Another Price Revision for the 16 Series

The latest increase adds to several previous revisions across realme’s lineup this year. The realme 16 series has already seen multiple price changes since its launch, including revisions in May, June, and twice during the first week of July.

The realme 16 Pro’s base variant had already climbed by roughly ₹9,000 cumulatively before this latest increase. OnePlus, POCO, and iQOO have also revised prices across their lineups during the same period as DRAM and NAND costs continue to put pressure on smartphone manufacturers.

The latest realme prices are effective from August 18. The hardware remains unchanged across these models, while buyers now have to pay more for the same configurations that were available at lower prices earlier this year.
