    Realme C61 Leaks Again Ahead of Official Launch

    Following the recent introduction of the Realme C63 in Indonesia, another device from the C-series, the Realme C61, has appeared on the Global Certification Forum (GCF). This indicates that the brand is preparing to release another budget-friendly smartphone.

    The smartphone was listed on the GCF with the model number RMX3939. Although the listing does not disclose the phone’s official name or specifications, previous entries in the NBTC and Indonesia Telecom databases have connected this model number to the Realme C63.

    Expected Specifications

    The C61 is anticipated to be the successor to the Realme C51, which shares many features with the Realme C53. Therefore, it is likely that the C61 will have similar specifications to the recently launched Realme C63.

    If the C61 follows the C63’s design, it might feature a 90Hz LCD display with 450 nits peak brightness, a UniSoC T612 processor coupled with a Mali G57 GPU, and Realme UI based on Android 14.

    Camera and Other Features

    In the camera department, the C61 could come with a 50MP rear sensor and an 8MP front-facing camera, along with a 5,000mAh battery supporting 45W SuperVOOC fast charging. Additionally, it might include a side-mounted fingerprint scanner and a dedicated microSD card slot, similar to the C63.

    With the C63 weighing around 190 grams, the C61 is also expected to be similarly lightweight.

    Although the exact specifications and launch date of the C61 remain unknown, its presence on the GCF hints that an official announcement might be imminent. Stay tuned for updates on the new smartphone.
