Recently, Realme C63 5G made its debut in India. The device is the 5G version of Realme C65 that was released a month ago.

The 4G-only model is priced at ₹8,999 for the sole 4GB + 128GB variant. On the other hand, the 5G version is offered in 4GB + 128GB, 6GB + 128GB, and 8GB + 128GB variants priced at ₹10,999, ₹11,999, and 12,999, respectively.

In our opinion, one should opt for the version with at least 6GB RAM if they intend to buy Realme C63 5G. This makes their purchase ₹3,000 more expensive than the LTE-only Realme C63.

So what do you get for paying a bit more? Let’s find out below.

1. Different Design

Though Realme C63 and Realme C63 5G share the name, they look different from each other. Although both of them have a flat frame, their camera module and button placements are dissimilar.

The 4G variant has an iPhone-like camera placement. On the other hand, the 5G version’s camera island is inspired by the Huawei Mate 20 Pro.

The LTE model comes in Leather Blue and Jade Green color variants as opposed to Starry Gold and Forest Green variants of the 5G model.

2. Faster Chip

The regular Realme C63 houses a 12nm Unisoc T612 chipset. Whereas the Realme C63 5G is powered by a 6nm MediaTek Dimensity 6300 SoC.

The MediaTek chip inside the 5G variant is more powerful. At the same time, it offers a better battery life, at least on paper.

This Dimensity 6300 chip was just announced in April and debuted inside the Realme C65 5G. While the Unisoc T612  was unveiled in 2022 and is found in a plethora of budget 4G smartphones, which sit just below entry-level 5G handsets.

3. Slower Charging

Both Realme C63 and Realme C63 5G are backed by an identical 5,000mAh battery. However, their charging speeds are different.

Despite being more expensive, the 5G variant is limited to standard 10W charging. Whereas the 4G version supports  45W SuperVOOC fast charging.

4. Better Display

The LTE-only Realme C63 sports a 6.7-inch HD+ (1600 x 720 pixels) display featuring a dewdrop notch. This LCD panel supports up to a 90Hz refresh rate, a 180Hz touch sampling rate, and 560 nits peak brightness level.

On the other hand, the Relam C63 5G arrives with a slightly smaller 6.67-inch centered punch-hole HD+ (1604 x 720 pixels) display. This LCD screen offers up to 625 nits peak brightness level, a 120Hz refresh rate, and a 240Hz touch sampling rate.

This means the display on the Realme C63 5G is smoother, brighter, and looks modern.

5. Lower Resolution Camera

Interestingly, the Realme C63 5G comes with a 32MP rear camera. This sensor is usually found on the front of mid-rangers.

While the 4G-only Realme C63 sports a standard 50MP main camera. As for selfies, both phones use an 8MP snapper.
