realme 10 full-review
No.1 smartphone brand realme launched realme 10, another best-value midrange smartphone, last November 9, 2022.
Introduced as the Terminator phone, realme 10 aims to target four major concerns of casual and heavy mobile phone users alike: Poor gaming performance; lag, delay, and freezing; dull display experience; and poor photography experience.
With few weeks of usage, VPTech Team will share with you realme 10’s epic performance and new vision.
realme 10’s all-day Performance
After the successful midrange photography lineup series of realme 9, they aim to focus on power-efficiency this time. Packed with a 5000mAh Battery with 33W SUPER VOOC Charge, you don’t need to worry about running out of juice for the whole day. This feature gets you prepared for the Christmas rush with its capability to go from 0% to 50% battery with just 28 minutes of charging time. Without of course, sacrificing the other specs.
The realme 10 is powered by MediaTek Helio G99 Processor built with a 6nm architecture along with a powerArm Mali-G57 MC2 GPU paired with an octa-core setup. The powerful engine (or should I say processor) has a lot to contribute with it’s over-all performance. Paired with the battery, it is perfect for all-day gaming, smooth streaming, fast display and overall reliable connectivity.
Another POWER-UP is the 200% UltraBoom speaker. This loud and crisp audio lets you enjoy gaming, binge watching, social media browsing, and sound tripping without the need for another speaker to carry-around.
What you SEE is what you get!
Continuing realme 9’s powerful camera lineup, realme 10 is equipped with a dedicated high-resolution 50MP Color AI Camera paired with Nightscape and Street Mode 2.0. This main camera combination helps you capture photos at any given situation, or celebration! Of course, a 16 megapixel front camera completes the list for that picture perfect social media update.
Aside from capturing good photos, you can also view them beautifully with a 90Hz Super AMOLED Display. All this in a handy 7.95mm Ultra-Slim Light Particle Design which makes it the slimmest smartphone from the number series.
Worry-free Experience
One of the things I love about this phone, is that I get to enjoy my favorite mobile games without the worry of lags, and the need to go on low settings. The over-all graphics of the AMOLED display, plus the 90Hz refresh rate, lets me grind on that rank game or just pass my time after a day’s work.
Aside from the powerful processor, realme 10 is also backed up by an 8GB RAM+8GB Dynamic RAM. This lets you enjoy multi-tasking on your phone by running up to 18 Apps simultaneously with ease. And where do you put such heavy programs? This unit comes with at least 128GB worth of space to load up not just your favorite applications, but with photos, videos, and other files.
The over-all memory combination assures that you won’t have any problem with slow app switching and launching.
Another plus with the realme 10 is that it passed the TUV SUD36-month Fluency rating with an A mark. Meaning, you can enjoy your day-1 powerful experience consistently for up to 3 years. So you can probably save up that phone upgrade budget for a little bit longer!
