Realme’s budget-friendly C71, set to succeed the C61, has surfaced on Geekbench with the Unisoc T7250 SoC, 6GB RAM, and Android 15 with Realme UI. Certified by Malaysia’s SIRIM with 45W charging, it’s a modest upgrade targeting the same price range.
Spotted on Geekbench under model RMX5303, the C71 is powered by the Unisoc T7250 SoC (previously T615), a 4G-only octa-core chip with two 1.82GHz Cortex-A75 and six 1.61GHz Cortex-A55 cores. Scoring 438 single-core and 1455 multi-core, its performance aligns with the C61’s Unisoc T612, suggesting minimal gains. The T612 averages 422 in single-core and 1509 in multi-core tests, per NanoReview, making the C71’s performance roughly comparable overall.
The C71 packs 6GB RAM, matching its predecessor, and runs Android 15, a step up from the C61’s Android 14. Malaysia’s SIRIM certification confirms the RMX5303 model and 45W fast charging, a significant jump from the C61’s 15W, though it likely retains a 5,000mAh battery. Additional listings on NBTC and TDRA hint at a broader Southeast Asian and Middle Eastern release.
Expected to mirror the C61’s HD+ 90Hz IPS LCD, 32MP main sensor, and 5MP, selfie shooter, the C71 may offer 4GB/8GB RAM variants and 64GB/128GB storage. Although the predecessor looks modern with a flat design and two cutouts inside the rectangular camera housing for lenses, the front sticks to a waterdrop-style notch rather than a punch-hole cutout for the selfie camera. The C71’s design remains under wraps for now, so stay tuned for more details.
The C71 targets budget buyers in markets like India. Will the C71’s faster charging and Android 15 make it a compelling upgrade, or does its dated chip hold it back? More details should emerge soon as Realme finalizes its launch, likely by mid-2025.
