Realme has unveiled the Narzo 50A and 50i, two of the year's cheapest smartphones. The two phones have the same screen but different chipsets, batteries, and primary cameras. There will most likely be a worldwide rollout shortly.
Design and Display Overview
Realme Narzo 50A and 50i make their debut with the Band 2 and Smart TV Neo 32. The Realme Narzo 50A and 50i include a 6.5-inch LCD with HD+ quality and a waterdrop notch for the front camera. The rear design, however, differs between the two phones. The Narzo 50A features a considerably bigger primary camera cutout with a fingerprint sensor, while the 50i has a smaller rectangular island. Both phones feature a dual-tone design on top of a textured back panel.
Internals and Storage Overview
A MediaTek Helio G85 SoC powers the Narzo 50A with 4GB of RAM and 64GB/128GB of storage that can be extended using microSD cards. The Narzo 50i is restricted to the Unisoc SC9863A chipset, 2/4GB RAM, and 32/64GB storage. The Narzo 50A runs regular Android 11, while the 50i runs Android 11 Go Edition with Realme UI.
Cameras Overview
The Narzo 50A is equipped with Samsung's JN1 50MP primary camera, a 2MP portrait lens, and a 2MP macro sensor. The selfie camera has an 8MP sensor. The 50i features a single 8MP camera on the back and a 5MP front camera.
Battery and Pricing Overview
The Narzo 50A also has a larger 6,000 mAh battery with 18W fast charging, while the 5oi only has a 5,000 mAh cell with no fast charging. The former features a USB C port, whereas the latter has a MicroUSB port. The Realme Narzo 50A is priced at $156 and will be available in Oxygen Green and Oxygen Blue.
