Realme launches Harry Potter edition smartphone and earbuds in India

Realme has launched the Realme 16 Pro 5G Harry Potter Edition in the country, priced at ₹ 62,999. Released on 21 September 2026, the special phone comes in Magic Brown with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, and sold out soon after its launch. Buyers can find it through Flipkart and retail stores across the country. The phone features a textured rear panel inspired by Wizard's Chess, a Hogwarts crest, and a camera area modelled after Hedwig the owl. Under ultraviolet light, the crest reveals the four house colours, though the company notes this effect may fade with daily use. The frame also carries the words "Welcome to Hogwarts". Software features include Hogwarts Castle wallpapers, startup and fingerprint animations, and over 30 redesigned app icons. The gift box includes a Hogwarts acceptance letter, house bookmarks, character postcards, and a themed phone case. Hardware specifications include a 200MP main camera, a 50MP selfie camera with optical image stabilisation, and Hogwarts house watermarks. It runs on a MediaTek Dimensity 7300 Max processor with an AMOLED screen supporting a 144Hz refresh rate. A 7000mAh battery supports 80W fast charging, bypass charging, and reverse charging. Realme has also released the Buds T500 Pro Harry Potter edition priced at ₹ 6,999.
