Realme XT Review with Pros & Cons Practical Mid Range Smartphone

**A Review of the Realme XT**

As I'm walking around with my phone, I can see how it's going to record video. It's definitely an interesting feature - let's move on to the cons of this phone. Frankly speaking, I didn't find many cons, but let's take a look at them anyway. One thing that caught my attention was the always-on display. While I don't have a problem with it personally, I think it's hardly functional. It just shows a mix of missed calls and notifications, but that's about it. I hope they update it soon to make it more useful.

Another feature that's worth mentioning is the camera. The Realme XT has a quad-camera setup on one side of the phone, which can be a bit inconvenient when placing it on a desk. It also has a 2-megapixel macro lens for close-up shots, but I have to say that it's not doing a great job right now.

**Design and Display**

The Realme XT is designed with a durable design in mind. The phone is made of plastic and metal, which gives it a premium look and feel. However, the build quality could be better. As I mentioned earlier, the phone has a lot of moving parts that can make it wobble when placed on a desk.

The display of the Realme XT is one of its strongest features. It has a 6.5-inch screen with a resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels. The screen is bright and vibrant, making it perfect for watching videos or playing games. However, I wish they had improved the always-on display feature to make it more useful.

**Performance**

The Realme XT is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 712 processor, which provides fast performance and efficient battery life. It also has 6GB of RAM, which should be enough for most users. The phone's storage capacity starts at 64GB, but it also has a dedicated microSD card slot, making it easy to expand the storage.

In my experience, the Realme XT is very responsive and smooth. I've been using it with my primary SIM and the second sim for almost nine days now, and I haven't had any issues. However, I did mention earlier that some people might be disappointed by the lack of features like a pop-up camera or improved slow-motion video recording.

**Conclusion**

Overall, I think the Realme XT is a very practical smartphone that offers great value for its price. If you're looking for a phone with a pop-up camera, then the Realme X might be the better option for you. However, if you don't care about the camera and want a future-proof device with 6GB of RAM and 64GB of storage, then the Realme XT is a great choice.

I would recommend going for the 6GB RAM variant instead of the base model, as it will provide more than enough power for most users. Additionally, I hope that the manufacturer will update the always-on display feature to make it more useful.

**Comparison with Other Devices**

The Realme XT is similar to other smartphones in its class, such as the Realme X and the Realme 5 Pro. However, it sits in the middle of the pack in terms of features and performance. While it's not the best camera phone out there, it's still a great option for those who want a practical device with good battery life.

