Realme C73 5G has gone official, adding a new contender to the company’s growing lineup of budget 5G phones. It delivers solid performance with a Dimensity 6300 chip, not to forget its 6.67” Eye Comfort display that peaks at a 120Hz refresh rate. This is everything you need to know about Realme C73 5G.


Realme C73 has launched in the Indian market first, but it’s expected to land in more countries soon. Its design is almost the same as the high-end Realme C75 that arrived in the global market earlier. We have a triple-lens setup on a boxy camera layout and a 7.94mm full flat design.

The screen on the front has a decent scale and a 120Hz Eye Comfort refresh rate. It’s a typical (HD+) IPS LCD at a 6.67” diagonal size. The screen might be run-of-the-mill, but you can expect a decent performance out of it with the phone’s dedicated Dimensity 6300 chip and a Mali G57 GPU.


There’s only 4 GB of physical RAM here, which the phone virtually expands by up to 8 GB using a chunk of storage. The room allowed for files and apps is also limited to 128 GB, but this new Realme budget mobile brings an SD card slot to extend your storage on the go. 

Realme C73 5G has quite a decent battery backup with a 6000mAh capacity. There’s only 15W charging, so the top-ups might be slow. At least, Realme guarantees ~46 hours of calling and ~15 hours of YouTube video playback on a single charge. With light usage, it might even last you one and a half days.  


Like the rest of the devices in the family, Realme C73 5G has durability features up to wazoo with shock, water, and dust resistance. There’s an IP64 rating that saves it from minor splashes and dust ingress, and the phone is certified SGS (3-star) shock-resistant to protect it from minor drops.

Realme C73 5G also has a 300% volume boost, so the audio-visual experience should be up to the mark. It has an 8MP camera on the front and a 32MP Main sensor on the back. This device has three color options: Crystal Purple, Jade Green, and Onyx Black. Released at around $123 (~PKR 34,500), the Realme C73 5G offers incredible value, especially considering how rare 5G support is at this price point.
