narzo spins off to its own brand, brings narzo 50 5G and Pro variant in the Philippines

Exciting times for more gaming-focused devices!

narzo is officially spinning off as an independent brand that will focus on bringing gaming-focused smartphones within reach, and their first launch will be two 5G phones in the narzo 50 line!

The narzo 50 5G and its Pro variant will be officially launching this month in the Philippines, as they will feature faster network connectivity alongside trademark bang-for-the-buck hardware features we’ve seen in earlier models.

“We are beyond excited to announce narzo’s official arrival in the local market,” says Allen Yin, the Country Manager for narzo PH.  

“This is the very first time that narzo will be its own unique entity, and not just a smartphone series under the realme brand. Out of the six other countries in Southeast Asia wherein narzo is present, we specifically chose to launch it first in the Philippines because of how well-received our earlier models have been in the past two years.” 

Two new devices will be launched this month, with similar characteristics including displays with 90HZ screen refresh rates, big batteries with fast charging, and Android 12 with realme UI 3.0 skinned on top.

The narzo 50 5G Pro has a MediaTek Dimensity chip, triple rear cameras, and a 6.4-inch Full HD+ Super AMOLED display combined with a 5000mAh battery capacity for long gaming times.
