Realme launched the C53 in May with a 50MP primary camera in Malaysia, and the company today announced it will introduce a new Realme C53 in India on July 19 featuring a 108MP primary camera.
Realme is touting the new C53 as the "First and only 108MP Ultra Clear Camera in the segment," and the image it shared reveals gold will be one of the color options it will have in India.
The picture also confirms the presence of a side-mounted fingerprint scanner on the 108MP model, and you can see that the rear cameras and the flash aren't placed on a squircle-shaped camera island like the 50MP model.

A teaser posted by Realme's Indian branch on Twitter confirms the new C53 will pack a waterdrop notch display like the 50MP version, but whether or not it shares the rest of the specs with the 50MP model remains to be seen.
