New Delhi: Smartphone makers Xiaomi and Realme Wednesday said they have postponed launches of their upcoming smartphones in India owing to the nationwide 21-day lockdown.

“With respect to the announcement made by our Prime Minister March 24, we have decided to suspend all upcoming launches including #realmeNarzo series. Time for us to focus on our family and ourselves. Stay at home, stay safe and cooperate with local authorities,” tweeted Realme India CEO Madhav Sheth.
