Realme X performance and battery life

Realme X is a big phone but it is not wide, so the grip is good while holding the phone. We did not find the body of the phone slippery, but if you find the body of Realme X slippery, you can wear the case that comes with the phone. It is difficult to reach the upper part of the phone’s display with one hand, but if you enable one-handed mode, it minimizes the entire interface.

Realme X is a head turner and fits comfortably in the hand. Interestingly, many people mistook it for the OnePlus 7 Pro as the design of both the Realme X and OnePlus 7 Pro is quite similar.

Realme X worked well with regular use and gaming. The company says that the phone uses new gel cooling technology that uses copper foil, graphite flakes and aluminum alloy to reduce heat. The Snapdragon 710 processor delivers good gaming performance.

PUBG Mobile was set to high graphics by default and the gameplay was smooth. Asphalt 9: Legends also ran smoothly without any frame drops. Realme X is also great for media playback. This is Realme’s first phone to feature Dolby Atmos support. It is enabled by default for the bottom speaker and cannot be turned off.

However, if you are using headphones, you can turn it off. You can choose between different sound modes or leave it on ‘Smart’. The phone is loud and the sound quality is also good. Both the fingerprint sensor and the face unlock feature on the Realme X are quick to unlock the phone.

You can use the Face Unlock feature in two ways, either you can wake the screen by pressing the power button so that the camera module pops up or by swiping up on the lock screen. Realme X offers strong battery life even when we use the camera heavily. In our battery loop test, the 3,765mAh battery lasted for 14 hours and 28 minutes which is a good sign.

The battery of the phone lasted for one and a half days on a single charge when using video streaming, camera, gaming and social apps. The phone also supports VOOC 3.0 fast charging and the phone was charged from 0 to about 93 percent in an hour.

Camera of Realme X

Realme X comes with two rear cameras. There is a 48-megapixel Sony IMX586 primary sensor with f/1.7 aperture. It is accompanied by a 5-megapixel secondary camera with f/2.4 aperture. The primary sensor uses 4-in-1 pixel binning technology which treats four pixels as one pixel to capture more light and saves a 12-megapixel image.

The same sensor is used in the Redmi Note 7 Pro (Review) and OnePlus 7 Pro and the photos taken with both were good. When taking landscape shots in adequate light, the main camera captures colors and details well. There is no lack of sharpness in the picture. Realme X does a good job with HDR and the dynamic range is also good.

The Chroma Boost button in the viewfinder works to boost colors and brightness when shooting against light. Apart from this, you also get a 2x button but it is only for digital zoom. Close-up shots were also captured very well. The color tone is definitely a bit warm, but the colors and details were captured well.

Even when shooting indoors in artificial light, close-up shots captured good detail without any noise. The second sensor helps map the edges of objects which makes portrait shots look good. Background blur is not adjustable but it looks natural. Low-light performance is good.

There was a slight lack of sharpness in the pictures taken in the dark and some noise was also seen. If you want, you can capture pictures with better detail and sharpness by using the Nightscape mode provided in the phone. It does take a few seconds to capture the picture but the picture is captured brighter and with better detail.
