There could be a Realme A1 budget smartphone in the works, to cover buyers desirous of purchasing smartphones on shoestring budgets. As of now, Realme has been touted as an intense competitor to Xiaomi; hence, we could practically witness a Realme U1 vs the Xiaomi Redmi Note 6 Pro healthy battle.

Now, as far as the speculated Realme A1 smartphone is concerned, rumour mills are abuzz with the handset being launched during early 2019 in India. In addition to these reports, even tipsters have taken to social media forums to hint at the Realme A1 series of phones. As per a Droidshout report, the Realme A1 is hugely rumoured to come with Android 8.1 (Oreo) operating platform out of the boz; other technical specifications of the handset should surface at any point in time.

Nonetheless, upon the Realme A1 going official and catering to the budget segment in India, there could be a much required shot in the arm for the sector which of late has seemingly been overlooked by all major brands who have increasingly been engrossed in releasing phones catering to the mid-range, premium mid-range, and high-end segments. Recently, it has seemingly been the Chinese brands viz Xiaomi, Oppo, Vivo; along with Nokia; who have released prominent handsets to cater to those looking at buying smartphones on with shoestring budgets. Hence, Realme A1 could potentially find relevance here.

Realme loyalists could share thoughts/insights on the speculated Realme A1 and on the budget smartphone segment requiring a prospective “boost” at this juncture. Also, as of now, the Realme C1 available for online purchase on a PAN-India basis in open sales. This handset is available at Rs 7499. At this juncture, it is worth noting that the Realme C1 also caters to buyers on tight budgets.USP of this handset is its Snapdragon octa-core SoC along with its 4230 mAh battery and dual camera set up.
