Realme 5i and Realme 6 prices hiked in India

Right after hiking the prices of budget smartphones like Realme C3, C2, and Narzo 10A last week, Realme has once again hiked the price of its smartphones — This time with the Realme 5i and Realme 6. 

The price change was done over the weekend and is now being reflected on Flipkart and Realme.com. The Realme 5i was launched in India back in January this year. At a starting price of Rs 8,999, it was subject to an initial price hike after the GST revision. A second revision has now brought its price up by Rs 1,000 to Rs 10,999.

The company did not disclose any details for the increase in price. But, we assume it is due to the production issue and to keep up with the staff across the nation. But, even with the price hike, there are hardly any Realme smartphones available on Flipkart right now. We expect Realme to stock up their smartphones in the coming days.
