According to our sources, the Realme C2 will won’t be arriving with major upgrades. The phone will share most of its features with the Realme C1 (2019), except for the processor and the front camera. The device will be powered by a MediaTek Helio P22 processor, as opposed to the Snapdragon 450 chipset powering its predecessor. On the front, the handset will sport an 8-megapixel shooter, as compared to the 5MP on the Realme C1.

As for the other specs, the Realme C2 will feature a waterdrop-style notch above the screen, but we don’t have the exact screen size at the moment. The phone will come with two primary cameras at the rear. The setup will comprise a 13-megapixel main sensor, accompanied by a 2-megapixel secondary shooter. Our sources also suggest that the handset will boot ColorOS 6.0 out of the box, and will be powered by a battery featuring higher capacity than 4,000mAh. We expect it to be a 4,230 power cell.
