realme has launched the realme Note 50 in the Philippines and it’s the company’s latest budget smartphone in the new Note series. Features and highlights include a 90 Hz display, IP54 water-resistant design, dual rear cameras, 5,000 mAh battery, and more.
The realme Note 50 is a budget smartphone and holds a notable resemblance to the realme C53 which was introduced in India and other markets last year. Notably, it shares a similar display, CPU specs, cameras, and battery. However, the cameras have been downgraded, likely as a strategic move to reduce costs.
The realme Note 50 comes in two color variants – Sky Blue, and Midnight Black colors and shares a similar design trait to the realme C53. The smartphone sports a 6.74-inch IPS LCD screen with HD+ resolution and 90 Hz refresh rate and runs the realme UI T Edition which is based on Android 13.
Cameras include a dual rear setup of a 13 MP main camera and a B&W depth camera while the front side offers a 5 MP selfie camera. The realme Note 50 is powered by a 12nm UNISOC Tiger T612 octa-core SoC paired with ARM Mali-G57 Graphics, 4 GB LPDDR4X RAM, 64 GB internal storage expandable up to 2 TB via microSD card, and a 5,000 mAh battery with 10W charging.
The smartphone comes with a side-mounted fingerprint sensor and bottom-ported speaker while the connectivity options include a USB Type-C, 3.5 mm audio jack, Wi-Fi 802.11ac, Bluetooth 5.0, GPS, GLONASS, and 4G LTE with dual SIM and VoLTE support.
