Why This Phone
BudgetThe Realme C65 is fundamentally a budget-tier device based on its Helio G85 chipset and 720p display. While it offers decent battery and charging specs, the 409 USD price point is significantly overpriced for the hardware provided, resulting in a very low value score. Popularity is estimated as moderate, as Realme's C-series typically targets high-volume entry-level markets, though this specific pricing makes it uncompetitive against better-equipped mid-range alternatives.
