realme C100 First Impressions:

For starters I like the blocky feel for the phone. It feels reliable and durable which is also something that this new addition to the C series does with its IP69 rating.
The screen is definitely catering more for people who want a bigger screen.
The color that I got was nice, Purple, but it doesn’t really stand out that much. I would have prefered it to really look more appealing.
Expect that it doesn’t have the fingerprint scanner in the display but rather on the phone’s side.
