The Realme laptop was first teased by Madhav Sheth, CEO, Realme India and Europe who posted a picture of a laptop inside an office envelope made out of paper on Twitter. This was likely a throwback to how Apple's Steve Jobs unveiled the MacBook Air back in 2008 by removing it from a paper office envelope and the crowd was shocked at just how thin the laptop was.

The design of the Realme Book has leaked and it looks likely to have taken inspiration from the Apple MacBook Air. We get a 3:2 aspect ratio display and a design that looks thin and light and eerily similar to the MacBook Air.

While we do not know the exact dimensions of the Realme Book laptop yet, it could follow similar minimal aesthetics with an aluminium build. As per the information by OnLeaks, the Realme Book measures 307x229x16mm (12.08×9.01×0.62 inches) which makes it slimmer than the Mi NoteBook 14 but not the MacBook Air.

As per the new information by OnLeaks, the Realme Book laptop features a 14-inch display that is likely a Full HD anti-glare panel. At the bottom, the Realme Book has a wide speaker grille suggesting the presence of stereo speakers on board.

We know that the Realme Book has two Type-C ports on the left side which only leaves the right side for other I/O ports like more Type-C ports, USB-A ports or a 3.5mm headphone jack. However, if Realme is aiming for a similar profile as the MacBook Air, then we can expect two additional Type-C ports on the right side along with an audio out.
