The Realme X is a solid mid-ranger that loads up the X factor by being the most affordable phone with a pop-up selfie camera
Jul 15 2019 By Nitansh RastogiThe best way to look at the Realme X is to consider it as the Realme 3 Pro (review) that has undergone cosmetic surgery in order to offer an immersive viewing area, while improving the imaging performance. With a starting price tag of Rs 16,999 for the 4GB RAM variant, Realme`s latest scores high on almost every aspect as the review below would delve into. It`s also interesting that the higher-end version ships with 8GB of RAM, and there isn`t any 6GB model, which justifies the Rs 19,999 sticker price for this edition.

I was a bit sceptical if buying a realme phone. But I heard from my friends that realme ui had made huge improvement in the rubbish color os that was seen before. The product came one day earlier than before and I was happy with the packaging and delivery. The performance is alright, nothing to write home about. You can feel minor ui lag while using but overall it's running smoothly. I haven't played much gaming but when with heavy usage the phone didn't get hot which was very surprising and happy for me. The screen is absolutely splendid. No issues. 1080p is more than enough and it is vibrant. The absence of a notch makes it an even more pleasurable experience. AMOLED panel by Samsung gives deep blacks and punch color. The pop up camera works well and it retracts when it detects a drop. The front camera is decent but I don't care as I use the front camera just for video calls and nothing more. The rear camera is alright too. But it could have been better. The 48mp sensor is very capable but I feel that it is not used to it's fullest in this phone. As a person who uses a professional DSLR every single day the camera is just average. Pictures after pretty Sharp and over saturated. The video is also acceptable. 960fps is just a died and in real world it cannot be used as the quality is really low and requires a lot of light. 120 and 240 is much more useable. Night more is also acceptable. Nothing to get very excited about. Overall an ok camera performance. The battery life was great for me. It could easily last for a full day with the 3700mah battery. And the 20w vooc Chester is pretty fast too. So no complaints there. The decimal point in the charging percentage is cool. The software is much better. I am currently running on realme ui 1.0 and Android 10 and it is much cleaner than before. Animations are better and it feels a bit like often is now. The fingerprint sensor is pretty fast and animations are exciting. The face unlock works pretty fast too but I won't recommend using that as it is a moving part and susceptible to damage. The phone feels pretty light in hand and it's well balanced. The provider back cover is good for protection but bad for looks. The phone looks awesome and I bought the blueish color that looks super cool. The buttons are tactile and the power button is colored. The speakers are Loud and clear. The microphone and earpiece quality is also great. The headphone jack is good too with Dolby Atmos taking care of the rest. The Bluetooth is also great and had no issues with connection or streaming quality. Realme X is a great buy even in 2020. For 16k it's pretty good and unique unlike other realme devices. It's better looking than the xt x2 5 pro and the rest. Overall a great phone.
