Additionally, it meets MIL-STD-810H standards, which helps protect against drops, vibrations, and temperature changes. Its size measures 165.7 mm by 76.2 mm by 8 mm. It is smaller than the rival Redmi 14C (171.9 mm by 77.8 mm by 8.2 mm).

Display
The realme C75 features a 6.72-inch IPS LCD screen with a resolution of 1080 by 2400 pixels. The display is sharp and clear, with a peak brightness of 690 nits, making it usable even in bright sunlight. Its 90Hz refresh rate allows for smooth scrolling and navigation, which is better than the common 60Hz found in most budget phones.
However, compared to the Samsung Galaxy A16, which has a 6.7-inch Super AMOLED screen, the realme C75 lacks the deeper blacks and vibrant colors of AMOLED technology. The Xiaomi Redmi 14C offers a larger 6.88-inch IPS LCD with a higher refresh rate of 120Hz, but its resolution and brightness are lower than the realme C75.
Cameras
The realme C75 has a dual-camera setup with a 50MP (f/1.8) main sensor and an unspecified secondary lens. The main camera performs well in bright conditions, capturing detailed and sharp images. It also includes night mode, which reduces noise for better low-light photos.

The front camera is 8MP (f/2.0) and produces decent selfies, but the rear camera lacks clarity.
Video recording on the realme C75 supports 1080p at 30fps, but stabilization could be improved.
In comparison, the Samsung Galaxy A16 offers a triple-camera system, including a 50MP main lens, ultrawide, and macro options, providing more versatility. The Xiaomi Redmi 14C also features a 50MP main camera but has a higher-resolution 13MP front camera for sharper selfies.
Hardware and Performance
The realme C75 is powered by the MediaTek Helio G92 Max chipset, paired with 8GB of RAM. This hardware handles tasks like browsing and app switching smoothly. It runs on Android 14 with realme UI 5.0, which has a simple and easy-to-use design.

In comparison, the Xiaomi Redmi 14C uses the Helio G81 Ultra, which is slightly less powerful than the G92 Max but sufficient for general use.
On the other hand, the Samsung Galaxy A16 has a more advanced Helio G99 chipset, offering better processing speeds for demanding tasks. While the realme C75 performs well for its price, it doesn’t match the performance of the Galaxy A16 but holds an edge over the Redmi 14C in terms of hardware capabilities.
Battery and Charger
The realme C75 has a 6000mAh battery, providing long-lasting usage. It can handle a full day of activities like navigation, photography, and social media, with plenty of charge remaining. The phone supports 45W fast charging, allowing it to reach 80% in about 30 minutes, which is convenient for quick recharges. It also offers the reverse wired charging facility.

In comparison, the Samsung Galaxy A16 has a smaller 5000mAh battery with 25W charging, which takes more time to charge fully. The Xiaomi Redmi 14C also has a 5160mAh battery but only supports 18W charging, making it slower than the realme C75.
The larger battery, faster charging and reverse wired make the realme C75 more suitable for users who need extended usage without frequent recharging.
