Realme C21
The Realme C21 is a typical low-end budget smartphone that could be many people’s first smartphone. Given its low price, it makes an excellent basic smartphone for calling, messaging, and even remote learning. Users who purchase the Realme C21 should not expect much in terms of power and performance. With that in mind, the Realme C21’s main focus is on its ability to run apps and provide a long battery life. As expected, the C21 runs apps well and provides a usable software experience with a few hiccups. The battery life is quite good, and because it has a lower capacity than the 6,000mAh battery in the Realme C25, it charges faster.
