ability to disable battery optimization. I know it’s necessary for the app to work and use the AI features, but it drains a lot of battery. I had to shift the app from my primary phone to my secondary phone for that reason. So, it’d be great if Neo could optimize the app a bit more. 



Verdict







At ₹12,999, the Neosapien Neo 1 serves a niche purpose. It’s for busy people who have trouble managing multiple jobs or hobbies, yet still want to do their best. I’ve never been the kind of person who consistently uses reminder apps because setting everything up feels like extra work. So a device that listens to and understands what I’m saying and keeps track of everything I need to do, like a personal assistant, is great. Don’t get me wrong, it’s still a first-generation product, and there are some problems like the increased battery drain or the fact that someone is listening to everything you say. But after three weeks of use, I found myself relying on it more often than I expected. And that’s probably the strongest compliment I can give a first-generation product.

I already have a million different things bombarding me for attention, like my smartwatch, my earphones, and my doomscrolling beacon of death, the phone. So an AI device that sits quietly on my chest is great.

Performance

All this talk about Neosapien Neo 1 centers around one key idea. It’s supposed to remember things for you. And I’m one of those people who constantly forgets important information. Had a plan with me to go out and get lunch together? Too bad, I’ve forgotten. Part of this behavior, which I’m not proud of, is that I’m always distracted by some work. Never a day goes by that I’m not rushing to complete something. So, as you may imagine, I was quite excited to test the Neo 1 out, and, maybe, finally lend a helping hand to my brain.

When you first set up the Neo 1, it trains to recognize your voice. This, in theory, helps it sort memories more effectively. It listens constantly to whatever conversation you’re having and uses AI to transcribe, summarize, and even set reminders of important meetings, once you connect to Google Calendar. I did all of that and took it to cover the BMPS Grand Finals happening in Jaipur last week. One of the stories I worked on was a daily recap covering the biggest moments from each match. While this is usually a labor-intensive process of me writing the highlights in real time as the game is being played, I gave that task to the Neo 1 instead. It heard the commentary and recorded everything.

For the most part, the experience was better than expected. The device transcribed the commentary, which was in Hindi, and summarized the information game by game. This included the different strategies teams used, the commentators’ analysis, and how they played throughout the tournament. I could use those summaries as a foundation for my article without constantly referring back to handwritten notes.

App Experience

The best part about the Neo 1 is that you can sort through different memories and even ask the integrated chatbot questions. For example, I often remember that I’ve forgotten something important, but can’t quite figure out what it is. So, I just asked the bot, and it gave remarkably accurate answers. There’s also the obvious benefit of recording meetings, which are mostly boring with just sprinkles of useful information. That’s the part the Neo 1 excels at. I don’t have to worry about checking the deadline; I can just use the wearable.

Everything we just talked about is handled by the app, which is also pretty simple. There are four different sections: Home, Ask Neo, Memories, and Reminders. All of them are pretty self-explanatory, and they work quite well. I’m a fan of the reminders section because it highlights everything I haven’t done yet, which is usually a lot. The battery lasts a full day on a single charge, and it uses the standard USB-C port for charging.

As useful as the Neo 1 is, it isn’t without its flaws. The Neo 1 is a first-generation product, and it comes with a few quirks you should know about. The biggest hurdle is psychological rather than technical: the device is always listening. I don’t know about you, but it took me a few days to be comfortable with an AI device listening to all my conversations and recording things the other person is saying.

The other is that the Neo 1 struggles with names. Don’t get me wrong, its Hindi transcription is great, but it needs a little more work to get the names of people and teams correctly. Beyond those, the Neo app requires many permissions, the most important being the ability to disable battery optimization. I know it’s necessary for the app to work and use the AI features, but it drains a lot of battery. I had to shift the app from my primary phone to my secondary phone for that reason. So, it’d be great if Neo could optimize the app a bit more.

