The Narzo 50A Prime features a 6.6-inch FullHD+ display offering a peak brightness of 600 nits and also sports a 50-megapixel primary camera. It supports a touch sampling rate of up to 180Hz and makes it a good device for some light gaming sessions. Running at the heart of the device is the same processor that came with the Realme C31 budget smartphone.
Here is everything you need to know about the Realme Narzo 50A Prime.

A Narzo that’s puzzlingly priced and slotted
