Realme is a Chinese smartphone manufacturer founded in 2018. Realme is a subsidiary of BBK Electronics, a Chinese multinational conglomerate that also markets smartphones under the Oppo, Vivo, OnePlus, and iQOO brands. Realme was founded by Sky Li (Li Bingzhong), the former vice president of Oppo and the head of Oppo India. Before going independent in 2018, Realme was a sub-brand of Oppo Electronics. However, the first traces of the brand date back to 2010, with the “Oppo Real” smartphone. The first smartphone under the brand was released in May 2018, namely the ‘Realme 1’. In November 2018, only a few months after its launch, Realme became the No. 1 emerging brand in the Indian market. Since its emergence in 2018, Realme has shipped more smartphones in India than Oppo. According to Counterpoint Research, Realme is the fastest brand to reach 50 million cumulative smartphone shipments in India. Realme ranks among the top six smartphone brands globally and is the fourth largest smartphone brand in India. The company is also credited as the first 5G smartphone in India. Since its emergence, Realme has branched out into several other product categories including the headphones, AIoT devices, electronics, appliances, smartwatches, etc. In May 2021, Dizo was established as the first brand in Realme’s TechLife ecosystem.
