Realme’s debut, official Coca-Cola Limited Edition smartphone has been announced as a 10 Pro 5G that sells for more than an ordinary SKU with the exact same capabilities. However, everything is presented in fresh, distinctive packaging that includes themed mementos. After the month of February 2023, the Indian market will get just one thousand of these boxes.
The most modern iteration of the Realme 10 Pro 5G has been released in India. With the confirmation that the new Special Edition was designed to resemble a can of the well-known soft drink owing to the Cropped Coca-Cola logo, it has been clear that this is the first Android smartphone to have a licensed black, white, and Coke Red finish.
The bottle-top Settings icon, the “Coke Bubble” notification tone, and the “tssSS-kr-POP!” camera shutter noise are just some of the many fun Easter eggs that can be found throughout the 120Hz display device thanks to the liberal application of the brand’s “little bits of fun” to its version of Realme UI.
No word yet on whether or if these system-wide UI changes will be made available as an update for other Android phones; Realme has been mum on the subject. Although the new Coke-effect figurine of company mascot Realmeow will presumably not be sold as retail elsewhere, it is becoming more evident that one must purchase this delightful mobile advertisement of a 10 Pro 5G to get one.
In addition to the figurine, the “deluxe” packaging for the 10 Pro 5G Coca-Cola includes a SIM slot pin made from a recycled bottle top, some holographic branding stickers, and a serialized (0001-1000) card. All of these features come at a price of INR 20,999 (US$253), which is more than the INR 18,999 (US$229) cost of a “regular” 10 Pro with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage.
Die-hard Coke drinkers and 10 Pro 5G owners in India will have to wait until February 14, 2023 at 12:00 IST to reload the Realme or Flipkart websites in the hopes of purchasing the limited-edition Special Edition smartphone.
