One of the biggest names in the business industry, Coca-Cola, has been reported to release a branded phone later this year. The smartphone is to launch in India in the next couple of months.
The leaked phone has a dual camera setup with a LED flash that looks similar to phones already in production, such as the Realme 10, Realme C33, and Oppo A78.
The most prominent aspect of the Coca-Cola phone is the large branding of the company designed into the gradient back panel of the phone that illuminates a light or dark colour depending on how light hits it.
From all indications, it seems the new Coca-Cola phone will be a collaboration between the beverage giant and Realme, a mobile phone-producing company.
Realme took to their Twitter account to announce the release of their new product with this tweet: “Something is fizzing at #realme.” Watch this space for more.” The tweet was posted with a link that redirects users to the homepage of the new Cola phone and the tagline, “Realme is getting refreshing.”
Twitter tech influencer Mukul Sharma also confirmed the phone launch via a tweet: “Here is the all-new Cola Phone, and I can confirm that the device is launching this quarter in India. Coca-Cola is collaborating with a smartphone brand for this new phone.”
Those that do not know what the Realme Phone brand is, might ask why they are collaborating with Coca-Cola. Here are answers to your questions: Realme is a consumer manufacturing company located in Shenzhen, China. The company was founded in 2018 by a former vice president of Oppo, Sky Li.
During the company’s early days, it was launched as a sub-brand of Oppo before launching its brand under BBK Electronics and entering the mobile phone market with the launch of the Realme X series, consisting of the Realme X, Realme X Master, and Realme X Lite, which sold over 1 million phones in India over the three days of Diwali.
It is a well-known mobile phone brand in over 20 countries, especially Asian countries. With the milestones that Realme has been able to reach in the short period they have been in the mobile phone manufacturing industry, they are a great candidate for collaboration with Coca-Cola.
The date and official specifications of the phone are yet to be released, but when released, would you like to own a Coca-Cola-branded phone, and how much will you be willing to pay for it?
