Are the Realme C100 and C100i official? Who can say, however somebody over in Thailand posted a reasonably detailed hands-on with the 2 telephones and the C100 is up on at the least one retailer.
The Realme C100 is a big and comparatively low-cost cellphone – retailer BaNANA has the 4/128GB mannequin at THB 7,000 ($215) and the 6/128GB mannequin at THB 7,500 ($$230).

At this level you’re most likely questioning what makes the C100 completely different from the likes of the Realme C85 and Narzo 90X. And for those who weren’t, we have been. A fast comparability exhibits a number of variations, most notably the sluggish charging (the C85 and 90X do 45W and 60W, respectively, which is rather more becoming of a 7,000mAh battery) and worse water resistance (the C85 and 90X have IP68/IP69K and IP65 scores, respectively). These two even have 8MP selfie cameras, however 5MP, 8MP, no matter.
You might also have been questioning – we have been – whether or not the C85 is on the market in Thailand. Certainly it’s and an 8/128GB unit prices THB 8,000. That’s THB 500 extra for two further gigs of RAM plus all the opposite benefits of the C85. It seems to be odd, however the math is obvious – C85 > C100.
