Realme users can head to the Google form linked on the announcement page on the Realme community forum. Here, they can full up the form to submit their application for the program. The company did not clarify if it will roll out the Android 11 Beta at launch on June 3. However, releasing the Beta version to other Android devices is not a new practice. Google has ensured compatibility for an increasing number of Android devices beyond its Google Pixel lineup in the last two releases.

This program seems similar to the beta programs that other Android smartphone makers are running. These companies include OnePlus, Xiaomi, Oppo, and more. It is worth noting that currently, this program is only open to Realme X2 Pro users in the market. The company is “evaluating to bring it” to more devices in the future. We are not sure if the company will roll out an AOSP version of Android 11 Beta to the X2 Pro users or seamlessly upgrade the Realme UI layer with the latest version. We will update the company when we get come clarity.
