Realme C17

The Realme C17 marked a major turning point for Realme's C-series in Bangladesh, debuting as the first in the line to combine a smooth 90Hz punch-hole display, generous 6GB RAM, and 128GB UFS 2.1 storage in the sub-16K price range. Designed with a stylish cat's eye reflection finish inspired by sparkling gemstones, measuring 164.1 x 75.5 x 8.9 mm and weighing just 188 grams, the handset comes in Navy Blue and Lake Green with splash-resistant sealing. Dominating the front is an expansive 6.5-inch HD+ (720 x 1600 pixels) IPS LCD punch-hole display boasting an 82.33% screen-to-body ratio, a fluid 90Hz refresh rate, 120Hz touch sampling rate, 270 ppi pixel density, up to 600 nits peak brightness, and Corning Gorilla Glass 3 protection. Under the hood, it is powered by Qualcomm's efficient 11nm Snapdragon 460 octa-core processor (4x1.8 GHz Kryo 240 & 4x1.8 GHz Kryo 240) paired with an Adreno 610 GPU, coupled with 6GB of LPDDR4X RAM and 128GB of high-speed UFS 2.1 internal storage, expandable up to 256GB via a dedicated 3-card microSD slot. Mobile photography is driven by an AI quad rear camera array headlined by a 13MP primary sensor (f/2.2) with PDAF and Super NightScape, an 8MP 119-degree ultrawide lens, a 2MP dedicated macro lens (4cm focus), and a 2MP portrait depth sensor, complemented by an 8MP in-display front selfie camera. Powered by a heavy-duty 5000 mAh battery with 18W wired Quick Charge and reverse wired charging capability over USB Type-C, a rapid rear-mounted physical fingerprint scanner, a 3.5mm headphone jack, FM Radio, dual-band Wi-Fi 5, and Realme UI based on Android 10, the Realme C17 stands out as a balanced, high-memory budget smartphone.
