Redmi A1

Redmi A1: Realme C30s alternatives

The Redmi A1 is priced at Rs 6499 for the single 2GB + 32GB model. At this price, the phone is a great alternative for the RRealme C30s in India.

It sports a 6.52-inch HD+ display with a waterdrop-style notch. Further, the display has 20:9 aspect ratio, 400 nits brightness and scratch-resistant glass. In comparison, the Realme C30s features an almost similar 6.5-inch HD+ display with 20:9 aspect ratio, 400 nits of brightness and a micro-textured slip-resistant design.

As for the dimensions, the Redmi A1 is slightly bigger than the Realme C30s, despite having similarly sized screens. The Redmi A1 measures 164.9 x 76.5 x 9.1mm while the Realme C30s measures 164.2 x 75.7 x 8.5mm. This implies that the C30s is thinner than the Redmi model. Moreover, the C30s is also lighter at 185 grams instead of the 192 grams on the Redmi model. One thing that is lacking in Redmi A1 is the fingerprint sensor while the Realme C30s comes with a side-mounted fingerprint sensor.

Redmi A1 is powered by the octa-core MediaTek Helio A22 SoC, which is coupled with 2GB of RAM and 32GB storage, which is expandable up to 512GB. On the other hand, the entry level variant of Realme C30s comes with an octa-core Unisoc SC9863A1 chip along with 2GB RAM and 32 of storage.

For optics, the Redmi A1 has an AI-backed dual rear camera unit comprising an 8-megapixel primary sensor and a depth sensor. For selfies and video chats, the phone features a 5-megapixel selfie camera sensor at the front. The Realme C30s features an 8-megapixel AI main camera and a 5-megapixel front-facing camera. We can’t expect good camera quality in entry-level smartphones and the same is the case with these two smartphones. But it is to be noted that Redmi A1 is coming with an extra depth sensor but it should not make much difference.

The Redmi A1 comes with the Android 12 Go edition, while the Realme C30s features Android 12 out of the box with Realm UI Go Edition skin. Both phones pack a 5,000mAh battery with support for 10W charging.

Pros

  • Stock Android
  • Price Cheaper

Cons

  • Slightly inferior processor
  • No fingerprint sensor

Realme Narzo 50i Prime

Realme narzo 50i prime: : Realme C30s alternatives

Realme C30s does have in house competition as well from Realme Narzo 50i Prime. It was launched earlier this week for Rs 7,999 for the 3GB + 32GB variant and Rs 8,999 for the 4GB + 64GB model in India. This can be considered as an alternative to Realme C30s as it is priced similarly.

The smartphone sports a 6.5-inch HD+ display which is the same as Realme C30s. Both phones are backed by a 5,000mAh battery that supports 10W charging. The devices measure 8.5mm in thickness, but Narzo 50i Prime is a bit lightweight at 182 grams as C30s is 185 grams in weight. Talking of another difference, Realme C30s features a side-mounted fingerprint scanner while the Narzo 50i Prime doesn’t have a fingerprint scanner.

The Narzo 50i Prime is powered by an octa-core Unisoc T612 while Realme C30s pack a Unisoc SC9863A1 processor. Both devices pack up to 4GB of RAM and 64GB of 2.2 storage. The only other difference is that the Realme C30s supports cards only up to 256GB in comparison to 1TB on Narzo 50i Prime.

Further, both phones have the same camera setup with an 8-megapixel rear camera and a 5-megapixel selfie camera. They are expected to offer similar camera performance, but we have not reviewed these devices, we can’t say much about their camera shots.

The Narzo 50i Prime runs on an older Android 11 compared to Android 12 in C30s Which looks quite strange.

The Spark 9T packs a 5,000mAh battery with support for 18W fast charging. The Realme C30s also packs the same battery, but it just comes with 10W charging. Additional features include a side-facing fingerprint scanner, a USB-C port, and a 3.5mm audio jack.

The device uses an 8-megapixel front shooter. Cameras always have to be compared in real-world usage so we can’t comment much on their shooting capabilities.

As for software, the handset runs on an older Android 11 operating system. This is where the Hot 12 lacks a little behind than Realme C30s which is powered by Android 12. Infinix Hot 12 is backed up by a 6000mAh battery with 18W support. While the Realme C30s packs a 5000mAh battery with 10w charging.
