Realme Narzo 20 official in PH. See its price, specs here

Realme Philippines has formally introduced its sub-brand Narzo, as it launched today, November 5, a phone from that line.

(Update, November 6: Our review of the Realme Narzo 20 is up!)

The Realme Narzo 20, which was initially unveiled in India early this year, has become official in the Philippines. It will be available first as a Lazada exclusive starting November 11, which happens to be when the biggest sale of the year takes place.

The smartphone is priced at P7,990 (around $165 converted), but if you buy it on the 11th, you’ll get a P500 ($10) discount — meaning the Narzo 20 will only be P7,490 ($155) at the time.

As an additional hack, Realme says you can “use the Lazada 11.11 voucher for less P400 ($8) for a minimum purchase of P5,000 ($104) via Lazada Wallet.”

The Realme Narzo 20 counts the 6,000mAh battery with support for 18 watts of fast charging and 48-megapixel AI triple camera on the back as its main highlights. Also in focus is the MediaTek Helio G85 chip inside, which brings a 1GHz GPU and HyperEngine enhancements for your gaming needs. The Narzo line targets gaming enthusiasts who are after handsets offered at reasonable price segments, after all.

The said model also features a 6.5-inch screen with an 8-megapixel selfie shooter inside the waterdrop notch up top; a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor; Android 10; 4GB of RAM; and 64GB of storage. Our review should be up in a few hours, so do check back for that.

The launch of the Realme Narzo 20 comes at a time when market-research firm Counterpoint Research revealed that the smartphone company is the world’s fastest brand to reach 50 million sales in just two years.
