Realme C30 is now officially launched in Nepal. The budget smartphone from the company has been released just after the release of its mid-range smartphone, Realme 9 Pro. Realme also recently launched another smartphone Realme Narzo 50A Prime.
Well, Realme has really been active this season by launching one smartphone after another. The latest release is also a toned-down version of Realme C31, which was released about a month ago.
Realme C30 is a budget phone with some basic features. The phone comes with a unique design, which looks different but may not be everyone’s cup of tea. The phone has a basic display, but the touch sampling rate on the phone is appreciable. Similarly, the battery backup on the phone is also good and should provide enough power for the users to go through the day. The three-card slot is also a plus point for those who want to expand the cell phone’s memory.
Let’s get into the details of the Realme C30.

Design and display
Realme C30 comes with a glass front, plastic back and a plastic frame build. The phone has a unique suitcase design pattern on the back. Despite having a unique design, it may not appeal to everyone. The back panel also houses a single large camera sensor in a square-shaped camera module. The phone has flat edges and round corners, which is seen more frequently these days.
The phone is about 8.50mm thick and weighs around 182 grams. It is available in lake blue and bamboo green colour options.
On the front of the Realme C30 is a 6.50-inch IPS LCD display offering a resolution of 720*1,600 pixels and 270 PPI density. The screen covers 88.70 per cent of the space of the body, which is decent enough for viewing media. It can achieve a peak brightness of up to 400 nits.
Camera
Realme C30 has a single camera on the back and the front as well. The back panel holds an 8MP camera with an aperture of f/2.20 and HDR feature. On the front is a 5MP selfie camera with an aperture of f/2.0 and an auto-focus feature. The camera modes on the phone include beauty, filter, HDR, panoramic view, portrait, timelapse, expert and super night.
For the video recording option, the main camera can record up to 1080p resolution at 30fps while the front camera is capable of recording up to 720p resolution at 30fps.
Performance and storage
Realme C30 runs on RealmeUI Go based on Android 11. The phone is powered by Unisoc Tiger T612 (12nm) chipset and the graphics on the phone are handled by Mali- G57.
The phone comes with multiple storage options. The phone is available in 2GB, 3GB and 4GB RAM options with 32GB and 64GB internal storage. The storage can be further expanded by up to 1TB with a microSD card. The phone has a dedicated slot for the card.
Battery life, connectivity and others
Realme C30 has a 5,000mAh non-removable li-po battery backup. Since high graphical games that drain a lot of power are unlikely to be supported by the device, the power should be enough to last for days. Also, if you find yourself out of power, enabling ultra saving mode with only five per cent battery power can provide you:
- 1.5 hours of chat
- 4 hours of Spotify
- 2.3 hours of call
- 45.3 hours of standby time
The phone does not support fast charging and can be charged with a 10W charger, which is included in the box.
Realme C30 supports dual sims with 4G network connectivity. The phone does not support dual-band wifi and is limited to 2.4GHz only. The Bluetooth 5.0 on the phone can be used for wireless pairing with other devices while the micro-USB 2.0 can be used for charging and wired connection. The phone has a single speaker at the bottom and also has a 3.5mm headphone jack.
The price of Realme C30 is Rs 13,499 for 2/32GB, Rs 14,499 for 3/32GB and Rs 15,499 for 4/64GB variant.s
