REALME X50 PRO5G:INDIA’S FIRST 5G PHONE

Realme has grown in leaps and bounds after its introduction to the smartphone market.The Realme X50 Pro 5G is India’s first launched 5G enabled smartphone.Besides the above I intend to use another adjective before this device the Budget Flagship.

WHY THE BUDGET FLAGSHIP

What are flagships? Flagships are the highest priced,highest specs sheet enforced,the best Camera setup enabled and the most premium looking smartphone of any company.Prices of flagships have reached almost Rs.1,20,000 .Obviously that price tag is not for all customers.But when you get such a premium device with all high end specs at below Rs.40,000 it is quite a remarkable deal and that’s the reason I call the Realme X50 Pro 5G the Budget Flagship.

DISPLAY

The X50 Pro has a 6.44″ Super Amoled display with resolution of 2400×1080(FHD).The screen to body ratio is 84.9%,aspect ratio 20:9 and 409ppi(pixels per inch).Screen brightness is upto 1000+nits(an unit of brightness)as per company claims.The screen refresh rate of 90 Hz enables smooth videos and easier multitasking.The device is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 5.

The X50 Pro comes with 3 variants of RAM:6GB,8GB and 12GB alongwith 128GB,128GB and 256GB internal storage respectively.The LPDDR5 RAM powered by UFS 3.0 ensures a very very speedy device with excellent RAM management.

Low light photography is on another level in this phone.There is an Ultra Nightscape mode and a Super Nightscape mode.The Ultra Nightscape mode can take bright high quality night pictures even in 1Lux low light environment(as per company claims).You also have a tripod mode which enables detailed night images after the long exposure.

SENSORS & OTHER FEATURES

The fingerprint sensor is an underdisplay optical one ,quite fast and the face unlock is of high standard as well.

Besides the customary features this device has a new Tactile Engine Linear Motor with 4D gaming vibration.This enables multiple vibrations while typing,photography and gaming and gives you an all round immersiveness.

The new Vapor Cooling system enables faster cooling of processor thereby making multitasking easier.

CONCLUSION

The Realme X50 Pro is the first 5G phone to be launched in India.Besides this attribute this phone also should be praised for the fact that it is one of the few phones with Snapdragon 865 SoC at such a price and also one of the firsts to do so.At the price tag it can be compared with the Redmi 10X Pro.

I said earlier that Realme has progresed in leaps and bounds.The Super Amoled display with 90Hz refresh rate is excellent and processor is the best available thus no doubts on speed.Camera quality is pretty good and there are many features which enhances photography.
