HIGHLIGHTS

• Realme may be preparing the launch of Narzo 50A smartphone.
• Realme Narzo 50A will be the successor of the Narzo 30A.
• Realme may also launch its Pocket Bluetooth Speaker in India soon.

Realme is planning to skip the Narzo 40 series and launch Narzo 50 as the successor to the Narzo 30 family. Next in the Narzo series may be the Narzo 50A as it has been spotted on at least two certificate websites. According to a tipster, Realme has got the Narzo 50A certified by the Bureau of Indian Standards, or BIS, and Thailand’s Committee of National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Bureau, otherwise known as NBTC. Additionally, there is also speculation that Realme will also launch the Pocket Bluetooth Speaker in India soon.

Abhishek Yadav, who has a good track record for his leaks, posted some screenshots of the listing of the Realme Narzo 50A on the BIS and NBTC websites. The model number for this smartphone is RMX3430 and it indicates that the next series of Narzo smartphones is coming soon. Yadav also said that Realme has cancelled the Narzo 40 series. I am not sure if Yadav is saying that because he found the Narzo 50A or because someone privy to the development intimated him. Anyhow, the number 4 is considered bad luck in Chinese numerology, so maybe we may not see a Realme Narzo 40.

Even though the Realme Narzo 50A has bagged two certifications, the launch date is not clear right now. Certificates only mean the phone is ready to go to market. However, considering it is Realme, the phone may arrive sooner rather than later. There is no information on how much the Narzo 50A will cost. The Narzo 30A, its predecessor, was launched in India for the starting price of Rs 8,999 earlier this year.

Additionally, Realme is rumoured to bring its first speaker called the Pocket Bluetooth Speaker to India soon. According to Mukul Sharma, who is another credible tipster, Realme is planning a launch of the speaker soon. He did not say when, though. The Realme Pocket Bluetooth Speaker may come in Desert Grey and Classic Black colours with 3W output. There is no information on what this speaker will cost in India, but we can have an estimate based on the pricing from a different market. Realme launched the Pocket Bluetooth Speaker in Malaysia for MYR 79, which translates to roughly Rs 1,400.

Realme is also preparing to launch multiple smart home appliances in India around Diwali. Among them is the robotic vacuum cleaner that the company introduced in Europe back in June. Realme also confirmed recently that it will launch a washing machine around Diwali.
