Soon after the announcement, a few key specifications of the smartphone were leaked. However, the launch date of the smartphone was still under covers. Fortunately for us, that changes today.

Realme Malaysia has now announced through a Facebook post that the brand will be launching the Realme C11 smartphone in Malaysia on 30th June 2020 at 11 AM. The launch event will stream live on the brand’s Facebook page for Malaysia. The brand has revealed the key specifications of the Helio G35 chipset in the announcement post. This upcoming SoC will use a 12nm fabrication process and Cortex-A53 CPU cores with up to 2.3GHz clock frequency. The brand also claims that the Helio G35 is a ‘gaming processor’ in the Facebook post.

This Facebook post is accompanied by a teaser image of the smartphone. This image shows the front facia of the device. As you can see in the image, the Realme C11 has a traditional, V-shaped notch on the display. Realme has uploaded one more teaser image of the phone on its Facebook page. This teaser image says that the phone will have a ‘Bigger Battery.’ That is all the official information that we have regarding the Realme C11 at the moment.
