At the software front, the Realme C85 runs on Realme UI 6.0 on Android 15. In terms of connectivity, you get 4G or 5G, depending on the variant you pick, WiFi 5, Bluetooth 5.3 with LE support, and NFC.
Last but not least, the Realme C85 is also rated at up to IP69K for water and dust resistance, and is even said to be capable of defending against an array of 36 liquids, such as chlorinated pool water, saltwater splashes, and corrosive household spills.
In fact, the phone earned the title of “Most People Performing a Mobile Phone Water-Resistance Test Simultaneously” in the Guinness World Records, and has also passed the military-grade MIL-STD-810H compliance, allowing it to survive 2-meter drops onto hard surfaces.
