Realme XT price in Pakistan & specs:

Realme XT price in Pakistan Rs 54,999.00. The realme XT is coming hot on the heels of the Realme 5 series and is bringing something special. It’s the first smartphone to be released with a 64-megapixel camera. The real me XT is a mid-Ranger with an AMOLED screen, under-display fingerprint reader, large battery, and a unique quad-camera setup all for around 55,000Rs.

The design is so gorgeous and sleek; it’s rare for a mid-ranger to have Gorilla Glass 5 on the front and the back. Realme did cut quarters with the frame though, although it looks like metal, but is made of plastic instead. The pearl white and changing colors in a curved gradient finish, when it reflects light is quite eye-catching. The camera hump is quite huge though and the realme XT will wobble a lot on a desk or table but you won’t have this problem,

if you use the included silicon case. With both Gorilla Glass and a cover, you won’t have much to worry about except water. There’s no waterproofing here. Let’s have a look at further details.

Design and Display:

The realme XT display is a 6.4 inch Super AMOLED with a 1080p resolution. It’s a bit smaller than last year’s real me X, and the notch cut out is a significant difference too. Those who liked the edge to edge screen of the real me X might be disappointed but if you’re not into pop-up selfie cams you’d be happy with the change. The display looks bright and punchy and has an excellent pixel density of around 400 PPI.

Blacks are super deep and color reproduction is decent. Brightness is pretty good at almost 415 nits maximum. There’s no boost available in auto mode, but we didn’t have issues using this phone in the Sun. DC dimming is possible to reduce eye fatigue from screen flicker too. There is an always-on display, but it only shows the date and a clock, and there is no notification LED either.

The realme XT has an optical under-display fingerprint sensor that is speedy and nicely accurate. Beware if you’re using a screen protector as that might slow it down. There is face unlock too- it’s fast but not as secure. The realme XT has a single bottom-firing speaker, and the audio quality isn’t the best. High-pitched tones can come out tinny and harsh. You can plug in headphones through the 3.5-millimeter jack, but the sound quality with them doesn’t impress. Stereo separation isn’t great, and loudness is just average; you do get FM radio, though.

Performance:

With this phone, you get either 64 or 128 gigs of onboard storage; you can add extra space thanks to the dedicated microSD slot. The realme XT runs Oppos color OS 6 over android nine pie; you’ve already seen this interface on the realme X as well as on the real me 3 & 5 families. You will notice the difference from stock Android; here, the notification shade and quick toggles are redesigned, and the task switcher looks a lot like Apple’. There is a game space that gives you options for performance and notifications while gaming, and you can navigate using either the on-screen keys or swipe gestures. These gestures will feel quite intuitive.

The realme XT runs on a snapdragon 712 chipset, which is an upgrade from 2018’s snapdragon 710 with slightly higher clock speed. You also get four six or eight gigs of ram depending on the model. CPU performance is about 10 percent better than the real me X and indeed is better than most other phones in this class. There’s more than enough GPU power for your games, and we didn’t observe any significant throttling during the usage.

The realme XT has an ample 4000 mAh power battery. It is a significant improvement over last year’s real me X. The phone has a better performance in standby, the XT also supports 3.0 fast charging, and the 20-watt VOC charger does come in the box. It’s able to bring the phone from 0 to 50 percent charge in half an hour.

Camera:

The realme XT has a quad-camera arrangement like the real me 5 and 5 Pro. There’s an 8-megapixel ultra-wide camera, a 2-megapixel sensor for portrait mode, another 2-megapixel camera for taking macro shots. The star of the show is the 64-megapixel primary camera. It isn’t such a vast improvement over the 48-megapixel quad-core sensors we’ve used, but with that said, shots do turn out quite lovely.

In good light, there is plenty of detail, true to life colors, low noise, and wide dynamic range, but we did notice some corner softness, and the processing sometimes has trouble with details. In grass and foliage, there is a chrome boost mode, which uses image stacking to give you shots with more saturated colors and improved dynamic range.

You do have the option to shoot a photo in the full 64 megapixels, but like other quad-camera setups, this doesn’t offer you too much extra detail, and the file size is enormous. If you zoom in, you will get a digital crop from the primary camera, there’s even a 5x zoom help but don’t expect high quality here. Even at 2x results are already quite soft,t the ultra-wide camera has a 119-degree field of view; the detail isn’t impressive, though. Dynamic range is limited, and there’s no autofocus, but you do get low noise and automatic distortion correction.

The real me XT shoots portraits with the help of a secondary portrait camera, which realme says not only helps with depth-sensing but the contrast as well. The images are excellent with proper edge detection and impressive focus backgrounds. In low-light, photos from the primary camera look good, and the noise reduction still leaves behind a decent amount of detail, and colors are nicely rendered.

If you turn on a chrome boost, the colors will be more saturated, but that’s about all the benefits you’ll get. There is a dedicated night mode, though called nightscape. Pictures take two or three seconds to process and come out in 12 megapixels. You get a more even exposure with a boost in shadows and dark areas. The detail is impressive too. Shooting with the ultra-wide cam at night will give you underexposed shots with plenty of noise. If you switch on the nightscape mode, the results are a little better but still mediocre.

Selfies are taken with the realme XT 16 megapixel F 2.0 front-facing camera, which has a fixed focus. It does a great job if you have good lighting, you’ll get super detailed and sharp selfies. Videos can be captured with the primary camera and up to 4k at 30fps. There is no option to shoot with the ultra-wide cam, but these 4k videos look good with rich detail. If you switch over to 1080p quality is excellent here too.

Final Verdict:

So here’s the Realme XT, you get a bunch of features you might not expect at this price point. There’s a beautiful build, a large AMOLED screen, great battery life with fast charging, competitive performance, and pleasant camera experience. But the benefits of the 64-megapixel sensor over a 48 megapixel one are kind of hard to put your finger on. Comment below and let us know about your thoughts.
