Currently, the Realme 8 5G is one of the cheapest phones in India starting at Rs 13,999. Moving forward, all Realme phones above Rs 15,000 mark will be coming with 5G capabilities. This isn’t a surprising move as most smartphones from Realme such as the Realme Narzo 30 5G, Narzo 30 Pro, Realme X7 mid-range phones are powered by 5G chipsets from MediaTek processors.

5G phone under Rs 10,000

Realme has been pretty aggressive with its 5G smartphones strategy in India and the company has a couple of 5G phones under Rs 15,000 in India. Moving forward, the company is also said to bring 5G capabilities under Rs 10,000 in India 一 which will set a record when the phone launches. As of today, Realme’s C series smartphones are the ones priced under Rs 10,000 in and we expect the coming generation of Realme C series or in fact, some other new series phones under Rs 10,000 to pack in 5G.

This isn’t the first time we’re hearing about this, as in an exclusive conversation with TechRadar India, Madhav Sheth revealed that they want to pursue the title of having the cheapest 5G phones in India.
