On March 7, the Realme C55, which just emerged online, will go on sale. This information was made public by Realme’s Indonesian office, which created a promotional page on its official website and disclosed the C55’s launch and sale dates (March 8) in the Asian nation.
The online store for Realme Indonesia also has the Realme C55 available. It validates the C55’s specifications and appearance but withholds the C55’s pricing. The Helio G88 SoC will provide power for the Realme C55, which will ship with Realme UI 4.0 based on Android 13. Both 6GB/128GB and 8GB/256GB of RAM will be available.
Realme C55 features
The former will offer virtual Memory expansion of up to 6GB, while the latter will support up to 8 GB. Both models will have a dedicated microSD card slot for up to 1TB of storage expansion. The Realme C55 features a 6.72″ FullHD+ 90Hz display with a peak brightness of 680 nits and a centrally-located punch hole for its 8MP front-facing camera.
More intriguingly, however, the smartphone will include Apple’s Mini Capsule configuration, which is similar to Dynamic Island. It will provide low battery warnings, the phone’s charging status, data consumption, daily step totals, and walking distance. The last two won’t ship with them and instead will be delivered later via OTA.
The Realme C55 will have a dual camera arrangement on its back, with a 64MP camera taking center stage. Also, it will include a 5,000 mAh battery with 33W charging, which is a significant improvement over the C35’s 18W charging and a first for a C series smartphone. As Realme just declared that the majority of its C series smartphones this year would enable 33W or quicker charging, we probably won’t see any C series Realme devices charging slower than 33W in 2023.
Other notable features of the Realme C55 include a 3.5mm headphone connector, a USB-C port, and a side-mounted fingerprint reader. In addition, it will include Dirac’s audio tuning and an NFC chip.
The C55 will be 7.89mm thick and come in Sunshower and Rainy Night as color options.
Next Tuesday’s launch event, which will be live-streamed beginning at 1 PM local time, will reveal further information about the Realme C55’s Indonesian price. Although Realme’s Indian division has not yet provided any information, the C55 is also anticipated to go on sale in India soon.
