Narzo, which recently became a standalone brand in the Philippines, is about to expand its offerings locally with the introduction of the Narzo 50i Prime on August 15.
(Update, January 5, 2023: Here’s our long-term review of the Narzo 50i Prime!)
(Update, September 27: The Narzo 50i Prime gets a price drop!)
The smartphone has a suggested retail price of P4,999 (roughly $90), but you can get it for only P4,399 ($80) — with free shipping at that — at Narzo’s official store on Tiktok Shop Philippines. The Narzo 50i Prime will also be offered at a discounted flash price of P4,449 ($80) from the 15th to the 17th on Lazada and for just P4,499 ($81) on August 15 on Shopee.
The most affordable Narzo model yet counts a big battery as one of its highlights. The 5,000mAh cell with 10-watt charging should be able to last a day with average usage. And with Ultra Saving mode turned on, the battery life can be extended further.
There’s an 8-megapixel camera on the back and a 5-megapixel one housed in the waterdrop-styled notch up front, on the 60Hz screen measuring 6.5 inches.
Powering the Narzo 50i Prime is a Unisoc Tiger T612 octa-core chip paired with 3GB of RAM and 32GB of UFS 2.2 storage, which can still be expanded up to 1TB via a microSD card. Narzo says the phone runs by default on the Realme UI R Edition, which is designed to draw less power and make use of less bloatware.
