Realme C65 to Launch on April 4 with Key Specs and Design Revealed

Realme is set to launch its latest smartphone, the Realme C65, on April 4th in Vietnam. The phone is expected to hit shelves in other Southeast Asian countries soon after, including Indonesia, Bangladesh, Malaysia, and the Philippines.

Realme has officially unveiled the C65's design, and it bears a striking resemblance to the popular Samsung Galaxy S22. The phone features a centered punch-hole display for the selfie camera and a flat back panel. Interestingly, the C65 will also include the "Dynamic Button" feature first seen on the Realme 12 5G, but its exact functionality remains unclear.

While Realme hasn't revealed the official specs yet, reliable tech leaker Sudhanshu Ambhore has shed some light on what to expect. The C65 is rumored to boast a 6.67-inch IPS LCD display with a smooth 90Hz refresh rate and decent 625 nits brightness. Under the hood, it will likely pack a MediaTek Helio G85 chipset, suitable for everyday tasks and casual gaming.

In terms of cameras, the C65 is expected to sport a 50MP main sensor with a flicker sensor for improved low-light photography, along with an 8MP front-facing camera for selfies and video calls.

Keeping the phone running will be a generous 5,000mAh battery with support for 45W fast charging, allowing you to quickly power up the device when needed. Security will be handled by a side-mounted fingerprint sensor, and the phone will have an IP54 rating for basic dust and water resistance.

Software-wise, the Realme C65 is expected to launch with Android 14 pre-installed, offering the latest features and security updates from Google. Connectivity options will likely include dual SIM support, a microSD card slot for expandable storage, Wi-Fi 5GHz, Bluetooth v5.0, a USB-C port for charging and data transfer, and a 3.5mm headphone jack.

The phone's dimensions are rumored to be 165.66 x 76.1 x 7.64 mm, and it will weigh approximately 185 grams. With a combination of a large display, big battery, and decent cameras, all at an affordable price point (pricing details are yet to be revealed), the Realme C65 appears to be a promising option for budget-conscious smartphone users in Southeast Asia.
