realme PH wraps up the festivities with Make-A-Wish Foundation

Following this year's FanFest in August, realme Philippines wraps up the festivities by reaffirming its commitment to the community. The smartphone brand once again partnered with Make-A-Wish Foundation Philippines as part of its CSR roadshow for 2024. Held on September 18, 2024, the event took place at Space and Time Cube +, an interactive museum located in S Maison. 

“The community is one of the driving forces of the realme team and we want to express our utmost gratitude through this CSR activity. In collaboration with Make-A-Wish Philippines and together with our media partners, we're hoping to put a smile on the children's faces," realme Philippines' Communications Lead Patty Gonzales shared.

Fun Filled Tour For The Kids 

This year, 15 Make-A-Wish Philippines' beneficiaries sent their wishes to realme for tablets to use for school and entertainment purposes. On top of granting the children's wishes, realme Philippines also organized an interactive art tour for them at Space and Time Cube +. 

The children were accompanied by their families to guide them through immersive exhibits designed to engage their creativity and curiosity. Members of the media also took part in the CSR activity, joining the children and their guardians in exploring the various installations. To make sure that they can reminisce about the meaningful experience, the media used the realme 13 Pro Series 5G to capture every moment even in low light conditions.

After the tour, realme fulfilled the wishes of the 15 children by gifting each of them a brand new realme Pad Mini, enabling them to continue their educational and entertainment pursuits. 

"We are also happy to be part of their everyday journey as they use their very own realme Pad Mini for studying and even for watching their favorite shows," Gonzales added.

In a gesture of appreciation, realme also extended their generosity to the team behind Make-A-Wish Philippines realme 12 5G smartphones, valuing the brand's dedication to supporting those who work tirelessly to make the dreams of the kids come true.

Through this meaningful collaboration, realme Philippines demonstrates its commitment to making a positive impact in the lives of the community. Stay tuned for more updates on how the brand continues to live out the campaign to #MakeItReal

realme Philippines continues to dominate the local smartphone industry as it claims the no. 1 spot in the market!

realme Philippines continues to dominate the local smartphone industry as it claims the no. 1 spot in the market once again, according to international research firms IDC, Canalys, and Counterpoint Research in their respective Q2 2021 reports. 

With this milestone, the fast-growing tech and lifestyle brand has now managed to hold the top spot for two consecutive quarters—an impressive feat the brand attained in less than three years. The brand first held this position in Q3 of 2020, just less than two years since its entry to the Philippine market in November 2018.

According to Canalys, realme accounted for 26% of the local market share, besting four other smartphone brands in the category. It also reported a 51% year-over-year growth for the brand during this quarter.

The brand also ranked first in a separate report by Counterpoint Research, with a 21% market share. Similarly, realme also showed leadership in e-commerce channels. “realme continued to lead the Philippines online market with a 32% share”, according to the report. 

In addition, realme’s industry leadership for Q2 2021 is further validated by IDC as the research firm also reported a number 1 ranking for the brand.

“We are truly grateful for the continuous support of our Filipino fans because without them, this success would not have been possible. Achieving the top spot for two consecutive quarters is no easy feat for a young brand, but we managed to achieve this milestone because of the love and trust of our Squad. Rest assured, this only drives us to reach greater heights and dare to leap with trend-setting innovations and better services for our community,” shares Austine Huang, realme Philippines’ VP for Marketing.

realme reaches 100-million mark worldwide

On the global scale, realme also achieved a milestone of 100 million smartphones sold. Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, realme still managed to become the fastest global smartphone brand to reach this milestone in three years, according to market research consultancy firm Strategy Analytics. In addition, realme is also the fastest growing major smartphone brand globally in Q2 2021 with a year-over-year growth rate of 149%, as data from research firm International Data Corporation (IDC) showed.

 

This achievement further validates realme’s sales and business strategies across the globe. Established only in 2018, realme is now the 7th largest smartphone brand with presence in 61 different markets worldwide. 

This 100-million milestone is the latest in line of realme’s spectacular global rise, as the company adds another ‘first’ to its name. “The past three years have really been about an entrepreneurial spirit and untamed growth for realme”, said realme’s CEO, Sky Li. “Thanks to the huge support from our young users, we have been able to reach our goal of shipping 100 million smartphones and have gained significant ground in the smartphone market. We will continue to provide young consumers around the world with products that have premium performance and trend-setting designs at affordable prices.”

Li added that realme's next goal is to achieve a dual-100 million target - shipping another 100 million handsets by the end of 2022 and completing the same milestone within the 2023 calendar year.

To achieve this, realme is counting on a comprehensive product development strategy that will see it expand its offerings in two ways. With the recent launch of its flagship GT Series devices, dubbed as ‘flagship-killer’ phone, realme is poised to compete at mid-to-high-end segments. The company is also evolving its vision of building out a full-fledged AIoT ecosystem for global users within the next five years. To this end, realme has unveiled its1+5+T strategy: 1 being the mobile phone, 5 for True Wireless Stereo earphones, wearables, TVs, tablets, laptops, and T stands for realme’s AIoT brand TechLife. realme believes in its ability to lead users to a technologically enhanced lifestyle in a way that is affordable and sustainable at the same time. 