Verdict

Neo 1 kept on a MacBook

At ₹12,999, the Neosapien Neo 1 serves a niche purpose. It’s for busy people who have trouble managing multiple jobs or hobbies, yet still want to do their best. I’ve never been the kind of person who consistently uses reminder apps because setting everything up feels like extra work. So a device that listens to and understands what I’m saying and keeps track of everything I need to do, like a personal assistant, is great. Don’t get me wrong, it’s still a first-generation product, and there are some problems like the increased battery drain or the fact that someone is listening to everything you say. But after three weeks of use, I found myself relying on it more often than I expected. And that’s probably the strongest compliment I can give a first-generation product.

It’s 2026, and AI is being shoved into almost every aspect of our lives, whether we want it or not. Still, there’s one category of AI products that has not seen much innovation: wearables. Some of you might remember the Humane AI Pin and the Rabbit R1, and their goal was simple.

Well, both devices were massive flops due to their inability to perform even the most basic tasks. Surprisingly, the AI wearable market isn’t ready to give up yet, and there’s a new Indian startup trying to shake things up: Neosapien.

Imagine this: You’re a busy professional trying to juggle a full-time job and a side hustle after work. This is the reality of most people today. You don’t get time for yourself, and it becomes easy to lose track of important information. Maybe your boss asked you to do a presentation at home and present it tomorrow, but you forgot. That’s where Neosapien Neo 1 wants to help you. It’s essentially an outsourced memory farm that listens to important conversations and remembers things for you. The idea is pretty clever, but is the Neo 1 worth ₹13,499? To find out, I used the device for the better part of three weeks and even took it with me to Jaipur to cover an esports tournament.

Neosapien Neo 1 Review: The AI Pendant That Actually Helped Me Stay Organized
	
It’s 2026, and AI is being shoved into almost every aspect of our lives, whether we want it or not. Still, there’s one category of AI products that has not seen much innovation: wearables. Some of you might remember the Humane AI Pin and the Rabbit R1, and their goal was simple. Observe your surroundings to better understand the world, and help you do normal smartphone things by just talking to it. Well, both devices were massive flops due to their inability to perform even the most basic tasks. Surprisingly, the AI wearable market isn’t ready to give up yet, and there’s a new Indian startup trying to shake things up: Neosapien. 



Imagine this: You’re a busy professional trying to juggle a full-time job and a side hustle after work. This is the reality of most people today. You don’t get time for yourself, and it becomes easy to lose track of important information. Maybe your boss asked you to do a presentation at home and present it tomorrow, but you forgot. That’s where Neosapien Neo 1 wants to help you. It’s essentially an outsourced memory farm that listens to important conversations and remembers things for you. The idea is pretty clever, but is the Neo 1 worth ₹13,499? To find out, I used the device for the better part of three weeks and even took it with me to Jaipur to cover an esports tournament.

Design & Build







Unlike the Humane AI Pin, the Neosapien Neo 1 is elegantly simple. There are no screens or speakers. Instead, you get a sophisticated pendant-shaped wearable that’s not very heavy. I do wear a simple silver chain, so I thought it would take me some time to get used to it, but that wasn’t the case. After just 5 minutes, you simply forget it’s even there. The rectangular wearable on the front houses a metal shell with the Neo logo centered. The logo glows when it’s working, so you don’t have to pull your phone to check. Underneath the logo is a touch-sensitive area you can tap to turn the device on, and that’s pretty much it. 



Some might argue for an AI wearable you can only use via your phone, but I do like the idea of it not being in your face. I already have a million different things bombarding me for attention, like my smartwatch, my earphones, and my doomscrolling beacon of death, the phone.

The second season of Adult Swim’s My Adventures With Superman introduced Supergirl, and it didn’t take long for her to become a fan-favorite. Starting off as a soldier and the adoptive daughter of Brainiac before joining her cousin to defend Earth, Kara’s back for season three—and much like Clark and their friends, she’s got some stuff to figure out. 

Kara’s arc this season is about her settling into becoming Metropolis’ newest protector and sorting out where she and Jimmy stand. Last season made it clear there were sparks on both sides, but in classic romantic tension fashion, neither have revealed their feelings in full. Jimmy thinks Kara should at least become more adjusted to Earth, which she plans to do…by going on dates with other people.

