The Realme C30 India launch marks yet another affordable entry in Realme's popular C-series, competing head-to-head with the Redmi 9A, Infinix Smart 5, and the Realme C11 2021 — all in the tight sub-₹9,000 segment.
Realme C30 India Price and Availability
Realme has introduced the C30 in two storage configurations. The 2GB RAM + 32GB storage variant is priced at ₹7,499, while the 3GB RAM + 32GB storage variant comes in at ₹8,299. Both variants will be available from June 27 at 12:30 PM on Flipkart and Realme's official store.
Full Specifications of the Realme C30
The Realme C30 sports a 6.5-inch display with an 88.7% screen-to-body ratio and support for 16.7 million colours. The phone measures just 8.5mm thick and weighs a light 182 grams, featuring a vertical stripe design in two colour options: Bamboo Green and Lake Blue.

Performance and Software
Under the hood, the Realme C30 is powered by the UniSoC T612 chipset paired with UFS 2.2 storage — a step up from the eMMC storage common in this price bracket. The phone runs Realme Go Edition UI, a lightweight skin built on Android 11, designed to keep performance snappy on entry-level hardware.
Camera
On the camera front, the Realme C30 features an 8MP rear camera for everyday shots and a 5MP front camera for selfies and video calls — adequate for social media use at this price point.
Battery Life
The highlight of the device is its 5,000mAh battery. Realme claims it can last up to 43.5 days in Ultra Saving Mode at 5% charge. Even at that 5% reserve, the phone can run WhatsApp for 1.5 hours, Spotify for 4 hours, or keep you connected for 2.3 hours of calls. For users who prioritise battery endurance over raw power, the C30 delivers strong value.
How Realme C30 Stacks Up Against Rivals
The Realme C30 sits in a competitive space alongside the Redmi 9A, Infinix Smart 5, and Realme C11 2021. Compared to these, the C30 differentiates itself with UFS 2.2 storage and the lighter Realme Go Edition UI, which should translate to a smoother daily experience. The design update — particularly the vertical stripe pattern — also gives it a more premium look relative to its price.
For first-time smartphone buyers or those looking for a reliable secondary device, the Realme C30 offers a well-rounded package: a large display, long battery life, and a clean software experience, all under ₹8,500.
