extremely powerful phone for great money

The realme GT 5G was certainly one of the most anticipated phones this year. It promises flag parameters at a much lower price than the competition and says to itself flag killer. According to the AnTuT benchmark, it is the most powerful phone in the world and that is not all. It also offers a top AMOLED display with a high refresh rate, fast charging or a perfectly tuned system. All this for a price below 13 thousand crowns. At first glance, this offer is not wrong, is it? We had the same opinion, so we decided to take a closer look at the phone.

Package contents realme GT

In the realme GT 5G package you will find everything you would expect. The phone will arrive in a nice black paper box, which highlights the main benefits of this phone – Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 5G, 65W SuperDart Charge, 120 HZ Super AMOLED display or 64 MPx camera from Sony. In addition to the phone itself, it is also inside charging adapter, cable, various brochures and also a transparent case.

Appearance and quality of workmanship

The quality of workmanship for phones usually clearly defines the price category in which the phone falls. The company presented the realme GT as a flagship killer, so of course you would also expect premium processing. At first glance, it may seem that the realme GT (or its frames) is made of metal, but on closer inspection you will find that they are plastic. However, the company succeeded in metal relatively imitate so we didn’t mind his absence.

In the yellow variant we tested, it covers the back side imitation vegan leatherwhich looks great for us and has another undeniable advantage – the phone gives you thanks to it does not slip in hands, which could be a problem with the glass variant. It disrupts her a black glass strip that extends to the camera module. It has to mimic the stripes we find on sports cars. The phone screams a bit into the world, how powerful it is, but we don’t mind at all and on the contrary we like it very much. In our surroundings, however, we also met with a negative response. Design is a purely subjective matter and with this mobile phone this is doubly true.

Thanks to the already mentioned imitation of leather, the phone holds perfectly in the hands and overall dimensions 158,5 x 73,3 x 8,4 mm are still acceptable. The weight then makes it solid 186 grams, so when you read something or watch a video, weight will not be a major obstacle. The power button is located directly to thumb level as well as the volume control buttons are conveniently located. Terms ergonomics here the realme did a good job and basically we have little to blame him. The phone is also missing 3,5 mm jackwhich will be appreciated by many audiophiles. It will also please presence of stereo speakersthat play balanced and do not lack enough bass. He’ll just freeze absence of any certification, so with water carefully.

GT real display

The front of the realme GT phone covers 6.43 ″ Super AMOLED display with a resolution of 2,400 x 1,080 pixels, a refresh rate of 120 Hz and HDR10 + support. It is disrupted by a small shot in the upper left corner, where it is located 16 MPx selfie webcamthat manages to shoot video in Full HD resolution. Probably every one of us has ever seen an AMOLED display, so you can imagine a clear and vivid color rendering with great contrast and excellent black rendering. The realme company decided to use flat screen, which we acknowledge, and especially when playing games, you will not encounter any unwanted touches.

The maximum brightness is 600 rivets and in direct sunlight it is more than legible enough, although of course on flagships that have a brightness of 900 or more threads the phone does not have. A huge effect on the overall experience of using the phone has a 120 Hz refresh rate combined with 360 Hz sampling frequency. Thanks to this, the phone looks incredibly smooth and everything happens almost immediately. Such an experience is poorly explained in a written review. If you’ve never had a higher refresh rate display, you’ll be excited about it, of course. But it also does its 360 Hz sampling frequency here, thanks to which it is the response to the touch is simply immediate. We will also find a fingerprint reader in it, which has a suitable location and is lightning fast. In addition, it works in most cases, even when your hands are wet. You can also set the unlock with your face, it also works reliably, even in poor lighting conditions. The question is how safe it will be.

Hardware and performance

Let’s move on to the category that probably makes most of you read this review. The realme GT 5G phone is by far the cheapest phone on the market with a chipset Qualcomm Snapdragon 888. It helps him in the version we tested 8 GB RAM and fast 128 GB UFS 3.1 storage. We won’t strain you for long – the performance is simply brutal. In the Geekbench benchmark, the phone earned a great 1142 in a single-core test points. For example, such a Galaxy S21 Ultra with the Exynos 2100 chipset reached 960 points and costs once as much. In a multi-core test, the realme GT 5G scored 3656 points. If we were to compare it again with the S21 Ultra, it reached 3176 points.

In the AnTuT benchmark, it achieved a higher version with 12 GB of RAM per score 822,869 points, which according to this ranking makes it the most powerful phone in the world. He even overtook monsters as needed ASUS ROG Phone 5 nebo Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra. These numbers can tell you that this is a real beast in terms of performance. You have practically no chance to encounter any jam. All challenging games as needed Call of Duty: Mobile, Fortnite, PUBG Mobile, Aspahlt 9 or Genshin Impact runs at the maximum possible graphic settings smoothly and without chopping. So if you are looking for the best gaming phone for a reasonable price, you don’t even have to read the review and just go buy it now.

System

In the realm GT 5G we find the superstructure of realme UI 2.0, which is built on Android 11. It is one of the cleanest superstructures ever, so if you like more prominent systems like MIUI or One UI, you may get used to the system for a while. For lovers of a clean system, this system is another choice why they should think about the phone. Of course, they are quite widespread here customization options whether we are talking about the size or shape of the icons, the colors in the system, the style of the effect when unlocked by the fingerprint reader or the font and its size.
