DESIGN

Before we get into anything deeper, it’s worth noting that the realme C15 is mostly an upgraded C11. The design is similar to C11, with its 6.5-inch HD+ Mini-drop display with a 20:9 aspect ratio. The phone’s front-facing cam can be found on the notch on the middle of the display, while at the back is the quad-camera setup and the fingerprint reader. At the left is the sim card and microSD tray, at the right is the volume and power button, and at the bottom is the headphone port, the microUSB port, a microphone hole, and the downward-firing speakers.

The realme C15 is available in two color variants, Marine Blue and Seagull Silver which have the same texture as that of the C11 but is somewhat much more gorgeous to look at that the other. Additionally, the special PH Squad box realme sent us gives it a much more appeal than the usual plain yellow box realme is known for.

HARDWARE

The realme C15 sports the same SoC as the C11, the MediaTek Helio G35. The realme C15 comes in two configurations of RAM: a 3GB variant and a 4GB variant, both do come with 64GB of internal storage, expandable up to 256 GB via microSD.

The realme C15 sports a quad-camera setup at the back, with the primary lens being the same 13-megapixel lens as the C11, a secondary 8-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens, a 2-megapixel Black and White lens, and the brand’s new 2-megapixel depth sensor which they dubbed as the retro lens.

Highlighting the realme C15 is its massive 6000 mAh battery which has an 18W fast charging capability. realme has also equipped the C15 with reverse charge technology which can your other devices via OTG.

Other features of the realme C15 include a rear-mounted fingerprint scanner and face unlock capabilities.
