Realme is set to launch its budget P3 Lite smartphone in India on September 13, 2025. Touted as a “6,000mAh 5G smartphone under Rs 10,000,” the new model will join Realme’s extensive P3 lineup, which already includes the P3, P3 Pro, P3 Ultra, and P3x.
An official landing page is now live on the Realme India website, revealing key specifications and the launch date. The Realme P3 Lite sports a 6.67-inch HD+ IPS LCD Eye-Comfort display with a 120 Hz refresh rate. The screen offers a peak brightness of 625 nits, supports full brightness DC Dimming, and features Rainwater Smart Touch, allowing users to operate the display even with wet hands.
Realme is positioning its budget 5G smartphone as a durable device, featuring a military-grade shock-resistant body and an IP64 rating for added protection. The phone will be available in three colour options: Lily White, Purple Blossom, and Midnight Lily.
Under the hood, the Realme P3 Lite is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 6300 processor, paired with 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB of internal storage, promising smooth performance for everyday tasks and moderate gaming.
The Realme P3 Lite is also impressively slim at just 7.94mm and weighs 197 grams, yet it houses a 6,000mAh battery with 45W fast charging support. Realme claims this battery can provide up to 54 hours of phone calls, 18 hours of Instagram usage, and 14 hours of YouTube playback. Additionally, the brand offers a 4-year battery health guarantee with the device.
For photography, the phone features a 32 MP AI primary rear camera. Out of the box, it will run Android 15-based Realme UI 6, which includes a suite of AI-powered tools such as AI Smart Face and AI Clear Loop for enhanced user experience.
Focusing on network connectivity, the Realme P3 Lite comes with an AI Smart Signal Adjustment feature, which is said to improve call quality and app download speeds by up to 15%. The phone also includes a Free Call feature, allowing users to communicate via Bluetooth with friends or family in areas with weak or no network signal.
In many ways, the P3 Lite appears to be a rebranded Realme 14x. With the launch just a few days away, details on pricing and availability will soon be revealed. Judging by its specs and features, the device could emerge as one of the best budget smartphones under Rs 10,000 in India.
