Realme today launched its new youth-centric budget smartphone series in India. They unveiled the new Realme Narzo 20 series via an online event. The Narzo 20 series comes as a successor to the Narzo 10 series and consists of three devices. Narzo 20 Pro, Narzo 20, and the Narzo 20A all fall in the same price range. And these devices will compete with the Redmi 9 series. From the looks of it, the Narzo 20 series brings in a great selection of devices in the budget segment. Let’s find out what the Realme Narzo 20 series brings to the table, including the expected price in Nepal of these devices.
Narzo 20 Pro Overview
Starting off the list is the Realme Narzo 20, which brings in the Super Dart fast charging. It is the 65W fast charging capability that we had seen in the Realme 7 Pro. However, Narzo 20 Pro is the first device in the budget segment to sport this feature. With this charging speed, it can charge up its 4500mAh battery from 0% to 100% in just over 38 minutes.

Narzo 20 Overview
The vanilla Narzo 20 does not feature the 65W super-fast charging capability. However, what it does have is a humongous 6000mAh battery. It can support 43 hours of call time or 18 movies on a single charge. Furthermore, it also comes with an 18W fast charging and reverse charging capability.
There is some downgrade in terms of the screen of the Narzo 20 and its Pro variant. This one despite having the same screen size only offers HD+ resolution. Furthermore, the refresh rate is also of 60Hz only. The screen has a water-drop notch to house the 8MP selfie shooter.
Around the back, the design is similar to that of the Nazo 20 Pro. However, the vanilla version only has a triple-camera array on the back. It consists of the same GM1 48MP primary sensor, an 8MP ultra-wide lens, and a 2MP macro lens. And oh, the fingerprint sensor, unlike the side-mounted one on the Pro, is located on the back panel itself.
