It’s 4x zoom feature enables users to capture a clear shot, even from a distance. In addition, the realme C15 Qualcomm Edition also supports PDAF that makes the focus more rapid and precise.

Users can easily switch to the ultra-wide-angle mode with just one click. Its distortion calibration algorithm solves edge distortion in traditional ultra-wide-angle photos, making wide-field photos more real and amazing.

8MP selfie camera: The 8MP selfie camera can take crystal clear selfies, and supports AI beautification function, HDR mode, portrait mode. It also supports a Panoselfie mode, enabling users to take wider selfies.
Mini-drop Fullscreen
Equipped with a 6.5” HD+ Mini-drop fullscreen display and 20:9 aspect ratio, the realme C15 Qualcomm Edition offers users a larger field of view and provides excellent gaming, audio, and video experience.
The internal structures of the screens adopt the newly upgraded stack process, which, based on guaranteeing functions, creatively draws the parts and components closer to each other reducing the area of droplets by 30.9% and bringing the screen to body ratio up to 88.7%.
Geometric Gradient Design
realme has applied Geometric Gradient Design for the realme C15 Qualcomm Edition. The trapezoid on the back cover of the smartphones divides it into three areas with different angles of lines, each bringing out a different color gradient.
As the view angle changes, the color and light in every area also change. This geometric gradient design achieves a visual effect that is both subtle and unique, making it an exceptional feature in the entry-level segment.
The back-cover texture is processed using the industry-leading German five-axis precise radium engraving machine. After 300 minutes of polishing, the curves are engraved to create a special reflective light effect.
The use of this technology makes the realme C15 Qualcomm Edition more colorful, appealing, comfortable in the hands, and less susceptible to fingerprints.
It also effectively prevents scratching and sliding. The square cameras located in the corners make the smartphone look perfectly balanced and ordered.
6000mAh High-capacity battery
The realme C15 Qualcomm Edition features a massive 6000mAh battery offering users a seamless experience. According to realme Lab tests, the realme C15 Qualcomm Edition can last for 57 days in standby mode. It also supports the special OTG reverse charge feature.
Battery Life Optimization
The realme C15 Qualcomm Edition offers multiple battery life optimization features. While the App Quick Freeze feature freezes less frequently used apps to idle background app power usage, the Screen Battery Optimization option slightly lowers some display effects without notice to increase battery endurance. Users can also turn on sleep standby optimization to save more energy.
For longer battery life, enable power saving mode, which will lower the screen brightness, shorten auto screen-off time to 15s, and disable background sync to increase battery life.
Super Power Saving Mode
With this mode, users can select 6 mostly used apps to be active to save battery. At the same time, the phone will turn on a more aggressive power-saving strategy enhancing the daily user experience. According to realme Lab’s test, users can make continuous calls for 2.45hr and can easily sustain 2.9 days without charging.
Fireproof material
