Realme Narzo 30 Pro 5G and Narzo 30A launched: price in India and specs
First 5G phone in the Narzo series
Realme Narzo 30 Pro and Narzo 30A have been launched in India today. Realme hosted its second launch event of the year and unveiled two new budget smartphones, a pair of true wireless earbuds and few gaming accessories and merchandise.
The Realme Narzo 30 Pro and Narzo 30A are the successor to the Narzo 20 Pro and Narzo 20A respectively from September 2020. The Narzo 30 Pro also marks the first 5G phone under the Narzo series. In fact, it is now the cheapest phone in India to support 5G. While the Narzo 30 Pro brings some improvements from the last-gen, the company also had to make a bit of compromise in terms of charging speeds. Also, both phones still run on Android 10 based on Realme UI 1.0.

The successor to the Narzo 20 Pro, the Narzo 30 Pro is the first 5G phone in the series and also the cheapest 5G phone in India right now undercutting the Realme X7.
