Realme has officially introduced the Realme C75 5G in India, expanding its lineup of budget-friendly smartphones with 5G capabilities. Though it shares its name and visual design with the previously released Realme C75 LTE, already available in markets like Russia, the Indian 5G variant differs significantly in terms of hardware and performance. These differences make the new Realme C75 5G not just a variant, but a substantially more powerful device.
Realme C75 5G is an inexpensive model with characteristics that are sufficient to use the basic functions of a smartphone.
At first glance, the Realme C75 5G presents itself as a modern, well-equipped device aimed at budget-conscious users who don’t want to compromise on performance or features.

Display: The phone features a 6.67-inch IPS LCD screen with a resolution of 1604 × 720 pixels (HD+). While the resolution is modest, the 120Hz refresh rate and 625 nits of peak brightness provide a smooth and reasonably bright visual experience, especially for a phone in this price segment.
-
Performance: Under the hood, the device is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 6300 chipset—an octa-core processor clocked at 2.4 GHz, coupled with the Mali-G57 MP2 GPU. This combination offers a balanced performance for everyday tasks and moderate gaming, while enabling full 5G connectivity.

Memory & Storage: The C75 5G comes in two RAM configurations: 4 GB and 6 GB, both paired with 128 GB of internal storage. The storage is expected to be expandable via microSD, a key advantage in this price bracket.

In the camera department, the Realme C75 5G sports a 32 MP main rear sensor accompanied by a secondary auxiliary sensor, likely for depth or AI enhancements. On the front, it houses an 8 MP selfie camera, sufficient for video calls and casual selfies. Realme has also included a suite of AI-based features for photo optimization, which will appeal to social media enthusiasts.
This budget-friendly phone doesn’t skimp on durability or connectivity.
