Lately, Realme has focused on reinforcing its mid-range and entry-level range with the launch, on the one hand, of the Realme X3, and on the other, of the Realme C11 and the Realme C15. Last week, in addition, the company announced its intentions to introduce a new family in its catalog, the Realme V series, whose first exponent would be the Realme V5 5G.
