Realme C63 revealed with iPhone 15 Pro design leanings for budget price tag

Realme has updated its C series once again, having only recently announced the C65 5G. This time, the company has released the C63, which bears a striking resemblance with the Apple iPhone 15 Pro (curr. $843.29 - renewed on Amazon) from the back. Additionally, not only does the Realme C63 feature a flat frame, but it also features a side-mounted programmable button that Realme advertises as a 'Dynamic Button'.

The similarities with one of Apple's latest flagship smartphones end there, though. For example, Realme equips the Realme C63 with a Unisoc Tiger T612 chipset, as well as 6 GB or 8 GB of RAM, depending on the SKU chosen. Moreover, the handset finds itself with a 5,000 mAh battery that supports 45 W wired charging through its USB Type-C port.

On top of that, the Realme C63 has a 6.75-inch IPS display that resolves at 720p with a 90 Hz refresh rate but just 560 nits peak brightness. Furthermore, while Realme also includes a 50 MP primary camera, the Realme C63 only has an auxiliary rear-facing lens and an 8 MP front-facing camera. Thankfully, Realme pre-installs Realme UI 5.0 based on Android 14 though rather than Android 13, as is sometimes still the case with cheaper smartphones. Currently, Realme has only released the C63 in Indonesia, where it is available for IDR 1,999,000 (~$125) with 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage, or IDR 2,299,000 (~$140) with 8 GB of RAM but the same amount of storage.