                The second season of Adult Swim’s My Adventures With Superman introduced Supergirl, and it didn’t take long for her to become a fan-favorite.

Last season made it clear there were sparks on both sides, but in classic romantic tension fashion, neither have revealed their feelings in full. Jimmy thinks Kara should at least become more adjusted to Earth, which she plans to do…by going on dates with other people.  This week’s episode, “All’s Fair in Love and W.O.R.M.S.,” sees Kara consult Lois for help with her many matches on dating apps. Meanwhile, Jimmy goes on a date in the hopes of making his Kryptonian friend jealous, with a slight problem: his date, Doris, is actually “Gigi,” aka Giganta, the popular Wonder Woman villain. And in a very Jimmy situation, she’s both into him and wants to run a few experiments on him, including turning him into a wolf. 

 Before the season’s premiere, io9 talked with co-showrunners Jake Wyatt and Brendan Clogher about the show’s other love story. While Kara and Jimmy get paired up every once in a while in comics or other media, Wyatt noted they’re not a “near-sacred pop culture thing” like Clark and Lois. As such, My Adventures With Superman is free to put its younger duo through more stress and modern dating troubles. But it’s not just a matter of testing Kara and Jimmy with one obstacle after another.

 [embed]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cbfUC3-qU8s[/embed] Every relationship faces trials that can often make one half—or even both halves—look bad. Putting Kara and Jimmy in various situations on the path to love is part of the show’s DNA, but he and Wyatt said there’s a limit to what can be done without betraying who these characters are. “It’s a tightrope to keep audience credibility with these two and keep them likable,” Clogher acknowledged. “Supergirl is Supergirl, but we can bend the rules a bit more with Jimmy. He’s emotionally intelligent, but it’s easier to like him when he’s being bad.” “Jimmy’s off being goofus so Kara can be gallant,” added Wyatt. “If Clark and Lois are the romcom, these two are romantic chaos.” The popular manga and anime Ranma 1/2 was cited as a source for the latter term, and it definitely applies. With Jimmy’s love life taking center stage this season, the team knew they wanted him to have an arc of  dating mad-scientists, which would let them turn him into animals as he had in the comics. While doing story revisions on “W.O.R.M.S.,” they realized the episode needed a bigger set piece for the third act—a “King Kong moment,” if you will—but the initial villain they had couldn’t really lead to that escalation. 

 So Giganta was added, allowing for a scene where she changes her size and kidnaps Jimmy before climbing a skyscraper with plans to make him just like her. Wyatt said DC “played ball really well” when it came to including her, and has generally been a good partner in that regard, including getting the Whip in last week’s episode. “Some of [our villains] are about DC notes,” he explained. “Other times, it was with DC assistance.” We won’t spoil Jimmy’s next date, but know that the character was also done with some DC advice, and they’re even more ridiculous than Giganta—and more trying on Kara. [embed]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PCq12i5r3Ug[/embed] Speaking of her, io9 asked if there were any plans to put Kara in some romantic hijinks of her own outside of Jimmy’s orbit. The pair admitted that yes, the team had episode ideas where she’d go on dates, from Steve Lombard to some supervillains. “Those [villain dates] would’ve ended in swift and violent justice,” said Wyatt, which sounds like a riot. Unfortunately, these ideas were some of many in the season to be cut, so the team opted to give Kara a more serious arc of coming into her own as a hero.  That journey, part of which involves her little fangirl Jessica Cruz, will play out as My Adventures With Superman continues with new episodes this summer. But if the show comes back for season four, maybe then we’ll see the Woman of Tomorrow make some bad romantic choices.  Want more io9 news?

My Adventures With Superman introduced Supergirl, and it didn’t take long for her to become a fan-favorite. Starting off as a soldier and the adoptive daughter of Brainiac before joining her cousin to defend Earth, Kara’s back for season three—and much like Clark and their friends, she’s got some stuff to figure out. 

