Both phones run on an octa-core Unisoc T7250 chip with 64GB storage (expandable up to 2TB), plus an 8MP selfie camera.
The C81 gets a dual rear camera setup (13MP main), while the C81x has a single 13MP rear shooter.
Battery life is solid: the C81 packs a big 6,300mAh battery; the C81x offers 5,200mAh.
Pricing starts at ₹10,999 for the C81 (Android 16-based HyperOS 3) and ₹9,999 for the C81x (Android 15).
Both promise long-term OS and security updates, so you're covered for years.
