If your primary concern is the budget then you can take a look at realme C3.

The realme C3 is the first of realme’s devices to be equipped with MediaTek Helio G70, a gaming-centric processor installed on an entry-level device.

While it is positioned to be an entry-level smartphone, it packs numerous features that are present in midrange devices as well.

Unboxing

The yellow brand color is now prominent with realme, which makes the brand stand out. Here’s what you can find in the retail box of the realme c3.

Take note that realme did not include a headset already.

Camera

Aside from positioning this entry-level Android smartphone, the cameras installed are respectable. The rear camera sports a 12MP F/1.8 shooter plus two more for “macro” and blurring the background.

Here are the raw photos I took using the rear camera.

The front camera with 5MP with F/2.4 and AI features are also respectable. Here are a few of my selfie shots.

I like it that the front camera is wide enough that it has enough distance from the camera to your face.
