Realme C1 (2019) - User Reviews

  • It can play pubg at ULTRA HDR graphics....

  • Helio p22 is worse than sd450 or sd439

  • Stop misleading Miui is far better than color os one ui and emui. It's not as heavy as you think. It's is only beated with stock (or near like sony's os oxygen os...) android

  • It can play pubg at low settings

  • I made a mistake with names lol. I meant to recommend C2, not C1 2019. Also, I'm not sure if Galaxy A10 has better performance than C2 because I couldn't find a video of C2 playing PUBG on HD with Medium or High frame rate, which Galaxy A10 can. But I know other Helio P22 phones that are capable of it. So it's possible C2's performance rivals A10. If it can, then: Realme 3 > C2 > Galaxy A10 > C1 (2019) > Vivo Y91C/Y91i > Oppo A1k > Redmi 7A

  • Asus L2 is not recommended. It has low battery and weak chipset, so performance is also bad. I say go with: Samsung Galaxy A10 for performance. Realme C1 (2019) for battery + good performance. I don't think Redmi 7A will be better than these two phones because: 1. Xiaomi phones have MIUI, which is a heavy OS, so its battery timing will be less than C1 (2019) for sure and maybe aAsus L2 is not recommended. It has low battery and weak chipset, so performance is also bad. I say go with: Samsung Galaxy A10 for performance. Realme C1 (2019) for battery + good perfornance. I don't think Redmi 7A will be better than these two phones because: 1. It'll have MIUI, which is a heavy OS & will drain more battery. So its battery timing will be less than C1 (2019) & about same as Galaxy A10. Just like Redmi Note 7. 2. There will be more burden on its chipset as well, because it has to perform unnecessary processes of MIUI, so its performance will be at best equal to C1 (2019) or lower. Same is the case with Redmi Note 7, which has a powerful chipset SD660 but its actual performance is equal to SD636. 3. Majority of Xiaomi phones have poor quality and don't last long. Redmi Note 7 heats up easily compared to its competitors, such as Realme 3 & Asus ZenFone Max Pro M2. Screen problem among other issues is also frequently reported in Redmi Note 7, even though it's one of Xiaomi's best selling phones till date. 4. MIUI shows ads. Which uses internet, battery & place burden on chipset - as your phone monitors and collects your activity/searches and sends it back to database to show you ads that are relevant to you.

  • If Realme 3 is in your budget, I highly recommend it. Can't recommend Redmi 7A as it's not out yet. Realme C1 (2019) & C2 are almost identical in terms of use. I think C1 (2019) is better due to 12nm chipset, which means it is more battery efficient than C2. Samsung Galaxy A10 is also a good phone. It has smaller battery than Realme C1 (2019) but it's still good enough, especially since it can play PUBG in high graphics smoothly.

  • I am a bit confused. Can anyone kindly assist with honest opinion in comparison of Asus L2 with RealmeC2, C1 & Redmi 7A(to be launched) as to which one to buy and I want to buy the best phone among these phones. I can wait till June'19 please advice

  • yes. also on a3s

  • YES. :( unless you root it

  • Since there is no different in spec. Betwee oppo A3s (2gb RAM) with realme c1. Is it posibble flashing /using oppo a3s firmware on realme c1.

  • I heard that Apps and Games can't be transferred to SD card in realme C1, Is that true??

  • this is my phone

  • this phone supports dual volte...so you can use two jio sims....please try

  • Can i use both of jio sim

  • Nice idea, only rebranding year and more space, smart brain. I'm still waiting 2020 version with 4/46gb

  • Where from this phone

  • Phone is awesome

  • yes and also front camera is different- 8mp

  • the spec is the same as realme 2 except the fingerprint

  • and if you think your asus phone( m1 or m2) is better deal , i don't care as i don't like stock android ..and this is my personal opinion...

  • what i mean is it depends on a person's preference ...for example some people like stock android and some people like miui, color os blah blah etc...for your info realme pro 2 was also available at a Rs 1000 discount until few days back...so its not just asus who sells at a cheap price..not very one is interested in asus max pro m1 because of stock android...people wants features like built in applock, password protection, clone apps, 3 finger screen shot, screen recording etc to name a few.....you can get these in stock android but u have to install separate apps for this which in turn eats ram and memory.....as for samsung m10 or m20 i don't give a **** and if you think realme phones are not getting regular updates you are wrong as realme is a separate company from oppo and provide regular security updates and is getting pie very soon...

  • not opinion, these are facts!

  • well that,s your opinion...

  • you telling stories . . . INR 13k is 53% more expensive than 8,5k another price-category as well (under and over 10k). and you will get not more than 20% gain in performance. SD636 is an SD660 with lower clock, but even that's not the case here. and your price indication isn't correct as well Max Pro M2 has started at Rs 11990 on ASUS OMG Days sale, and the next sale coming for sure. But I think this time Max Pro M1 is the unbeatable champion, as mentioned Galaxy M20 performance at M10 price. lol Just check specs and prices.

  • why should some one buy Asus Zenfone Max Pro (M1) when Asus ZenFone Max Pro M2 is already in the market?...very soon Asus Zenfone Max Pro (M1) is going to discontinued. which means Asus ZenFone Max Pro M2 vs realme 2 pro Asus ZenFone Max Pro M2-3GB/32GB is Rs 12999 realme 2 pro for 4GB/64GB is Rs 12990

  • Did anyone compare this phone with oppo a3s? This c1 is just oppo a3s but cheaper. lol

  • in old version realme c1 we have 2gb ram 16gb rom but in realme c1 (2019) we get 2gb ram 32gb rom @7499 inr & 3gb ram 32 gb rom @8499 exclusively on flipkart.com e commerce website india

  • correct

  • Nobody has to go for C1 nor for m10 on Amazon, better stay on Flipkart and go for ASUS Zenfone Max Pro M1 at C1 price (for 3 - 32 GB version) you will get a much better phone with more powerfull Snapdragon 636 SoC, Full HD+ display, 5000mAh battery and so one . . . better (gaming!) performance than Galaxy M20 at the price of an M10! Just compare them. Sammy (and Realme as well) has no chance, only fans will buying this very expensive things.

  • What's the difference between thin and the old realme c1?

  • Because realme c1 is better

  • Who will buy Realme C1 2019 on tlipcart when samsung m10 is coming at similar price on same day on amazon. samsung m10 has netter camera specs and known brand. better mobile deals will be on amazon from now on.

  • Cheaper by 5 euros??? Dont get me wrong but 5 euros is nothing. Thats difference matters maybe for homeless and people who live from one wages to another.

  • The 2019 version has a variant that has 3gb 32gb, just like the redmi 6. But is cheaper and the battery on this is insane.

  • Under 5" with tiny bezels are perfect.

  • would be good phone if screen size would be 5.8" and bezels not bigger, but same.

  • Price is perfect but micro USB along with SD4550 not. And 2GB ram is also not enough maaybe for a go edition of android. At least battery is awesome.
