5 best features of the entry-level realme C35

Looking for entry-level smartphones these days is kinda tricky since there are a sea of offerings available. In one aspect, narrowing down your choices could prove to be more difficult, but this could also be a good thing since you can now go for a device that represents your personality more.

With this in mind, realme launches the newest offering from its affordable C series. The realme C35 not just comes with capable specs, but also boasts a stylish and premium design to go with your OOTDs.

Priced in the Philippines at less than PhP 10K, here are our five best features for the device for you to see if it’s a fit for what you’re looking for.

Entry-level, but premium-looking

The new realme C35 now comes with a more modern look with its squared-off edges and a sleek, yet solid chassis. I like how the back panel comes with what the company calls its Dynamic Glowing Design with a subtle gradient depending how light hits it.

It’s currently realme’s thinnest and lightest model in the C-series at just 8.1mm thin and 189 grams so it’s not an effort to use even for long periods of time.

A fingerprint sensor on the power button completes the phone’s updated design and that way, adds another layer of security.

As a whole, the classy vibe its body has and its ‘glowing’ back panel make it a subtle, but effective accent for your OOTD — if that’s something that matters to you. And speaking of glowing, the realme C35 comes in Glowing Black and Glowing Green.

Easily a multimedia device

With its large 6.6-inch Full HD+ display (2408 x 1080 resolution), you can enjoy streaming content and easily go for a more immersive experience unlike those with smaller displays.

Plus, with its almost bezel-less design, it achieves a 90.7% screen-to-body ratio that adds to the immersion. Consuming content is not only enjoyable indoors as the device can go for a peak brightness of 600 nits under direct sunlight.

And if ever you’re into fast-paced games, its 180Hz touch-sampling rate should help to make those last-second decisions that could make or break your match.

C is also for Camera Capabilities

While the phone is proud to sport a chic and classy design, its cameras are also capable components for capturing images (say that last line 3x fast).

With a 50-megapixel AI main camera, it’s able to shoot our daily snaps with clarity and detail that’s ready to be posted online even without post processing. The main lens is then accompanied by a B&W lens to help improve portrait shots and a macro lens for shooting images up close.

Of course, its selfie camera isn’t just your typical lens. It has a Sony sensor that shoots natural-looking selfies.

A reliable day-to-day smartphone

At the heart of the realme C35 is a Unisoc T616 octa-core processor that, together with its 4GB RAM and 64GB storage, provided a decent and smooth experience throughout our entire time with the phone.

There’s also a bigger 128GB storage available but if you really need extra space to work with, it has a microSD slot that supports up to 256GB of extra storage.

It not only comes with capable processing power, but it’s also efficient enough and able to conserve precious battery when needed so its 5000mAh battery easily lasts an entire day for us, and could even last longer, depending on usage.

For charging, it comes with an 18W quick charger so it fills up faster than others in its class.

Certified for your peace of mind

The C35 is also certified by TÜV Rheinland for high reliability and has passed tests for durability and build quality to offer a premium experience to its users.

With the time we spent with the phone, its form factor easily grows on you and does give off that high-quality feel and look as a daily device.

Bonus: Priced competitively

As a cherry on top, the realme C35 is priced competitively with all those features in mind. It starts at PhP 8,499 for the 4GB/64GB variant and PhP 9,499 for the 4GB/128GB model.

As an exclusive offer, it will be available at its lowest price of PhP 6,888 (4GB/64GB) and PhP 7,888 (4GB/128GB)  via @realmePH on TikTok Shop Philippines on May 18, from 3PM to 8PM only. Customers will also get a free realme Motion Activated Night Light worth PhP 590 with every purchase of realme C35 during its 5-hour livestream.

The realme C35 will also be available via the realme Official Store on Lazada and Shopee where you can catch discounts of up to PhP 1,200 off starting May 19 at midnight. 

The phone will also be available at all realme official stores and partner dealers nationwide starting May 25.
