Realme Narzo 70x 5G and Narzo 70 5G Launched in India: Budget Smartphones with Turbo-Charged Features
Realme brings performance-focused upgrades with aggressive pricing, aiming to capture India’s budget 5G market
Realme has officially launched its latest smartphones in India — the Realme Narzo 70x 5G and Narzo 70 5G — bringing a mix of performance, design, and affordability to the competitive sub-₹15,000 smartphone segment. The devices were unveiled today via a live-streamed event and are now available for purchase through Amazon and Realme’s official website.
Targeted at young consumers and first-time 5G users, the new Narzo models pack in segment-first features including high refresh rate displays, large batteries, and MediaTek processors, while keeping prices within reach for budget-conscious buyers.
Realme Narzo 70x 5G: Turbo Specs at a Budget Price
The Realme Narzo 70x 5G is priced at ₹11,999 for the 4GB RAM + 128GB storage variant and ₹13,499 for the 6GB RAM + 128GB model. It is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 6100+ processor, a 6nm chipset designed to balance power efficiency with reliable 5G connectivity. This processor is commonly seen in budget 5G smartphones and supports smooth performance for daily multitasking and gaming at moderate settings.
The phone sports a 6.72-inch Full HD+ LCD display with a 120Hz refresh rate, delivering fluid scrolling and enhanced responsiveness — a feature uncommon at this price point. The device houses a 50MP primary rear camera and a 2MP depth sensor. On the front, there’s an 8MP selfie shooter.
Powering the Narzo 70x is a 5,000mAh battery with 45W SUPERVOOC fast charging, claimed to charge from 0 to 50% in just 25 minutes, according to Realme. The phone runs on Realme UI 5.0 based on Android 14.
Why it matters: The Narzo 70x stands out as one of the most affordable smartphones in India with both 5G support and a 120Hz display — features typically reserved for higher-priced models. This strengthens Realme’s position in India’s fast-growing affordable 5G smartphone segment.
Realme Narzo 70 5G: Better Processor, Smarter Features
The Realme Narzo 70 5G is the higher-end sibling in the lineup and comes with a starting price of ₹14,999. It’s powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 7050 chipset — a more capable processor built on a 6nm process, known for efficient multitasking and gaming. This same chipset has previously been seen in mid-range devices like the Realme 11x.
It features a 6.67-inch AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, offering deeper contrast and more vibrant visuals compared to the LCD screen on the 70x. The AMOLED panel also supports in-display fingerprint recognition, giving it a premium touch.
Camera specifications include a 64MP AI rear camera and a 16MP front camera for selfies and video calls. The Narzo 70 5G is equipped with the same 5,000mAh battery but steps up the charging to 45W SUPERVOOC, promising fast top-ups.
Notably, both models feature an “Air Gesture” function — allowing users to control certain functions like scrolling without touching the screen — and Realme’s “Rainwater Smart Touch” for better usability in wet conditions.
Designed for Gen-Z, Fueled by 5G Ambitions
The Narzo series, first introduced in 2020, has evolved into a youth-centric sub-brand under Realme, aimed at offering cutting-edge specs for value-driven consumers. The 2025 Narzo lineup continues this philosophy by integrating flagship-like features into the budget segment.
India, now the second-largest smartphone market in the world, has witnessed a rapid adoption of 5G services since their rollout in 2022. According to a February 2025 report from Counterpoint Research, over 52% of smartphones sold in India in the last quarter supported 5G. Realme has been among the top three contributors to this trend in the under-₹15,000 category.
“The Narzo 70 series reflects our commitment to democratizing technology,” said a Realme spokesperson at the launch event. “We want to empower young users with features that enhance digital lifestyles without breaking the bank.”
Competition Heats Up in Budget 5G Segment
Realme’s latest launch intensifies the rivalry in the budget 5G space, where brands like Redmi, Poco, and Samsung are also aggressively vying for dominance. The Narzo 70x, with its ultra-aggressive pricing and solid specs, directly competes with the Redmi 13C 5G and the Poco M6 5G.
However, Realme’s strategy of combining display innovation, software optimization, and fast charging could give it an edge. Features like Air Gestures and Rainwater Touch add practical value and appeal to tech-savvy young users.
Final Take: Affordable Innovation Done Right
The Realme Narzo 70x 5G and Narzo 70 5G underscore the brand’s focus on bringing premium features to entry-level smartphones. By prioritizing essentials like display quality, fast charging, and reliable 5G performance, Realme has crafted two devices that offer strong value propositions.
For consumers looking to upgrade to 5G without stretching their budget, the Narzo 70x is a compelling pick. Meanwhile, the Narzo 70 is a smarter choice for users who want a better camera and AMOLED visuals without venturing into the ₹20,000 range.
As India’s digital and mobile-first population continues to expand, devices like these are critical in bridging the affordability gap in next-gen connectivity.
