Giving the market an option to own a powerful smartphone at a more affordable price, realme Philippines unveils its latest addition to its true value C-series, the realme C3. Tagged as the triple-camera gaming monster, the realme C3 brings midrange camera and processor performance to the entry-level segment.
I was able to own one even before the unit was launch last March 5, 2020 here in the Philippines. And true to what it says in paper, realme C3 boast a higher-tier features at a lower price.
Just so you know, the realme C3 is the first smarthphone powered by the latest chipset from MediaTek, the Helio G70 processor, making it one of the fastest-performing smartphones in the market today and likely to be the most powerful entry-level smartphone. Its processor allows the phone to mitigate network latency, optimizing connection for streamers, gamers and regular online surfers.
Aside from that, this affordable unit features an AI triple-camera setup with a 12MP main camera. The setup supports professional-level bokeh, portrait mode and panoselfie. We actually tried the powerful camera in one of our “ganaps” in Makati City and I just love how the result looks like after our shoot.
We took these photos around 3 o’clock in the afternoon. The silhouette shot actually looks decently dramatic.
The newest entry-level realme smartphone also boasts a 6.5-inch mini-drop full screen, which allows for a high screen-to-body ratio of 89.8 percent for an even more immersive experience be it when reading, watching movies or playing video games.
The realme C3’s camera, display and overall performance are complemented by a large-capacity 5,000mAh battery and reverse charging feature.
“After being hailed as the top 4 smartphone brand in the Philippines and earning the title “fastest growing smartphone brand of 2019”, we at realme Philippines are even more committed to bring only the best to our consumers. We are excited to bring to the Filipinos the most powerful smartphone in the entry-level. We are confident that the realme C3 will be a perfect fit for every young Filipino eager to start working on their passion, be it photography, content creation or gaming,” shares realme Philippines Vice President for Marketing Austine Huang.
