Earlier this year, in the month of May, Realme announced its sub-brand Dizo as a TechLife ecosystem brand for AIoT devices. Now, the new brand has shared a teaser that hints that the company is gearing up to launch a mobile phone.

The poster shared by Dizo teases a mobile phone and not an AIoT device. Note that the phone isn’t clearly visible but a bit of editing reveals that it’s a feature phone with a circular island on the back panel for housing the camera module.

Earlier, an FCC listing had revealed two feature phones from the brand — Dizo Star 500 and Dizo Star 300. The Dizo Star 500 is expected to come with Dual SIM support, 2G connectivity, a microSD card slot, and a 1,830mAh battery.

Both these phones would carry the class T-9 Numpad without any selfie camera. The Dizo Star 500 will reportedly feature a larger screen compared to the Dizo Star 300. Other key specifications such as processor maker, camera specs, and operating system remain unclear but we expect to know more about them pretty soon.

Recently, Dizo showcased a few of its products in the Indian market, including ultra-affordable true-wireless earphones, wireless earphones with neckband style design, a trimmer, hairdryer, and more. Realme has also revealed that the Dizo sub-brand plans to launch around 100 products this year.

We expect the company to reveal more information about the product in question in the coming days. Since the promotion campaign has started, the device could be officially launched in a couple of weeks.

Realme recently announced the expansion of its TechLife ecosystem with the addition of a new partnering brand named DIZO. The India-based brand will apparently be promoted as a sub-brand of the Realme brand to leverage its popularity.

Some of the products that would be unveiled under the DIZO sub-brand have now appeared online. The company will delve into the phone market with the planned release of two feature phones. The phones dubbed DIZO Star 500 and Star 300 have now appeared in real skin via their listing at FCC.

The images show that the Star 500 will have a slightly larger screen even though the two models will each have a physical keyboard under the screen. The phone will come with support for 2G connectivity only as well as dual-SIM support. It equally packs a single camera with an LED flash underneath which we believe will also function as a flashlight. The phone will be powered by a 1,830mAH battery. There will also be a microSD slot onboard.

On its part, the DIZO Star 300 packs a bigger 2500mAh removable battery. It also has dual-SIM card slots as well as a single camera and flash at the back. One notable feature is the prominent loudspeaker fused with the camera module at the back. The phone has a microSD slot too.

Recently, two TWS earbuds and a smartwatch that would be released under the DIZO brand were listed by online retailer Shopee Vietnam. The listing shows the products were basically rebadged Realme products. We also expect the brand to release a Bluetooth speaker and a robot vacuum cleaner, going by a previous teaser.
