That said, we looked at other Realme phones and there doesn't seem to be any price hike there. At the time of writing, only the above-mentioned phones have gone costlier in India. We are not sure why Realme felt the need to hike the Realme 16 Pro series pricing since both phones launched in India in January 2026. They are fairly new and have already launched with a substantial jump over the Realme 15 series.