In conclusion, I think the Realme XT is a great choice for anyone looking for a reliable and feature-packed smartphone at an affordable price.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enhi there this is Ranji than in this video let's do the full review of this real me XD here have been actually testing at this one for more than 7 days so I'll divide it between the pros and cons what do I like about this one and what do I do not like and this is actually very close to the real me ex that had reviewed earlier but again the big thing is that now this one comes with the quad camera setup and the 64 megapixel camera sensor but before we proceed between the pros and cons let's talk about the specs this really XD is having a six point four inch Super AMOLED screen and it's separated by Gorilla Glass five it comes in four six or eight gigabytes of RAM and we have that great quad camera set over that sixty four megapixel 8 megapixel wide two megapixel black depth and 2 megapixel for macro and other specs are on the screen as you can see for your reference so let's break it down between the pros and cons let's first talk about the pros and the first thing that you'll notice is this green on this one this has that 6.2 4-inch screen and now we are having that AMOLED screen hence the viewing angles are also nice on this one well you do have that notch but again I don't mind it personally I feel I'm okay with these notches rather than mechanical parts that move around so again the screen quality is actually really good on this one the colors are produced accurately on this one I don't have a problem generally we just go with AMOLED screen but this one is actually a good quality omelette a screen that they have put and as it's an AMOLED screen this one also has that in display fingerprint scanner and as you can see it is really fast in fact I would say at this in display fingerprint scanner for my what do you say very rough testing I notice that busy.you faster than the real me X so again a very fast in display fingerprint scanner as you can see just tap it and it unlocks so again that's also a good thing now coming to the brightness also here I like the fact that the screen is actually pretty bright again as you can see I'm indoors I'm just lowering the brightness it's very bright and if you keep it amount of brightness even in outdoor conditions it's easily visible so I mean I don't have a problem and moving towards the back earlier with the real me devices we also always had a problem that it was plastic polycarbonate this one is actually glass and this is actually got a lot less but again if you look at it looks like plastic but it's actually glass so we also have that in display fingerprint scanner as I've told you and technically if you might have noticed it does have that always-on screen it's not known as always on screen but you have that by default it's not enabled but you can enable it if you go to the settings and if you go to display oops if you go to display and brightness here it has this funny name actually screen off clock it's called and you have to enable it but again this is not a full-fledged what do you say always-on I will talk about that in the context but yes you do have this and I would suggest if you're buying this phone enable this because it also shows you when you pick up the phone where is that in display finger it's kind of so it really helps you but again let's move on and now if we talk about the headphone jack it has a headphone jack 3.5 mm headphone jack and I did test it quite a bit with various headphones and even reel me your phones and I have to say the audio output that you're getting why the headphone jack is actually really good and the volume level calls are also actually really high on this one so again no problems with the 3.5 mm headphone jack and I am did also test this one with quite a few Bluetooth headset for example the me Bluetooth headset even the means own wireless what is a good headset and stuff and I mean I have no problems the Bluetooth connectivity is solid on this and I had no issues so again in that respect also you don't have to worry now as you're talking about the sound and let's talk also about the speaker it has just a single speaker here at the bottom as you can see but again it is actually really loud so again in most instances I never had to keep the volume level more than 75% it's actually really loud but again a single speaker so again in terms of volume also you don't have to worry now moving to the general you are again it's typically color OS so you have that you also have a half three on this and as it's running on the snapdragon 7 neck what do you say twelve chip said again no issues regarding what do you say lack i never notice any lag or anything and I'm using this fold that you are again as you can see seven tons of apps in what is a memory and I never had a problem with this one these are the gestures you can always have that regular one but I have enable these gestures because earlier I was using the pixel so got used to that they're very similar to that so I mean in terms of what he say usage and rom management also has been done well on this one I did not have a problem with that so in those aspects it's actually good but again the base variant is four four gigabytes I would suggest as it's a custom skin off for the six gigabyte round million that would be a better investment because obviously the Android ten will also come on this and you noticing that Android is becoming heavier and heavier but again nevertheless the RAM management is fine when shuttle usage was not a problem because of the Snapdragon 7th well chipset now go into the battery life this has a four thousand milliamp hour battery and again I liked earlier some of the Lumia devices that came with the stamp rack in 720p even the battery life on this one was actually really good as you can see from the charts you can get a screen on time anywhere between about five and a half to about eight arts easily and if you're sort of casual user can easily last for about one and a half five days and also I like the fact that now finally real me has started to give us sot times in the battery starts earlier they never used to do that so I'm happy about that so battery life is not an issue and also in the box you'd get that fast charger so again charge is pretty quickly so no issues regarding that now moving to gaming again it's having the Snapdragon 712 SOC and I did play some games just for testing asphalt and pubsey and it ran fine now the big thing about this device is the rated cameras that we have and that quad camera set up with that 64 megapixel so again yes I would say again with the 64 megapixel if you take regular shots it's gonna use pixels binning for example most of the 48 megapixel do that it's indirectly a 12 megapixel image on this it's a 16 megapixel image but you do have an option of going all the way to that 64 mega pixel mode if you really want alpha RUR 64 but again I didn't see a huge difference when I was using this about the file size is actually became very big but then regular shot where with 64 it does pixel pinning and it's a 16 megapixel image size were about five to six megabyte but in that 64 mega it was going about 19 to 20 MB the only big difference that I would say I notice from 48 megapixel to the 64 is that sometimes when you zoom and you have a little bit more detail but anyways here are some of the sample shots that I have taken with this real me XD and again as you can see I am outdoor conditions as we expected I did a good job the color reproduction was curved even human subjects as you can see it did a good job and the good thing is that even in artificial lighting conditions again as you can see it did produce some pretty good results even skin tones will produce nicely and you also have that portrait bouquet effects and all those things so in terms of camera I would say the camera is actually good on this one dragon if you're expecting a huge difference from the 48 megapixel that's not the case now I'm going to the front-facing camera it's a 16 megapixel over here and again as you can see even with the front-facing camera at the performance was good and even an artificial lighting conditions I feel the camera was doing actually a pretty good job and now for some video samples that I've shot with this one shooting this video with the real me XT and I'm using it handheld and I'm just walking guys to give you an idea how is the stabilization and here I've kept it to actually pen a BB but you can actually even take it up to 4k shooting this video with the front-facing camera of the VLE XT and I'm recording it at 1080p and this claims to have electronic image stabilization even with the front-facing camera and so as you can see I'm just walking around so this should give me an idea how will be the video recording if we shoot video like this that is a lot Skype video so these are the good things about this real me XD now let's move to the cons and frankly speaking I didn't find a lot of cons but let's come back to that always-on display that we have yes it lights up like this I don't have a problem but this is hardly functional it just shows this and if you just get a mix missed call or something a 4 icon comes but apart from that it simply does not show you any notification so technically for me yes there but it's sort of useless I just hope we're me with an update ads what do you say notifications icons on this one that would make this one PHA more useful for example like they did with the screen on time earlier what he said earlier my phone's never used to show us proper screen on time so I hope they add that functionality with the update next thing is that and we have the divide angle lens and yes you can take wide-angle photographs with this one this is regular this is wide-angle but the thing is that for some strange reason they haven't enabled the video recording as of now with that wide-angle lens I don't know why but that is sort of missing one thing I have to say is that real me and some of the earlier used to have problem with the slow motion that is fixed so I hope they fix some of these flaws that I'm mentioning for example that always-on display then improving that wide-angle and video they should enable now as we are talking about the cameras as you can see it has that quad camera and that place this on the side so whenever you place it on the desk like this as you can see it wobbles this doesn't personally affect me but again you know someone who likes to type while it's on the desk then again as you can see it's gonna irritate to you and moving to the camera setup again we also have that 2 megapixel macro lens on this one this is used for close-up shot but I finally feel as of now it's not doing that great job apart from that it's a very functional device the only gone I would say is that real me is now as you can see these items they have sort of pushing this they have this call hot games or whatever and when you click on that they are trying to push their own what do you say Store to download apps and I feel that's sort of unnecessary because we already have Google Play Store if a user really wants to download the apps they will use this so I don't like the fact that they are sort of not pushing this one but apart from that I would say this was a very functional device I have used it with my primary sim and the second reason for almost nine days now and I did not have a problem ok I completely forgot about it moving to the earpiece also the earpiece call quality was cut I had
