narzo further strengthens its smartphone lineup with the launching of the narzo 50i Prime. This is narzo's new budget smartphone in the market today. I was able to test this for a week and here's my quick review.
What's inside the box?

- MicroUSB cable

- realme narzo 50i Prime unit
This is made of polycarbonate plastic with textured lines at the back. A big camera lens with flash is placed inside a matte rectangular shape at the top part with the brands logo. I love the shape of this phone. It's flat, has curved edges and very light. It only weighs 185g and 8.9mm thin.
Unfortunately, the box doesn't come with an adaptor and free case. Due to its material, a little bump or crash may break this phone. This is available in 2 colors - Dark Blue and Mint Green.
All buttons are on the right, and on the left, there's the dual sim tray and microSD slot that enables up to 1TB of expanded memory. The bottom part has 3.5mm audio port, microphone, MicroUSB slot, and the speakers.

The narzo 50i Prime has a wide 6.5in IPS LCD screen with 400nits. It has a resolution of 1600 x 720 and 20:9 ratio. The refresh rate of 60Hz is decent that you can still watch videos without a problem. It's decent enough to use in brighter conditions.
The narzo 50i Prime is equipped with Unisoc Tiger T612 Octa-core on a 12nm Octa-core node. This will provide smooth experience while using different apps. It also houses a Mali-G57 GPU for a decent gaming performance.
It boasts a 5000mAh massive battery with 10W charging. This phone will last throughout the day but the downside is the charging port. Because it is still a MicroUSB port, the charging time will take a while. It took me almost 2 hours to charge it from 20% to 100%.
It has a single AI rear camera with LED flash and it takes decent photos. It offers HDR option that really enhances the quality of the photos. The front camera is only 5mp and is placed in a dewdrop notch.
Here are some samples.

The narzo 50i Prime is only available in 3GB RAM + 32GB Storage variant and is priced at Php4,999. Now available on Lazada, Shopee, TikTok Shop, and all 27 narzo stores and kiosks nationwide.
The narzo 50i Prime reminds me of my first realme smartphone - the realme C1. It's light, good looking, reliable, and takes decent photos. This is an entry-level smartphone best for kids or students, or for someone who needs a secondary phone for work calls and texts. It's really affordable and reliable!
