Realme fuses 'power and style' to launch latest devices across Pakistan
Realme, an emerging smartphone brand that specialises in providing high quality smartphones, recently unveiled its line-up of devices for the Pakistani market: the Realme 2 Pro and Realme C1.
Designed with today’s youth in mind, Realme’s tagline, ‘Proud to Be Young’, is focused on revolutionizing the smartphone for the younger generation, combining great performance with contemporary style.
Realme is fully dedicated to addressing the needs of the youth. The brand has already been breaking records since its launch earlier this year in India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Vietnam, Thailand and Philippines.
Here's a look at both devices:
Power meets style
To showcase Realme’s philosophy 'Power meets Style’, Saud Ur Rehman, Product Manager of Realme Pakistan, introduced Realme 2 Pro and Realme C1 at its launch event together with Kedar Kondap, Vice President, Product Management of Qualcomm.
With Qualcomm committed to create paths to a smarter and more connected world, Qualcomm’s partnership with Realme is unsurprising.
“We see the increasing power of the younger generation thus it only made sense to work with Realme. The brand, while young, has some deep insights about what the youth require from devices like a smartphone. We are indeed proud to be collaborating with such a foresighted brand to provide the best, affordable products for the target market,” Saud said.
