Two more Realme Note series phones to arrive this year

The initial Realme Note smartphone is scheduled for launch in the Philippines on January 23rd, with two more expected in the following months.

I saw from comments: â€œActually in the low end segment HD+ is the superior option, processing power is super limited. Next big thing is storage speeds it’s so so easy to have laggy experience at the sub $100 class.â€ https://t.co/5ognZAxH3w

Realme’s Note series is intended to fill the sub-$100 (around Rs 8,310) price range within the company’s product lineup.
It is positioned as a more budget-friendly option compared to other manufacturers’ Note series.

On X (formerly Twitter), Chase Xu, the Vice President of Realme and President of Realme Global Marketing, announced the countries where the upcoming series will be released. According to his post, the “Note” is set to launch in the Philippines, Vietnam, Thailand, Italy, Bangladesh, and Myanmar. However, India is notably absent from the list.

Although the smartphone brand has excluded India from the launch of the Note series, it has set an ambitious sales target of 10 million units for 2024. The company says it also intends to tackle common challenges associated with entry-level devices, focusing on improving quality control and providing enhanced after-sales support.
