Realme 15 Series Early Debut in India
While most global markets are still waiting for the Realme 15 series, India actually saw the lineup earlier than anyone else. Back in July 2025, Realme introduced the Realme 15 5G and the Realme 15 Pro in the country.

This early launch in India gives fans an early glimpse of the family’s design language and priorities.

Scheduled to launch in September, the device will be available in China and the Philippines. In the Philippines, the device is already up for preorder, enticing early committers with freebies such as the TechLife Smart Band Fit, TechLife Clip-On Earbuds 2, and up to a 1-Year Screen Damage Protection Plan. The promotional slogan “Night Shooting Wonder” also makes it clear that Realme is putting photography, particularly low-light camera performance, at the forefront of its marketing strategy.
