Realme has rolled out the Android 11 update with its Realme UI 2.0 skin to a bunch of smartphones, however, only to a limited number of users via the Early Access and Open Beta programs.

Despite having the “Pro” moniker, Realme is still testing the Android 11-based Realme UI 2.0 update for the Realme Narzo 20 Pro via the Early Access program.

But it appears that the company is making some progress towards the stable release of Android 11 for the device since it has finally announced the Realme UI 2.0 Open Beta for the Realme Narzo 20 Pro.

Interested users can now apply for the Open Beta program to get a chance to try out the company’s new skin over Android 11 on the device ahead of the stable update.
