Upgrading from a feature phone to a smartphone can be an exciting prospect. However, while making this upgrade, the price point of the smartphone could be out of reach at times. In such cases, exchange offers and discounts can play a key role and this is why you need to ensure that you are getting the best deal when making your purchase. Currently, one of the most popular affordable smartphones on Flipkart is Realme C30, which offers an excellent all-around package for the money. The handset comes with a suitcase design, a powerful UniSOC T612 SoC, a 6.5-inch HD+ display, and a massive 5000mAh battery. With the dedicated microSD card, you can expand your storage up to 1TB.
That’s not all, this smartphone has an 8MP AI rear camera for those clear and crisp shots, a 5MP selfie camera for all your video calling needs, 32GB of internal memory with UFS 2.2 storage technology, and up to 3GB of RAM to handle all your daily tasks such as messaging, emailing etc.
As the pricing of this smartphone starts at Rs 7,499, it could be just out of reach for some consumers. However, Flipkart and Airtel have joined hands to offer the phone at a more affordable price point exclusively to Airtel prepaid customers. Check out the deal details below.
