Counterpoint Research is quoted by Realme to say, “Realme has a strong momentum in India driven by its aggressive specs and spotting changing market trends. This helped Realme 3 to become the No. 1 model on online channels for the first time in March 2019." Counterpoint independently confirmed the statistic to Gadgets 360.

Further, Realme CEO Madhav Sheth is quoted to say, “We are delighted to share the news of Realme's latest achievement. Realme has already created records by selling more than 5 lakh units of Realme 3 in just three weeks of its sale. Today it has earned another milestone by receiving the No. 1 position on online channels in March 2019 by Counterpoint Research. We are sure Realme 3 will go a long way with the never-ending love from our customers and fans.”

To recall, as per Counterpoint and IDC, Realme became the fourth largest smartphone brand in India in Q4 2018.