Kara’s arc this season is about her settling into becoming Metropolis’ newest protector and sorting out where she and Jimmy stand. Last season made it clear there were sparks on both sides, but in classic romantic tension fashion, neither have revealed their feelings in full. Jimmy thinks Kara should at least become more adjusted to Earth, which she plans to do…by going on dates with other people.

                The second season of Adult Swim’s My Adventures With Superman introduced Supergirl, and it didn’t take long for her to become a fan-favorite. Starting off as a soldier and the adoptive daughter of Brainiac before joining her cousin to defend Earth, Kara’s back for season three—and much like Clark and their friends, she’s got some stuff to figure out.  Kara’s arc this season is about her settling into becoming Metropolis’ newest protector and sorting out where she and Jimmy stand. Last season made it clear there were sparks on both sides, but in classic romantic tension fashion, neither have revealed their feelings in full. Jimmy thinks Kara should at least become more adjusted to Earth, which she plans to do…by going on dates with other people.  This week’s episode, “All’s Fair in Love and W.O.R.M.S.,” sees Kara consult Lois for help with her many matches on dating apps. Meanwhile, Jimmy goes on a date in the hopes of making his Kryptonian friend jealous, with a slight problem: his date, Doris, is actually “Gigi,” aka Giganta, the popular Wonder Woman villain. And in a very Jimmy situation, she’s both into him and wants to run a few experiments on him, including turning him into a wolf. 

 Before the season’s premiere, io9 talked with co-showrunners Jake Wyatt and Brendan Clogher about the show’s other love story. While Kara and Jimmy get paired up every once in a while in comics or other media, Wyatt noted they’re not a “near-sacred pop culture thing” like Clark and Lois. As such, My Adventures With Superman is free to put its younger duo through more stress and modern dating troubles. But it’s not just a matter of testing Kara and Jimmy with one obstacle after another.

Putting Kara and Jimmy in various situations on the path to love is part of the show’s DNA, but he and Wyatt said there’s a limit to what can be done without betraying who these characters are. “It’s a tightrope to keep audience credibility with these two and keep them likable,” Clogher acknowledged. “Supergirl is Supergirl, but we can bend the rules a bit more with Jimmy. He’s emotionally intelligent, but it’s easier to like him when he’s being bad.” “Jimmy’s off being goofus so Kara can be gallant,” added Wyatt. “If Clark and Lois are the romcom, these two are romantic chaos.” The popular manga and anime Ranma 1/2 was cited as a source for the latter term, and it definitely applies. With Jimmy’s love life taking center stage this season, the team knew they wanted him to have an arc of  dating mad-scientists, which would let them turn him into animals as he had in the comics. While doing story revisions on “W.O.R.M.S.,” they realized the episode needed a bigger set piece for the third act—a “King Kong moment,” if you will—but the initial villain they had couldn’t really lead to that escalation. 

 So Giganta was added, allowing for a scene where she changes her size and kidnaps Jimmy before climbing a skyscraper with plans to make him just like her. Wyatt said DC “played ball really well” when it came to including her, and has generally been a good partner in that regard, including getting the Whip in last week’s episode. “Some of [our villains] are about DC notes,” he explained. “Other times, it was with DC assistance.” We won’t spoil Jimmy’s next date, but know that the character was also done with some DC advice, and they’re even more ridiculous than Giganta—and more trying on Kara. [embed]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PCq12i5r3Ug[/embed] Speaking of her, io9 asked if there were any plans to put Kara in some romantic hijinks of her own outside of Jimmy’s orbit. The pair admitted that yes, the team had episode ideas where she’d go on dates, from Steve Lombard to some supervillains. “Those [villain dates] would’ve ended in swift and violent justice,” said Wyatt, which sounds like a riot. Unfortunately, these ideas were some of many in the season to be cut, so the team opted to give Kara a more serious arc of coming into her own as a hero.  That journey, part of which involves her little fangirl Jessica Cruz, will play out as My Adventures With Superman continues with new episodes this summer.
