Realme C01

Realme C01 is part of the new lineup that likely ranks below their Note family. This phone isn’t the same as the Realme C1 (2018), so don’t get these two confused. This model was certified in the UAE and even in Malaysia. And it leaked later on a retail site with specs and renders. They are obviously trying to steal the iPhone 18’s look with this one. Realme C01 is built around a 6.8” IPS screen. That’s a massive panel with a 120Hz refresh rate, though the resolution is only HD+ 720. There’s a notch on it. They installed a 5MP selfie snapper on the Realme C01. This is actually a 900-nit bright LCD. It’s not much of a performer with its 4GB RAM. That capacity is barely enough for multitasking. Its default OS is Android 16 Realme UI 7, so the ROM alone would use up most of the C01’s 64GB storage. Sadly, the back camera is 8MP only. Realme C01 is actually a 4G LTE device, not 5G, with a Unisoc T7250 SoC at 1.8GHz. That’s a weak chip, only meant for light tasks. They’ve put a 6500mAh cell inside this newcomer that recharges via a 15W adapter. An IP64 rating makes it splashproof, and you get a side fingerprint reader. This handset is slower than the Samsung Galaxy A07, yet it somehow costs more. We’ll confirm the price once again at launch as we update the spec sheet below.
