If you're using a device from one of the other OEMs participating in the Beta, head here for instructions on how to enroll.
Currently, the Realme beta is only available in China, and the company says that you'll need to head over to its community to sign up. International users will get access sometime in the next month.

As always, back up all your data before enrolling in the Beta. While it's bound to be more stable than the Developer Previews, there will still be plenty of bugs that need to be worked out. If you can, install it on a secondary device. If you decide to get it on your primary phone, backup everything important and be prepared to encounter issues. But most importantly, enjoy everything Android 12 has to offer.
