Despite global economic fluctuations and inflationary trends, Indian consumers are actively pursuing premium value in smartphone purchases, indicating a strong inclination towards premiumization.

After being among the top-5 smartphone brands in 18 countries across three key regions, Realme is now focused on taking its position further up in the Indian market by 2024, as part of this aim to increase sales A target of 10 percent growth has been set.

The brand said it plans to achieve this goal through increased commitment towards research and development investment, with the intention of introducing innovative technologies tailored to the younger generation.
