The Realme 16 smartphone has been shown off by the brand as a counterpart to its Pro and Pro+ models that were launched several weeks ago that embraces a decidedly airier design. The smartphone embraces an Air Design that responds to the popularity of sleek slender models and features a 6.57-inch AMOLED screen with FHD+ resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. The smartphone also boasts a triple camera stymy accented by a selfie mirror, while also featuring support for the brand's LumaColor Image processing technology.

The Realme 16 smartphone is paired with a 7,000mAh battery with support for 60W fast charging despite its slender style and has a MediaTek Dimensity 6400 Turbo chip with 8GB of RAM and up to 256GB of storage.
