Specifications:
Design and Display:
Realme, with its XT, has used almost the same layout which we have already seen in Realme X. The display is even the same as well. Very much unlike Realme X with a pop-up camera mechanism, Realme XT is offering a waterdrop-like notch for a selfie snapper. And outback, a rear camera module is positioned on the top left corner without any fingerprint scanner. Hence, one can enjoy an on-screen fingerprint scanner to get it unlocked. The front side is covered by an impressive 6.4-inches display – based on Super AMOLED along with a notch (waterdrop). Performance-wise, the display is vivid and vibrant with small bezels, and there is a little amount of chin. Besides, Super AMOLED display helps with a best of darks. In terms of build quality and its overall look, Realme XT has done an excellent job. And in all, it feels good while using and holding in hand – thanks to its 3D curves that make it easy to hold.
Storage and Hardware:
Digging down inside Realme XT, there is a Qualcomm Snapdragon 712 Chipset which makes it company’s second smartphone to have it after Realme 5 Pro. The Chipset is based on 10nm architecture – partnered with Adreno 616 GPU – thus, it’s offering almost 10% fast performance as compared to Snapdragon 710 Chipset. Not only this, it offers around 2 times better AI performance and around 45% better performance in terms of graphics. It’s up to snuff performance-wise as Realme XT can run multiple apps simultaneously and graphic-enriched games without any glitch or hiccup.
You won’t notice any delay or lag in routine use given memory-heavy applications and social media. When it comes to extensive multitasking and heavy gaming, Realme XT shines as well. There is a total of three models to choose from – 4GB with 64GB, 6GB with 64GB and 8GB with 128GB. A triple card slot is being offered by Realme as well for its Realme XT which means one can use two nano-SIM cards and a microSD card at once.
Quad-Camera Configuration:
As mentioned above, Realme XT comes loaded with rear cameras on its rear. It’s the company’s 3rd smartphone after Realme 5 and 5 Pro that flaunts a quad-camera setup. The first 64MP sensor is partnered with three other sensors to capture different scenes. The other sensors include 8MP ultra-wide, 2MP dedicated macro camera and 2MP depth sensor.
The primary camera captures excellent pictures with a broad range of dynamics and contrast. The reproduction of colours may look a bit overpowering, but others might prefer it. The shutter in auto mode is exceptionally fast without any virtual lag. The details and zoom capacity you will receive (as long as you are in the right lighting conditions) will give you far more space for editing. Probably you will get better without ever turning it on, but the choice is available if you need it. The selfie camera, on the other hand, is 16MP that comes with multiple shooting modes as well as numerous filters to enhance selfies. The AI-powered performs excellently and captures a lot of details and colours.
Software:
The phone is running on Android Pie 9.0 operating system with ColorOS 6 UI on top. The user interface is filled with characteristics and bloatware and provides smooth efficiency like any other non-stock device. Bloatware and customisations are available, but it’s not really bad. In their most recent software edition, Realme has added a ton of characteristics, which looks fresh and sorted.
Battery:
Last but absolutely no the least, Realme XT is comprising a slightly bigger battery with a capacity of 4000mAh. But it’s compared to Realme 5 quite smaller as Realme 5 offers customers with a hefty 5000mAh battery. The handset is supporting VOOC 3.0 super-fast charging too with a Type-C powered 20W fast charger. According to reports, Realme XT can be charged from 0% to 100% in less than 80 minutes, and as far as its performance is concerned, it can last throughout the day with heavy usage and almost two days with moderate usage. With mixed activities such as performing multiple tasks, playing games or continuous video playback, it can shoot up an entire day without being charged. As mentioned, Realme offers a fast 20W charger in the box – therefore, you no need to get it from the market separately.
