How “Dare to Leap” brought realme into the global mainstream
Five years ago, realme entered the crowded smartphone OEM market as an underdog and quickly defied expectations. Many prognosticators doubted the new brand’s ability to survive in a crowded market with established structures. Faced with these doubts, realme’s young, ambitious team chose “Dare to Leap” for its brand concept, and stayed true to its mission of bringing leap-forward technologies and design to its young consumer base. The brand broke into this nearly impenetrable market and set off on a trajectory of rapid growth.
An unlikely breakthrough
realme achieved incredible growth with its “light assets, short channel modes, and e-commerce prioritization” strategy of the last five years. In the two years after it was established, the company was named the world’s fastest-growing smartphone brand for four consecutive quarters (Counterpoint) and was ranked 7th in the global smartphone market. In 2019, realme made a powerful entry into the competitive Chinese market. Amid a challenging market environment, realme seized opportunities presented by the global 5G upgrade cycle and quickly positioned itself as a “5G popularizer” by introducing a range of popular 5G products globally. The strategy was effective, and realme became the fastest in the world to reach US$50 million in sales in the third quarter of 2020 (Counterpoint). In 2021, realme achieved another milestone, became the world’s fastest brand to achieve US$100 million in sales (Strategy Analytics), and entered the global top six for the first time (Counterpoint Report). The brand had achieved what many had called impossible.
In a fiercely competitive market dominated by established industry giants, realme beat the odds and entered the mainstream. realme ranked in the top five in 30 markets around the world in just three years, establishing realme as the world’s youngest mainstream smartphone brand.
As a young and fearless brand, realme’s “light assets, short channel modes, and e-commerce prioritization” strategy helped this company quickly conquer more than 10 major regional markets. The company broke record after record. In the two years after it was established, realme was named the world’s fastest-growing smartphone brand for four consecutive quarters and was ranked 7th in the global smartphone market. In Q3 of 2020, realme became the first mobile phone brand in the world to sell US$50 million units in less than two-and-a-half years (Counterpoint Report).
In 2021, realme went from strength to strength, and hit a record-breaking US$100 million in sales in just 37 months (Strategy Analytics). That same year, realme was ranked 6th in the global smartphone market for the first time, becoming the youngest mainstream smartphone brand in the world.
realme’s success can be attributed to its unwavering commitment to its “Dare to Leap” brand philosophy. Its young leadership team boasts an average age of only 30 years old and has a unique insight into realme’s young customer base. They stay on top of user needs, adapt quickly to market changes and consistently deliver products with leap-forward performance and design. realme has managed to “leapfrog” its industry competitors. The company continues to surpass its own goals and achieve the impossible.
In the first thousand days of its operations, realme achieved breakthroughs and won the confidence of consumers around the world. In 2020, realme was entitled to 2020 China’s “50 Most Innovative Companies” list by Fast Company. The business magazine remarked that realme “continues to grow and evolve in good times and remains resilient in adversity.” The publication recognized the company’s ability to embrace change and adapt while also fulfilling its social responsibilities.
The COVID-19 pandemic hit while realme was only in its second year. Faced with this, along with a score of other adverse conditions, realme stayed true to its “Dare to Leap” foundations and met all challenges head-on. During this time, “long-term growth” became the company’s keywords, and “Simply Better” Strategy and “Market Cultivation” Strategy were made top priorities.
Over the last five years, realme has stayed true to its mission, showing the world the potential of Chinese technology brands. The company understands that its popularity among young users goes beyond its “Dare to Leap” philosophy; realme’s popularity is built on “leap-forward products” and deep insight into user needs.
Reaching for higher peaks and greater heights for the next five years
realme’s rapid growth sets the company apart. However, the industry’s increasing challenges have made achieving growth more difficult. The brand adapts quickly to find unique paths forward and has never shied away from a challenge. The company is adhering to the “long-term growth” approach it introduced last year, as well as its “Simply Better” Strategy and “Market Cultivation” Strategy to unify its global product line.
On the occasion of its fifth anniversary, realme remains committed to its initial mission, placing users at the core and increasing investment in research and development across six major domains: Display, Imaging, Gaming, Charging, Chipset, and Craftsmanship
