Realme launched Realme 5i, which is quite similar to Realme 5 and Realme 5. Which includes all the similar specifications and designs? Let’s find out if you need a Realme 5i or if Realm Smartly has launched a new device on the market. First things first, they introduced their new Sunrise design pattern, but the design of the device remains the same, including curved edges and a quad rear camera setup. Not to mention, this remains the best comfort to hold alongside the 3.5mm audio jack and Micro USD. Know the complete specifications of Realme 5i.
 
This device comes with a 6.52-inch LCD with 720×1600 pixels and a 20:9 aspect ratio. There is a MINI-Waterdrop notch on the top of the display holding a front camera. Meanwhile, it delivers a great viewing angle and is good in outdoor conditions as well. Even a single bottom-firing speaker is loud enough for the experience. In terms of camera performance, it comes with a 12MP quad rear camera housing a 12MP f/1.8 primary + 8MP f/2.25 wide-angle lens + 2MP f/2.4 macro + 2MP f/2.4 depth sensor.
 
It gives you decent detail, colour reproduction, and quick focus in daylight, but with a wide-angle lens. Macron gives sharp shots, but not great detail. Taking portrait shots was good, but it didn’t give you the option to manage the depth of field effect. While the front is an 8 MP f/2.0, it is below average. There is EIS for 1080, not 4K video recording, but it’s below average.
As for security, it comes with a rear-mounted fingerprint scanner, slightly higher than what we are used to, but you will get used to it after a couple of days. This is not an issue or deal-breaker because it has a rapid face-unlock feature using a selfie camera, and you can use a combination of face-unlock and fingerprint scanning, both of which are rapid.
 
Under the hood, the device is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 665 SoC coupled with 5GB of RAM and 64GB of onboard storage. Which provides good performance during multi-tasking and playing games without killing apps in the background. Pubg Mobile’s playable default setting at low-setting, smooth graphics, and medium frame rates gives you a 3% battery drop during the first 20 minutes of the game.
 
Furthermore, to power the device, it is equipped with a 5000mAh battery, which gives you a full day of general use. Also, it bundles a 10W standard charger, which takes 2 hours to completely charge. It runs on Android 9.0 Pie-based ColorOS 6 out of the box.
