Key points

  • The Realme 16 Pro Harry Potter Edition sold out completely within 24 hours of its launch.
  • The device features a textured brown back, a golden owl camera accent, and 80W charging.
  • Priced at 62,999 INR, the phone includes themed bookmarks and a Hogwarts-style trunk box.

Realme has launched the 16 Pro Harry Potter Edition in India. This special model is based on the standard 16 Pro phone. It arrived with a full set of themed accessories. The entire first batch sold out within 24 hours of release.

The phone costs 62,999 Indian Rupees. It comes with 12GB of memory and 256GB of storage. Buyers receive an 80W charger and a themed case. The packaging includes bookmarks for all four Hogwarts houses.

Themed hardware and packaging details

GSMArena reviewed the device and its unique box. The phone sits in a small trunk styled like Hogwarts luggage. The back panel has a leather-like texture in brown. Gold accents highlight the camera area and frame.

A golden owl emblem sits between the camera lenses. The Hogwarts crest on the back changes color under UV light. The diamond pattern on the back is inspired by wizard chess. The included case matches the phone's brown color scheme.

Software features and practical limits

The phone runs Realme UI 7.0 on Android 16. It includes over 30 custom icons. A special boot animation shows Harry Potter themes. The lock screen features a custom wax seal effect.

However, the themed visuals stop at the main screen. Once you open other apps, the interface looks standard. The 6.78-inch display is large for media consumption. The 7,000mAh battery promises long usage times.

High demand causes immediate scarcity

The initial stock disappeared just one day after launch. This makes the phone very hard to find. The rapid sell-out reflects strong fan interest. Buyers must wait for restocks or pay more.
