realme just launched the realme C33, the company’s latest budget smartphone in India, months after the launch of C31. The phone retains the 6.5-inch HD+ LCD screen with 5MP front camera inside the notch and is powered by the  UNISOC T612 SoC with up to 4GB of RAM, but this runs Android 12 with realme UI S Edition, and comes with a 50MP rear camera along with a 0.3MP (VGA) depth sensor.

The phone has an 8.3 mm sleek design. The right-angle bezel and true unicover process design makes the back of the phone look like a whole boundless sea, with dynamic beams of light resembling water flowing in the sun, giving it a cool holiday seaside vibe, says the company.

It has a side-mounted fingerprint sensor and packs a 5000mAh battery with support for 10W charging.