With an audacious vision and courage to take on the world, realme is poised to break down barriers in a competitive environment.

Dive into the 64MP camera experience with the latest realme 7i

realme Philippines, the top 2 smartphone brand in the country will complete its latest 7 Series with the realme 7i. Designed to be the companion of every Filipino trendsetter and go-getter, the realme 7i sports a new stylish mirror design inspired by nature, a quad-camera set-up headlined by a 64MP sensor, a large display with 90Hz refresh rate, and a large-capacity battery of 5,000mAh with 18W Fast Charge technology. The launch of the new 7 series device will be live-streamed on realme Philippines’ official Facebook page and YouTube Channel on October 21 at 6:00 p.m.

Young, artsy Filipinos who have been wanting to try photography can start with realme 7i’s quad-camera module which features four different lenses — a 64MP primary camera, a 119° ultra-wide lens, a macro lens and a B&W portrait lens. Its 16MP selfie camera developed for different skin types, face shapes and features allows users to take more accurate and natural-looking selfies. It is powered by a Sony IMX471 sensor that supports AI beauty, Bokeh Effect and HDR and EIS Stabilization. realme 7i’s powerful camera also has built-in filters, namely the Cyberpunk, Flamingo and Modern Gold which let users switch to different stylish night scenes with just one tap. With these superb camera features, users can take stunning selfies and elevate the curation of their Instagram feed!

For a high maintenance daily schedule of young Filipino go-getters, a phone battery that drains easily and takes too long to charge just won’t do. An all-day use and fast-charging battery is more appropriate — much like realme 7i’s 5000mAh battery with 18W Fast Charge technology. realme 7i’s large-capacity battery can last up to 20 hours of movie time and 88.5 hours of song streaming, and will only need less than two hours to fully charge.

After a long day of online school, work or chores, it’s time to catch up with friends through mobile gaming while video conferencing or have a ‘me’ time watching favorite TV series or movies. Nothing beats curling up on the bed after a long day, especially during this rainy season. With realme 7i’s 90Hz refresh rate, videos play smoother and faster and video game details look finer and sharper without lag. With a faster display response time, the screen can register and respond to touch quickly — a factor especially important for fast-paced games. Binge-watching and casual gaming experience are also elevated with realme 7i’s 6.5 inches screen display.

The top 2 smartphone brand in the country is doing an extra special realme 7i launch for its Filipino fans. A very special guest will be headlining the realme 7i launch! 

To find out who the latest realme squad member is and to get first dibs on exciting promos and prizes, realme fans are encouraged to join the Facebook live-stream launch on Wednesday, October 21, 6 p.m. 

The realme Buds Q sports the genius design of Hermes designer José Lévy

realme Philippines, lifestyle partner of the youth, grows its local AIOT product line-up with the launch of its latest audio device realme Buds Q on September 30. 

The realme Buds Q is the first in-ear True Wireless Stereo (TWS) from the brand. Poised to be the most stylish entry-level TWS yet, the realme Buds Q sports the genius design of José Lévy, the cooperated designer of Hermès and the art director of the realme Design Studio.

 

The youth of today thrives in the digital realm, a virtual biosphere that teems with platforms for self-expression. One way through which the youth expresses themselves is their style. The Gen Zs, for instance, coming from the generation that no longer knows a world pre-social media, are the most photographed people today. This makes them keen for fresh and new looks on the regular. Dedicated to offering what the youth needs, realme has committed to being not only a brand of top-notch technology but also of contemporary design. This gene of modern aesthetic is evident across all realme products -- every single one of which is a fashion statement on its own. The realme artistry is born out of the hard work of the realme Design Studio under the leadership of José Lévy the designer of Hermes.

For the Buds Q, Lévy took inspiration from the round cobblestones found along the shores of Normandy beach where he spent most of his youth. He and the realme team iterated the design for over 200 times, fine-tuning the curvature of the G3 curve just to give users a cobblestone-like design that is mellow and comfortable. An artistic and ergonomic masterpiece, the realme Buds Q is both a sight to behold and a pleasure to use. The realme Buds Q also brings sound performance straight out of audio heaven through its 10mm Large Driver and  Dynamic Bass Boost.

 

realme Buds Q users can also enjoy long hours of usage as the device’s charging case can hold power amounting to 20 hours worth total playback. The buds could also go on for three hours of single continuous calling time, four and a half hours of single continuous music listening time, five hours of single continuous gaming time, and six hours of single continuous video streaming time.

 

Watch the grand reveal of the realme Buds Q and the new realme 7 series in an online livestream launch on realme Philippines’ official Facebook page and YouTube channel on September 30, 12 noon. realme Philippines prepared an exciting and engaging launch for its fans. The live stream features seven interactive rooms full of exciting surprises.
