itel A50C is official, because the A50 is not cheap enough: See the specs and price

itel A50C arrives as an even more entry-level 4G Android smartphone than its sibling, the itel A50, by downgrading a number of options that include: RAM, storage capacity, battery capacity, and charging speed.

It comes in three colour options (Sapphire Black, Dawn Blue, and Misty Aqua) and unlike the A50 which has four storage options (2/64GB, 3/64GB, 4/64GB, 4/128GB), the itel A50C has only one with 2GB RAM and 32GB internal storage, and this is what makes the lower price tag possible.
