The consecutive two-year champion1, realme Philippines, celebrates its first significant milestone for 2023 with a 3-minute sold-out record on Shopee. During the February 15 maiden sale of the realme 10 Pro 5G, the new model sold 2 units per second on average, with the initial bulk going out of stock right after the sale went live at midnight.
realme 10 Pro 5G SOLD OUT in just 3 minutes
“We are humbled by the overwhelming support from the realme Squad and our media partners,” says Austine Huang, Vice-President for Marketing. “We sincerely thank the thousands of viewers who tuned in to our realme 10 Pro Series 5G launch yesterday, and we promise to match the same level of enthusiasm with everything we have lined up for 2023.”
The latest smartphone model from realme will definitely be restocked on Shopee, in time for its end-of-month sale. Fans who missed out during the first-day selling can still head over to Lazada until February 17, Friday to catch the early bird offer of only ₱14,999. This Lazada exclusive is also at ₱2,000 OFF the original suggested retail price and comes with an additional one-year warranty (for a total of two years), plus a FREE Globe SIM Card with 65GB of free data.
During the product launch last February 14, the speakers elaborated on the unique features of the realme 10 Pro 5G, such as the 1mm ultra-thin side bezels made possible by RAZR Technology (Removed Adhesive Zero Resin), which allows for more compression when attaching the parts inside the smartphone, giving wider room to work with the display. This made the realme 10 Pro 5G’s Boundless Display practically thinner than the tip of a pencil, or just as thick as 3 pieces of bond paper, and even less than half the width of a 1-Peso coin.
The launch also took a deep dive into the often overlooked aspects of smartphone ownership, like overall User Experience and User Interface. It highlighted the new realme UI 4.0, which optimizes the layout, design, and functionality of the smartphone so it can suit the user better, instead of the other way around. Nifty features such as Auto Pixelate, Smart Always On Display with different presets, and even Advanced Encryption Standard for improved privacy on user’s files were highlighted so that all viewers, even those without a tech background, can better make use of the new additions.
realme’s long-standing partnership with Home Credit was also given the spotlight, allowing more Filipinos to get their dream smartphone without a one-time big-time payment. The realme 10 Pro 5G is eligible for either a 6-month or a 9-month installment plan, wherein fans can #DisplayNewVision for as low as only ₱44 a day.
On top of its cutting-edge 120Hz Boundless Display, the newly released smartphone model also comes with a 108MP ProLight Camera, Qualcomm Snapdragon 695 5G Processor, 5000mAh Battery backed by 33W SUPERVOOC Charging, Hi-Res Dual Stereo Speakers, and the new realme UI 4.0 based on Android 13 right off the box. It’s available in three colors: Dark Matter, Nebula Blue, and Hyperspace Gold.
