realme Narzo 60 Pro 5G and Narzo 60 5G, Announced in India! Coming Soon To the Philippines?

realme Narzo 60 Pro and its less powerful sibling, realme Narzo 60, have just been officially announced in India.

The Pro model is very similar to the recently launched realme 11 Pro, with the only differences being the design on the back and the option to have 1TB of storage. On the other hand, Narzo 60 is being described by tech experts as basically a rebranded version of the realme 11.

The Narzo 60 Pro features a curved 6.7-inch AMOLED display with FHD+ resolution as well as 120Hz refresh rate. On the other hand, the Narzo 60 has a slightly smaller 6.43-inch AMOLED display with the same FHD+ resolution but a slower 90Hz refresh rate.

Both phones are powered by MediaTek chipsets, with the Pro model having a Dimensity 7050 and the Narzo 60 having a Dimensity 6020. The notable addition on the Pro model is the option for 1TB of storage, which comes with 12GB of RAM.

In terms of cameras, the Narzo 60 Pro has a 100 MP main camera with an f/1.75 aperture, a 26mm lens, and OIS. It also has a 2MP macro camera. The Narzo 60, on the other hand, has a 64MP main camera and a 2MP depth sensor.

Both phones run on realme UI 4.0 based on Android 13 and have 5,000 mAh batteries. However, the Pro model supports faster charging at up to 67W, while the non-Pro version is limited to 33W.

As for available colorways, realme Narzo 60 Pro and Narzo 60 are available in Mars Orange and Cosmic Black.

The Narzo 60 Pro starts at INR 23,999 for the 8GB RAM + 128GB ROM version. There is also a 12GB RAM  + 256GB ROM version available for INR 26,999, and the highest-end model with 12GB of RAM and 1TB of storage costs INR 29,999.

The starting price for the Narzo 60 is INR 17,999 for the 8/128GB version, and it goes up to INR 19,999 for the 8/256GB version.

Pre-bookings for the Narzo 60 series in India begin on July 6 at 1PM through the Realme Online store and Amazon India. Open sales will start on July 15, 2023.

Just like India, the Philippines is a key market for Narzo smartphones so I am expecting realme to also launch these new models here within the next few weeks. The current higher end Narzo models in the Philippines are Narzo 50 5G with a price tag of PHP 12,999 and the Narzo 50 Pro 5G, which dons an SRP of PHP 15,999. If the Narzo 60 Series will be the next iteration to the Nazro 50 Series, I think it makes sense to assume that they will share more or less similar SRPs.
