Realme Q5 Pro Review: specs and features, camera quality test, gaming benchmark, user opinions and photos

Realme Q5 Pro - another repetition

The Chinese company Realmi is trying to compete with the most powerful market players, while wisely distributing its budget. So, the corporation uses especially successful models of smartphones several times before they lose their relevance. So, the hero of today's review repeats the previously released GT Neo by almost 100%, with the exception of a number of minor points.

The design of the gadget is not devoid of an abundance of attractive features. The audience will definitely love the 6.43- inch bezel-less display and, as a result, the small size of the device, an eye-pleasing block of three cameras and an adequate thickness of the device. If the ergonomics of an Android smartphone are at their best, the tactile sensations are more modest due to the plastic back panel and edging. It is also worth understanding that this material without a cover will collect scratches and even chips in the blink of an eye. The AMOLED display is impressive, first of all, with a refresh rate of 120 Hz , which not all flagships can boast. In other respects, a smooth FullHD + picture is not inferior to competitors, but does not surpass them either. The accuracy of the in- display fingerprint sensor is also not lame.

In terms of technical characteristics, the situation is much more interesting. The Mediatek Dimensity 1200 CPU has a pre-top performance level in the region of 650-700 thousand points in the Antutu benchmark, which allows the processor, together with 8 / 12GB of RAM and the Mali G77MC9 graphics adapter, to work wonders. Extremely resource-intensive games like the high-tech Genshin Impact demonstrate a stable frame rate at maximum graphic presets even after a couple of hours of gameplay. The chipset is not subject to critical heating, and a well-thought-out cooling system only contributes to a comfortable pastime with the mobile assistant. The rechargeable battery provides about one and a half days of work with the gadget thanks to the capacity of 4500mAh . Fast charging at 65W is a great addition to excellent battery life. The volume of ROM is limited to 128 / 256GB of UFS 3.1 format, which is the right decision, because slow MicroSD cards would negatively affect the speed of launching applications.

The main cameras are the weak point of the phablet. 64-, 8- and 2-megapixel budget photo modules without optical stabilization do not differ in wide photo opportunities. For daytime shooting, they are enough with a margin, but getting a detailed evening shot without excess noise is almost impossible from the first take. The sound of the stereo speakers is loud and even, the phone has not done without NFC and 5G networks support. Thus, we have before us an amazing representative of the border of the middle and high price segments, which has been spared noticeable shortcomings.
