The month of May in India was a silent one when it comes to product launches in general. We had only a handful of phone launches in India due to lockdown and the Covid-19 pandemic.
In May 2021, India witnessed just six smartphone launches as compared to 22 launches from April 2021. Mi India launched a new addition to the Redmi Note 10 series while Infinix launched one of the cheapest phones with a 90Hz screen refresh rate display.
Further, Tecno and Lava added their own budget smartphones in India. Itel on the other hand launched what we can call one of the cheapest smartphone available in India right now. Lastly, the show stopper for the month of May was Realme's affordable flagship phone, the Realme X7 Max.
