    The phone is ok for its price

    I bought it in May 2022, it worked well until 2023. From this year, system updates began to come out, etc. After several updates, it deteriorated greatly, began to heat up, freeze, and in general the updates ruined it.

    It leaves much to be desired

    I bought it a couple of months ago for 168 dollars (6/128) with quality-price ratio, what it offers is good, its screen is decent, 120Hz, it has good resolution and the brightness responds well except in situations with a lot of sunlight since it still You see the screen clearly, the colors look somewhat saturated, the processor responded well in daily use and in gaming it fails, it runs any game on medium graphics (except Genshin Impact, Fortnite, Ark or games like that, those are directly on low) some others. It runs in high graphics or ultra like Mobile Legends, with 120hz and that configuration has overheated, reaching a maximum of 47° even in low graphics, its battery responded well now it discharges much faster it seems that the percentage drops every 5 minutes, in my case and with medium use with two hours of play it lasted me the day. Its fast charging is poor since it only reaches 18w. Even though it has only one speaker, it is not bad and it sounds good. I hardly use the camera but the photos are decent within what is possible for its price along with the video quality, the network signal, the GPS and the Wi-Fi are very good. To date, it still receives updates from Realme as extra information.

    Pros
    • Cost (if you get it at its real price)
    • 120Hz
    • Its operating system is good
    • 5000mah
    • Good fingerprint reader and easy unlock
    Cons
    • 18w fast charge
    • Headphone jack on the bottom
    • overheating
    • Lag in light games
    • applications close by themselves

    good but with a drawback

    I cannot qualify it as such, it is a great device, I have the Indian version, the only bad thing is the networks, I had the network that uses band 28 and this version does not have it.

    Pros
    • It has a headphone jack
    • good general performance on a day-to-day basis
    • very good face recognition
    Cons
    • lack of band 28
    • the track sometimes gets stuck

    A very nice phone

    It is a phone with a pleasant experience its fast charge 18w the battery lasts me all day the sound is good the cameras in my opinion are normal but the videos at night there is a lot of noise very good gaming experience in demanding games the experience is quite pleasant and it cost me 200 dollars I understand the reduction of cameras by realme but it should have more fast charging 33w more RAM memory with 4gb it is not much or little but I prefer at least 8gb the bad cameras charger night videos and night photos are relatively passable in my opinion for 200 dollars it is a very good purchase

    The worst mobile of my life

    I've been with him for a year and everything is wrong. Lag, it gets caught many times, the camera sucks, the flash is almost non-existent, it does strange things with the sound, the bluetooth connection does whatever it wants, the operating system is a chestnut... Many more things, I don't feel like continuing, but really, I don't understand why it has such good ratings.

What is a Ki score?
Ki is an automatic score based on the specifications and prices of devices. It is calculated using over 200 variables to rank smartphones, tablets and other devices from best to worst.
How do we calculate the Ki?

In this case, to determine the score we evaluate 5 general aspects:

  • Design and screen
  • Hardware and performance
  • Camera
  • Connectivity
  • Battery

Once these 5 factors have been rated, we introduce the price variable. This means that any two devices with the same ratings get a different Ki score for quality vs price.

Even a device objectively worse than another may have a higher Ki score if it has a better price.

Does the Ki score change?

The Ki varies as time goes by. As new devices with better specifications enter the market the Ki score of older devices will go down, always being compensated of their decrease in price.
