The Realme 16x 5G India launch is now official, bringing a large display, a 7,000mAh battery and a 144Hz refresh rate to the company's latest smartphone lineup. Realme has positioned the phone around battery life and entertainment, while also adding features aimed at gamers and everyday users.
However, the Realme 16x arrives at a considerably higher starting price than its predecessor. The phone also retains some hardware from the Realme 15x, making its pricing an important part of the buying decision.

The Realme 16x 5G starts at Rs. 25,999 for the 4GB RAM and 128GB storage variant. The 6GB + 128GB model costs Rs. 27,999, while the top 6GB + 256GB version is priced at Rs. 30,999. The phone is offered in Endurance Brown and Glory White colour options.
