Realme C2 budget smartphone has finally received Android 10 update
Realme has finally begun rolling out its long-awaited Realme UI skin update with Android 10 operating system for its Realme C2 ultra-budget smartphone.
The Realme C2 smartphone debuted in the first half of 2019. It became the cheapest and best-selling Realme smartphone at that time. It comes with ColorOS 6 skin based on Android 9.0 Pie.
In May 2020, Realme promised that an update to Android 10 would be rolled out for the Realme C2 as well. By the end of 2020, the company was expected to transfer its bestseller to Realme UI with Android 10. However, this only happened now. Beta testing has been conducted since September, and now stable firmware has begun to come to ordinary users, and not just to test participants.
