With its appealing design, decent camera setup, and all-day battery life, it offers good value for money, but isn't without its drawbacks like software bloat and average low-light photography. Pros and Cons Realme Narzo 60X: Pros & Cons Pros Cons Premium Design Average Low-light Camera Reliable Performance Bloatware and Ads Strong Battery Life 5G Connectivity Key Specs Realme Narzo 60X Review: Key Specs Display: 6.72-inch FHD+ LCD, 120Hz refresh rate Processor: MediaTek Dimensity 6100+ SoC Camera: 50MP Main, 8MP Front Battery: 5,000mAh, 33W Fast Charging RAM/Storage: Up to 6GB LPDDR4X RAM, 128GB UFS 2.1 Storage Software: Android 13-based Realme UI 4.0 Realme Narzo 60X: Design and Display Realme Narzo 60X: Design The Realme Narzo 60X effortlessly blends premium design elements with essential features, all within a budget-friendly package. The phone's matte-finish black color variant exudes sophistication, complemented by a camera ring design that takes cues from the Realme 11X. Weighing just 190 grams and measuring 7.89mm in thickness, this device is built for comfortable, extended usage. In terms of functionality, the Narzo 60X is equipped with modern amenities like a USB Type-C port for efficient charging and data transfer. It also retains a 3.5mm headphone jack, catering to those who still prefer wired audio. Conveniently located volume rockers and a side-mounted fingerprint sensor round out the feature set, making the phone as practical as it is stylish. Realme Narzo 60X: Display The device boasts of a 6.72-inch FHD+ LCD panel that delivers a respectable viewing experience. With a peak brightness of 650 nits, the display performs well in various lighting conditions. Although it doesn't support HDR, the phone comes with Widevine L1 certification, ensuring that HD content can be streamed without issue. The screen's 120Hz refresh rate enhances the fluidity of the user interface, making scrolling and animations notably smoother. However, it's worth noting that the display has some minor drawbacks. For instance, there is slight backlight bleeding around the punch-hole, which is relatively common for LCD panels in this category. Additionally, in our opinion, the device has somewhat larger bezels around the chin area, but this is a minor aesthetic concern that does not significantly impact the overall experience. The viewing angles are decent, making it easier to share content with friends or watch videos from different perspectives. Realme Narzo 60X: Cameras Realme Narzo 60X: Cameras The Realme Narzo 60X features a 50MP main camera that performs commendably well in daylight conditions. The dynamic range is moderate, and while there's room for improvement in shutter speed and focus, the overall performance is quite decent for a budget phone. One of the highlights is the color reproduction, which manages to maintain a good balance of vibrancy and accuracy. We saw that sharpness in full-resolution 50MP shots adds an extra layer of detail, enhancing the quality of images. The phone also has a 2MP dedicated sensor for portrait mode, producing reasonably well-executed shots, although edge detection could use some fine-tuning. As for low-light photography, there are areas for improvement in terms of image quality and noise reduction. We found that images taken in poorly lit conditions often appear overly processed, losing out on important details. While the dedicated night mode attempts to compensate for the lack of natural light, its performance is somewhat limited. On the front, the 8MP selfie camera holds its own, offering satisfactory results in capturing facial features and skin tones, especially considering the phone's budget-friendly price point. Realme Narzo 60X: Camera Samples Realme Narzo 60X: Performance and Features Realme Narzo 60X: Performance In terms of performance, the Narzo 60X has MediaTek's Dimensity 6100+ SoC, positioning it as a competent performer in the budget category. Benchmark tests reflect this, with Antutu V9 Lite scoring 428,787 and a 1,893 multi-core score on Geekbench 6. The CPU Throttle benchmark indicates a 93 percent stability, which suggests that the device is reliable for general usage. While the phone can handle low-level gaming on titles like BGMI for extended periods, it's not designed for high-end gaming experiences. Realme Narzo 60X Review: Features Performance can also be hindered when running multiple tasks, partly due to its hardware limits; it offers up to 6GB of LPDDR4X RAM and 128GB of non-expandable UFS 2.1 storage. A unique feature is Dynamic RAM, which allocates an additional 6GB from storage to act as virtual RAM. Connectivity features are quite robust, with support for both NSA and SA 5G bands in the country. The "5G Low Power Smart Hotspot" allows users to share their 5G network with others efficiently. Audio and accessibility are also decent; the phone includes a 3.5mm headphone jack and the speakers, although average, get the job done. The fingerprint sensor offers a reliable and quick way to unlock the device. Realme Narzo 60X: Software and Battery Realme Narzo 60X: Battery The Realme Narzo 60X runs on Android 13-based Realme UI 4.0, which offers a pleasing software experience. While the skin is customisable and could be user-friendly for those accustomed to Realme's ecosystem, it's not without its downsides. Users may encounter advertisements when downloading apps, a caveat that could mar the experience for some. Additionally, the device comes pre-loaded with bloatware, an issue that has long been a point of contention in the software experience. Despite these drawbacks, the software is otherwise functional and may appeal to long-term Realme users. Realme Narzo 60X: Software The Realme Narzo 60X is equipped with a 5,000mAh battery that reliably lasts an entire day. Users can expect screen-on times to hover between 6 to 7 hours, which is more than adequate for the phone's target budget-conscious audience. When it comes to recharging, the device supports 33W fast charging, allowing for a complete battery refill in approximately 90 minutes. This rapid charging feature adds to the phone's overall utility, especially for users who may not have consistent access to a charging outlet throughout the day. Realme Narzo 60X: Final Verdict Realme Narzo 60X: Final Verdict Priced at Rs 12,999, the Realme Narzo 60X impresses on multiple fronts. Its design aesthetics stand out, encapsulating premium elements that are often hard to find in budget smartphones. Performance-wise, the phone meets expectations, backed by MediaTek's Dimensity 6100+ SoC and 6GB of RAM. It excels in day-to-day tasks and even manages to handle low-level gaming, although it is not built for intense gaming sessions. The 50MP primary camera captures good daylight shots but falls short in low-light conditions. Software can be a mixed bag, with a customizable user interface but hindered by the presence of bloatware and ads. The 5,000mAh battery is a strong point, ensuring that the phone lasts an entire day on a single charge. With its 33W fast charging capabilities, you're back in action in no time. Overall, if you can overlook its minor flaws, the Realme Narzo 60X is a well-rounded budget offering that punches above its weight in several key areas.
