Looking for an affordable 5G phone? Realme 7 5G is the answer!
A smartphone is something that we can’t live without in the present day. It has become an essential part of our lives and most of our daily tasks are achieved with the help of a phone. It has never been any more difficult than this to choose a phone for ourselves thanks to the plethora of options that are available to us. And with the recent trend of 5G, every brand and company are running the race to offer the best to the users.
The same is being followed by Realme amongst many others. Realme has been successful in bombarding the smartphone segment especially in terms of the budget segment with the release of phones like the Realme 7, then the Realme 7 Pro and now the Realme 7 5G. Even though most of these phones are similar to each other in terms of their names, they are nowhere similar when it comes to the integrated features and their specifications. As mentioned above, with the trend of 5G, everyone is looking for an upgrade and looking for phones that are 5G enabled and I am no different.
The Realme 7 5G falls under the sub-$300 segment and before you make any pre-conceived judgements about the phone on the basis of its price, let me tell you it is far from the kind of budget phones that we used to get before. Realme has ensured to integrate the best of features into the phone while also maintaining the affordable price tag on it.
The first thing that we look at while choosing a phone is its display since that is the first thing that calls us to it. The display of the Realme 7 is a 6.5-inches, 1080 x 2400 along with a 90.5 per cent screen-to-body ratio. On the left side of the display, we get a 16-megapixel wide-angle selfie camera in a small hole-punch notch. One of the most dominant features of the phone is the take-worthy 120Hz display. One would usually expect such a rapid refresh rate on flagship phones, but Realme proved it otherwise. A 120Hz refresh rate in a phone that is priced so low is just amazing.
Coming to what lends its power to the phone, Realme has certainly not made a compromise here. The phone comes with the MediaTek Dimensity 800U chipset and let me tell you this is more than just another 5G processor. It has an octa-core, dual-cluster design (2+6). There are 2 x high-performance Cortex-A76 cores running @2.4GHz and 6 x power-efficient Cortex-A55 cores running @2.0GHz.
MediaTek’s Dimensity 800U offers following features:
* Support for 120Hz FHD+ displays with high refresh rates for faster and smoother gaming and media streaming.
* Support for the HDR10+ standard for enhanced visual quality, plus the integrated MediaTek MiraVision PQ engine with HDR optimization for various types of videos.
* Support for flexible camera placement with up to 64MP cameras and quad camera capabilities.
* Integrated APU and ISP to provide a series of AI camera-enhancing functions.
* Support for voice wakeup and dual-mic noise reduction technology, lowering the standby power consumption of a voice assistant.
As far as the optics of the phone is concerned, the primary camera is 48MP using Samsung’s S5KGM1ST sensor tech. The primary sensor on the Realme 7 5G is good enough for most people and produces solid shots under decent lighting conditions. And its accompanying 8MP ultra-wide-angle lens is perfectly serviceable, offering a 119-degree field of view. There’s also a 2MP macro lens, allowing close-up shots from within a focal range of 4cm.
Along with this, Realme also ensured to pack a good and long-lasting battery with a 5000mAh to the Realme 7 5G. Therefore, there wouldn’t be the worry of having to charge your device time and again or about being handy with the charger at all times.
Overall, Realme 7 5G is a powerful 5G phone especially if you consider the balance between the impressive features and the price of it.
