Realme C100

The Realme C100 has officially launched in Pakistan and is PTA-approved, released on 7 September 2026. The 8GB + 256GB variant is priced at Rs. 72,999. It features a 6.8-inch 120Hz display, MediaTek T7250 chipset, 50MP camera, and a massive 8000mAh battery with 45W SUPERVOOC charging — though notably, it skips 5G support.

Display

• 6.8-inch LCD screen — large enough for comfortable video and browsing use
• 720 x 1570 pixels (~254 ppi) — basic HD+ resolution, not Full HD+
• 120Hz refresh rate — smoother scrolling and animations than standard 60Hz panels
• Panda@MN228 protection — adds a layer of scratch resistance

The screen size and 120Hz refresh rate make everyday use feel fluid, but the HD+ resolution keeps detail levels behind rivals with Full HD+ or AMOLED panels at a similar price.

Processor

• MediaTek T7250 chipset — an 8-core processor built for everyday multitasking
• Arm Mali-G57 GPU (850MHz) — handles casual and mid-range gaming
• AnTuTu score of roughly 402,000 — places it firmly in budget-performance territory
• PUBG Mobile runs at 60FPS on supported settings

The T7250 is suited to social media, streaming, and light-to-moderate gaming rather than heavy titles at max settings. It's a practical chip for daily use, not a gaming-first one.

RAM and Storage

• 6GB + 128GB, 8GB + 128GB 
• eMMC 5.1 storage — slower than the UFS storage found on some competitors
• Memory card slot supported — for users who need extra space beyond onboard storage

The 8GB + 128GB configuration is the better long-term pick if storage headroom matters, since eMMC 5.1 read/write speeds are already a step behind UFS-based rivals.

Camera

• 50MP main camera — f/1.8 aperture, 76° field of view, autofocus supported
• Modes include Photo, Video, Portrait, Night, Pro, Panorama, Slo-Mo, and Dual-view video
• Rear video recording up to 1080p @ 30fps
• 5MP selfie camera — f/2.2 aperture, 720p video recording

The 50MP main sensor covers daylight and casual photography well, but there's no ultrawide or telephoto lens, and the 5MP front camera is on the lower end for selfies and video calls.

Battery

• 8000mAh Li-Ion battery — well above the 5000mAh standard on most phones this price
• 45W SUPERVOOC charging — a meaningful upgrade over basic 10-18W charging
• No wireless charging support

Battery life is the C100's strongest selling point — an 8000mAh cell should comfortably stretch across a full day and beyond even with heavy use, with 45W charging keeping downtime manageable.

Software

• Realme UI built on Android 16 — a recent software base at launch
• Side-mounted fingerprint sensor for unlocking
• Standard sensors: proximity, ambient light, e-compass, accelerometer, gyroscope

Running on Android 16 out of the box means the C100 starts with current software, though how many future OS updates it receives hasn't been confirmed by Realme.

SIM and Connectivity

• Nano-SIM support, GSM/WCDMA/LTE network technology
• No 5G support — sticks to 4G LTE and 3G/2G fallback bands
• Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac) — no Wi-Fi 6
• Bluetooth 5.2 with Low Energy support
• GPS, GLONASS, BDS, and Galileo positioning
• USB Type-C, FM Radio, and a 3.5mm headphone jack
• No NFC, no infrared port

The lack of 5G is the biggest connectivity gap here, especially as more budget phones in this range add it. The 3.5mm jack and Hi-Res audio support are a plus for users who prefer wired headphones.

Design and Build

• Dimensions: 166.48 x 78.23 x 8.78 mm; Weight: 219g
• IP68/IP69K rating — dust-tight and water-resistant, rated for high-pressure water jets and up to 6m submersion for 30 minutes
• Available in Glory White, Victory Purple, and Endurance Brown

The IP68/IP69K rating is unusually strong for this price bracket, giving it durability that most budget phones don't offer. At 219g, it's on the heavier side, largely due to the 8000mAh battery.

Final Words

The Realme C100 is built around three strengths: exceptional battery life, a smooth 120Hz display, and industrial-grade water and dust resistance — all backed by an official Pakistani launch with PTA approval already in place.
