Realme has been raining its C series smartphones every month it seems. Phones previously had a lifecycle of a year before it got replaced by a successor, but with Realme, they don’t seem to care about it anyway.

Followed by this year’s already launched Realme C11, Realme C12 and Realme C15. The company is planning to unveil their next device of the series i.e. the Realme C17 very soon.
