realme launched the realme C11 in India back in July 2020 after debuting it initially in Malaysia. Later, it brought the device to other regions like Europe. Now, it looks like the company will launch a 2021 version of this device as it gets Thailand’s NBTC and India’s BIS certification.

A realme Smartphone with model number RMX3231 appears on BIS and NBTC database as noted by influencer Mukul Sharma. Here, the moniker of the device is shown as the “realme C11 2021“.

The listing shows that the device supports network connectivity up to LTE. It’s not clear what will be the change but if the name is carried over from the 2020 version, at least the design could be similar.

At times, companies launch incremental versions of a smartphone by differing the internals and if that’s the case here, expect the chipset, camera, or storage to get a bump. These are just wild guesses and hence, let’s wait for official info.

Under the hood, the device features a MediaTek Helio G35 chipset paired with a single 2GB RAM 32GB storage on the 2020 version. There is a possibility that the 2021 version might get a 3GB RAM but we will have to wait for it.
