realme C53, the brand’s latest budget entry has officially launched in Malaysia.
The device sports a 6.74-inch LCD display with 90Hz refresh rate, but only has HD+ resolution—which is expected in this tier.
Despite its screen size, it is significantly thin measuring at only 7.5mm depth.
Up top is a waterdrop notch housing its 8-megapixel selfie shooter.
Powering it is a 4G-enabled octa-core chipset with up to 1.82GHz frequency. It is configured with up to 12GB dynamic RAM (6GB LPDDR4X on-board) and 125GB storage with support for up to 2TB microSD (dedicated) expansion.
At the back protrudes a dual camera system with 50-megapixel main lens and as usual, a depth sensor.
Its battery is rated at 5000mAh coupled with 33W SuperVOOC via USB-C.
With all that said, the specs even its design is closely identical to the narzo N53 that came out in India last month.
