Ultra tough Realme C75 budget phone launched in Malaysia priced at RM699

If you need a robust drop proof smartphone but are on a tight budget, you’ll love what realme’s new budget tough phone has to offer. Dubbed the realme C75, the new phone is one of the toughest devices in its budget RM699 price point.

For what you pay for, the realme C75 has an IP66, IP68 and IP69 dust and water resistance rating along with resistance against high-pressure jets of water. The phone is also one of the first phones to have a TÜV Rheinland Rugged Smartphone Certificate and also has a robust MIL-STD 810H level of protection. The phone has a robust ArmorShell Glass sheathing its front display, an integrate metal inner frame and a chassis layout with robust shock absorption built in to resist drops.

While it can resist up to 1.5 metres of water for up to 30 minutes, the phone also has the ability to remove water from its chassis with a SonicWave Water Ejection mode that vibrates its mono speaker to remove up to 50% of water from the speaker though you’ll likely still need to dry it off.

In terms of hardware, the realme C75 has a 6.72-inch IPS LCD with FHD+ resolution, a 90Hz refresh rate and a Mediatek Helio G92 Max processor paired with 8GB RAM and 256GB of expandable storage. The rear has a single 50MP F/1.8 AI camera with the front featuring a single 8MP camera for selfies. Keeping it powered is a 6,000mAh battery one of the largest in its price category with 45W fast charging.
