Realme 3 and 3i getting June and July 2021 security patches with the new update

As seen most of the time, Realme does not start the rollout of a new security patch at the beginning of the month, as Samsung does. The company starts slow in the first half of the month and accelerates at a very good pace in the second half. We saw the same with July 2021 security patch which is now rolling out at a very good pace for the Realme phones. Realme 3 and 3i are the company’s latest phones to receive the new security update.

Realme is pushing June and July 2021 security patches in the same update for both Realme 3 and 3i users in India. The new software update for Realme 3 and 3i are identified by firmware versions RMX1821EX_11.C.22 and RMX1821EX_11.C.22. 

In addition to the new security patches, the latest build also brings optimizations to system performance and improved system stability. So, after installing the update, you will feel slight performance enhancements, not major and the system security and privacy are also getting better with the new security patches. 

If you’re a Realme 3 or 3i user in India, then you might have already received the new update. If you have not, then manually update your phone by heading to Settings >> Software updates and then download & install the new build. As usual, the new OTA package is rolling out in a staged fashion. So, it may take a few days to reach all the units.
