How much?
And, what about pricing and availability?

In Burmese market, the Realme 6i costs KS 249,900 (approximately Rs. 13,000) for the entry-level 3GB/64GB model and goes up to KS 299,900 (approximately Rs. 15,800) for the top-tier 4GB/128GB model.
There is no official word on its availability in India yet. But considering the company sells Realme 5i in the country, we expect the handset to hit our shores in the coming weeks.
