After releasing the Realme C15 last month, Realme again went on releasing Realme C12 in Indonesia and it is set to launch in India on August 18. The Realme C series is the company’s budget line and it offers good performance and battery value.
The Realme C12 is quite similar to Realme C15 with few differences in the camera department, memory, and fast charging.
Realme C12 features a 6.5-inch HD+ LCD screen with a resolution of 720×1560 pixels. It has a waterdrop notch that holds the selfie camera. The body is made of plastic and the fingerprint sensor is on the back.
The Realme C12 comes with an octa-core MediaTek Helio P35 processor which is coupled to 3 GB RAM and 32 GB ROM which can be expanded with a microSD card. The device operates on the Realme UI which is built on Android 10 OS. Unlike in Realme C15, here, the device comes with a triple rear camera which consists of 13MP (f/2/2) main sensor, a 5 MP (f/2.4) B/W sensor, and a 2 MP (f/2.4) depth sensor. The phone at the front has an 8MP camera mounted within the waterdrop notch.
Realme C12 features a 6,000mAh battery that supports 10W charging through micro-USB. The Realme C12 comes in Marine Blue and Coral Red.
One of the major selling points of this device is the massive battery and Realme claims that it can fuel the phone on standby for more than 57 days or more than 46 hours of talk time. Realme also claims that, when the Super Power Saving Mode is activated, even a 5% battery life can run the device for more than 2 hours of talk time.
