Realme C2 Review in Hindi, Review of Realme C2
Realme C2 design
Most budget smartphones are boring to look at. To keep prices low and performance good, handset manufacturing companies usually do not give priority to design. But this is not the case at all with Realme C2 as it is an attractive smartphone. Like other smartphones in the budget segment, Realme C2 is also made of plastic, but the finish on the back panel is unique.
Realme Has used geometric diamond-cut pattern on the back panel of the phone. You can see it on our Diamond Blue review unit. The patterns emerge when light falls on the back of the phone, giving it a premium look. Due to the finish, fingerprints do not fall easily on the back panel.
Two rear cameras with single-LED flash are provided on the back of the phone. Realme logo will be found at the bottom on the back panel of the phone. Realme C2 has a larger display and the selfie camera has got a place in the waterdrop notch. Our review unit came with a screen protector already installed. We found that the curved frame of the Realme C2 makes the phone fit easily in the hand.
The power button has been placed on the right side of the phone, the hand can easily reach the button. On the other hand, the volume button is on the left side of the phone. The SIM tray is located right above the volume buttons.
The bottom part of Realme C2 has a micro-USB port, loudspeaker and primary microphone while there is nothing on the top part of the phone. To reduce the cost of the phone, like Realme C1, Realme C2 also does not have a fingerprint sensor. We found that the build quality of Realme C2 is good and there were no scratches on the phone during the review.

Support for themes is also included and you can download them from the Theme Store app. The App Market is another alternative to the Google Play Store and is also pre-installed, but we found it to send spammy notifications throughout the day. Realme C2 also has a Game Center app where you will get only games.

Realme C2 performance, battery life and camera
The performance of Realme C2 is acceptable in this price segment, MediaTek Helio P22 processor has been used in the phone. We didn’t face any issues while launching apps and scrolling through menus, but the phone slowed down a bit when we pulled down the notification panel.
We also tried multitasking on this phone but sometimes the phone takes some time to load heavy apps. Of course, fingerprint sensor is not provided in the phone but it is equipped with face unlock feature. This smartphone unlocks the phone quickly.
We played PUBG Mobile on low settings, with graphics set to smooth and frame rate set to medium. The gameplay was not smooth and it was running intermittently. We changed the frame rate to low which made a slight difference in the gameplay but it still wasn’t smooth. To bring life to Realme C2, a 4,000 mAh battery has been provided, the battery life of the phone is good.
The phone lasted 20 hours and 29 minutes in our HD video loop test. We used WhatsApp on the phone, used Google Maps for navigation for two hours and ran some benchmarks. The charger that comes with the phone takes more than 2 hours to charge the battery.
Realme C2 has dual rear camera setup. The primary sensor is 13 megapixels. Its aperture is F/2.2. Along with this, a 2 megapixel sensor with F/2.4 aperture will work in Jugalbandi. For selfie, the handset has a 5 megapixel sensor with F/2.0 aperture. The camera app is similar to what we have seen before on Realme smartphones. It has buttons for HDR, Chroma Boost, Filter and Flash.
It also has Pano, Expert, Time-lapse and Slo-mo modes. The camera app offers 2x digital zoom support. Beautification mode is provided in the phone with the help of which you can set the amount of beautification. We liked the photos taken with the Realme C2 in daylight. The focus in the photos was good and details were also captured well.
Macro shots turned out better than we expected and the phone maintains proper distance between the subject and the background. The phone locks focus quickly and there were no issues with exposure even when shooting on macro mode. Details were captured well in portrait shots. The pictures taken with the phone in low light did not look very good. There was no sharpness in the phone and grains were visible when zoomed.
Details were captured well in selfies and the quality is also good at this price. Realme C2 also has HDR support for the front camera. The rear camera is capable of making 1080p resolution video, while the selfie camera is capable of making 720p resolution video.
our decision
At a starting price of Rs 5,999 realme c2 There’s also powerful hardware, good battery life, and up-to-date software. We have generally seen smartphones with weak processors and outdated software in this price range. The camera is one aspect of this phone that needs improvement but the quality is decent at this price.
If you buy the base variant of Realme C2, then let us tell you that it can prove to be a profitable deal. If you are thinking of buying the 3 GB RAM variant of Realme C2 and if you can increase your budget a little then Redmi 7 Or Nokia 5.1 Plus ,review) can also prove to be a great option for you. These smartphones are also available at similar prices but if compared, they come with better hardware.
