Realme‘s CEO Madhav Sheth has taken to Twitter to announce that the company’s budget series – Realme C series smartphones now has over 7.5 million users in India alone. This is a huge feat for a budget series which first made its entry in September 2018 when the Realme C1 was launched.
The CEO also hinted that the brand is looking to expand the line in India with the launch of a new model. Although the Realme exec is yet to mention the name of the upcoming model, it is believed to be the Realme C11. The C11 has already been launched in Malaysia.

Furthermore, Realme Mobiles have shared two teaser posters on its Twitter page which also confirm the company will be launching an entry-level C series model. The two separate teasers utilise a feature phone with a sketch which suggests a bigger display. We can guess this also refers to the C11 which starts at RM 429 (~$100) in Malaysia.
The C11 features a 6.5-inch IPS LCD panel with a waterdrop notch design. The display utilises the 20:9 aspect ratio display and has an HD+ resolution of 720 x 1600 pixels and 88.7% screen-to-body ratio.
The model is powered by a MediaTek Helio G35 SoC with processing speeds of up to 2.3GHz paired with 2 GB of RAM. The phone has an internal storage of 32 GB and a microSD card slot for additional storage. It is preinstalled with Android 10 OS and Realme UI.
