The entry-level realme C31 Android smartphone has been launched today after it leaked last week. The device is budget-friendly, so it does not offer much in terms of features and specs. It comes with a 6.5-inch HD+ IPS display with 60Hz refresh rate, and is powered by an octa-core Unisoc processor.
Buyers can select between 3GB/32GB or 4GB/64GB versions during purchase, both having microSD slots to expand their limited storage. At the rear are 13MP main, 2MP depth, macro cameras for photography, while a 5MP camera is mounted at the top of the display for selfie.
The realme C31 has a single speaker that is located at the back, and a rather old micro-USB port at the bottom beside the mic for charging. Charging the 5000mAh battery that comes with the phone will take quite an amount of time because it does not support fast charging.
Anyway, we expect at least 10W charging to be supported and the respective charger to be packed inside in the retail box. It has a side-mounted fingerprint sensor, a 3.5mm audio jack, and a SIM slot that accept two SIM cards at a time.
