Today, we are going to look at the Realme C12, which is not very different from the C11. This means that the new phone will be quite similar to the Realme C3 and Narzo 10A. The main differences will be in a few areas like the battery and cameras. We initially planned to give you our first impressions of both phones together, as they are almost identical. Unfortunately, Realme has been slightly delayed in shipping the higher-priced model, so today here we are just going to give you our first impressions of the Realme C12.
Realme C12 comes in a standard yellow box. This time the company has removed the case from the box of the budget phone. Apart from this, it comes with a large charger and a phone. The main feature of Realme C12 is its 6,000mAh battery. This is 1,000mAh more than the capacity found in Realme C11, due to which the C12 is comparatively thicker and heavier.
The all-plastic body feels sturdy. Realme has given a new pattern to the back of the phone. The texture helps make grip easier and catches less fingerprints. We received the Power Blue variant and the phone is also available in Power Silver.
The Realme C12 has a triple-slot tray for two Nano-SIMs and a microSD card. There’s a Micro-USB port at the bottom, a headphone jack, and a speaker. There’s a capacitive fingerprint sensor on the back, which you’ll probably need to have a long finger to reach easily.
The display is the same as what you get on the Realme C11. It’s a 6.5-inch HD+ (1,600×720) panel with a thick chin at the bottom and a waterdrop notch at the top. Colours on the display were decent for a budget phone, but brightness was a little low. Viewing angles aren’t very wide. The edges of the display seem to get dark if you change the angle of the phone even slightly.
You get the same MediaTek Helio G35 processor in the Realme C12 as the Realme C11. Thankfully, the C12 gets 3GB of RAM, so general use should be slightly faster than the C11. It gets 32GB of storage. Our experience has been good so far, but the interface certainly doesn’t feel very fast. It will be interesting to see how this camera performs when you load a lot of apps and data.
The Realme C12 runs on Realme UI 1.0, which is based on Android 10 this time. There are very few unwanted apps on the phone this time. Realme is using Google’s dialer and message app instead of its own. This is a growing trend that we are also seeing in other BBK smartphone brands like Vivo, Oppo, and OnePlus.
The camera module of the Realme C12 is similar to the C11, but instead of two sensors, it gets three. It has a 13-megapixel primary, a 2-megapixel depth sensor and a 2-megapixel macro camera lens. A 5-megapixel front camera is included for selfies and video calling. This is similar to the Realme C11. How the camera performs will be known only after testing it. You won’t have to wait long to read the review.
The Realme C15 and Realme C12 seem to be minor upgrades over the Realme C11, but are good options to fill the huge price gap between the C-series and the Realme 6-series. Realme also has the Narzo 10A, which is priced to match the new models. Its battery isn’t bigger than the new model, but it comes with a faster processor. Does the inclusion of a bigger battery in the Realme C12 make it worth the Rs. 8,999 price tag? We’ll have a clearer answer to this question once we review it thoroughly, so stay tuned to Gadgets 360.
