narzo might be more familiar to you as a series under realme, but it’s spinning out of the established smartphone maker into a standalone brand within realme‘s ecosystem. It will be launched in six Southeast Asian countries, starting with the Philippines.
According to Allen Yin, country manager of narzo in the Philippines, the decision to launch in the country was because of how “well-received” its earlier models have been.
The brand’s goal aligns with what realme has been striving towards, offering competitive, bang-for-your-buck smartphones.
