realme has launched the 5G version of the realme C63 with a completely new design and, of course, a better chipset than the 4G-only model.
The new realme C63 5G now uses a more powerful MediaTek Dimensity 6300 octa-core processor, versus the UNISOC T612 chip found on the realme C63 4G.
It also has a marginally bigger 6.67-inch IPS display with a smoother 120Hz refresh rate, albeit the resolution is still HD+. It also uses the same 8-megapixel selfie camera on top.
Still no ultra-wide camera and the main shooter was downgraded to a 32-megapixel sensor. It is joined by an unknown secondary lens, possibly a depth sensor.
The battery still has a 5,000mAh capacity, but the charging speed has significantly dropped to 10W from 45W.
Other notable features are the IP64 rating for dust and water resistance, a Rainwater Smart Touch function that lets you use the screen even if it’s wet, and a promise from realme that it will provide “4 years of lag-free use” as tested by its own laboratory.
The realme C63 5G is now listed in India for a price of INR10,999 (~Php7,500) for the 4GB/128GB, INR11,999 (~Php8,200) for the 6GB/128GB, and INR12,999 (~Php8,900) for the 8GB/128GB variant. Availability in other markets is yet to be known.
