Realme GT Neo2 5G Review: specs and features, camera quality test, gaming benchmark, user opinions and photos

Realme GT Neo2 5G - for games and more?

The original smartphone with the Neo-index from the Chinese company Realmi has found a huge number of fans in its homeland. At the same time, the phone was acquired by many people from Europe and the CIS, although the model was not officially presented in these regions. The reason for the excitement was a rare combination of low price, flagship performance and the same design today. The hero of today's review is trying to advance even further in the given parameters, however, it seems that the global version of the device is also not planned.

The appearance of the novelty borrowed the design of the camera unit from OnePlus, which only benefits him. An attractive back panel with a matte texture and a fully bezel -less 6.62-inch AMOLED display enhance the beauty of the phablet. A significant disadvantage of the exterior will be the plastic edging, which they tried to disguise as metal. Unfortunately, without a cover, it will quickly become covered with minor scratches. The aforementioned AMOLED screen retained the FullHD + resolution and increased refresh rate of 120Hz , but the most noticeable changes were with a headroom of brightness. Now the direct rays of the sun have a lesser effect on the visibility of the image.

Curious metamorphoses have taken place with the technical characteristics. The Mediatek Dimensity 1200 processor has been replaced by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 with roughly the same level of gaming power. Probably, the developer found such a chipset more preferable for potential buyers. Nevertheless, any resource-intensive projects function smoothly with maximum graphics presets, the situation will remain so in a couple of years. Achieving such a result would have been impossible without 6GB / 8GB / 12GB of RAM and an Adreno 650 video adapter. Autonomy is the most important aspect of any Android smartphone. An energy efficient CPU and 5000mAh battery eliminate the need to search for outlets for a day and a half, and the battery also boasts 65W of charging power. There are no complaints about the ROM size, which has reached 128 / 256GB .

64-, 8- and 2-megapixel photo modules are the weak point of the gadget. The photographic capabilities are far from those of the flagships due to the lack of optical stabilization, savings on the quality of lenses. As a result, it is possible to praise only daytime shooting for a minimum of noise, preservation of detail and color reproduction. Such words can no longer be applied to photo shoots with evening lighting. The list of advantages is renewed by support for 5G networks and contactless payments NFC , stereo sound , but the list of shortcomings continues the lack of FDD-LTE B20, which is important for the functioning of 4G in many countries, as well as sometimes mediocre software translation. But such trifles hardly spoil the impression of the future bestseller.
