“In the spirit of dare to leap, realme has always asserted its commitment to providing an array of pioneering products. This is a journey that was kicked off in a bid to bring local consumers the best of trendsetting technologies and features,“ the company said in a statement.
Realme 7i specifications
The realme 7i comes with a 6.5-inch display with a resolution of 720 x 1600 pixels. This display has a 90Hz refresh rate which is quite impressive and will be a big deal if realme keeps the price that I indicated above. This display is protected with Corning Gorilla 3.
Under the hood the realme 7i is powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 662 processor (octa-core). This is paired with either 4 or 8GB of RAM with either 64 or 128GB of internal storage space. It comes with Android 10 out of the box with realme UI on top.
For your photos, the realme 7i has a quad setup at the back that is made up of a 64MP main sensor, an 8MP ultrawide angle sensor, 2MP monochrome sensor and another 2MP sensor. For selfies, the phone features a 16MP Sony sensor.
Providing all the power is a 5,000 mAh battery that supports 18W fast charging. This is not very fast but it should save you some time when charging.
For every purchase of the realme 7i smartphone customers will receive Buds Q worth 3,999Ksh. Offer valid from 11th-30th November.
Realme C12
The realme C12, on the other hand, comes with a 6000mAh mega battery that supports reverse charging. It comes with an Helio G35 Octa-core 64 bits processor that lets the user enjoy gaming without the phone slowing down or restarting. For security purposes, realme C12 comes with a screen-to-body ratio instant fingerprint sensor that allows only the phone user to have access to the phone once authenticated.
Equipped with a 6.5-inch 20:9 screen, realme C12 brings a larger field of view, provides an excellent game, audio, and video experience. This allows you to enjoy a wider field of view brought by the large screen and less visual disturbance while giving you an experience of the near-full screen.
