The realme 7i was unveiled in kenya yesterday and is available in stores for Ksh 24,999. This is one of the handful of devices the company has unveiled in the country within the last couple of months. Realme’s portfolio in Kenya is quite impressive for a brand that has been operating locally for just a few months.
The company currently has the realme C3, realme C11, realme C15, realme 6, realme C12 and realme 7i smartphones in the market. The other products under its belt available in Kenya include the realme Bank, Air Neo and Buds Q.
The realme 7i comes with some impressive specifications. It has 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.
Below is a look at some of its other key specifications.
