Realme X50 5G Review

The Realme x50 5G is a superb buy, and should be the gateway to 5G for many cost-conscious shoppers.

Very good battery life; Low price for a 5G phone; Well-specced 120Hz screen; Strong general and gaming performance; Surprisingly capable main camera, even at night; Glass back;

Two of the rear cameras are filler; No headphone jack;

Realme X50 5G Review

Punching well above its weight, the Realme X50 5G strikes an outstanding price-versus-performance balance. Along with 5G, a powerful processor and a smooth 120Hz screen, the X50 also impresses with both its camera and battery longevity.

Premium design touches; 120Hz smooth viewing; Incredible value;

Weak macro camera; No headphone jack; LCD not OLED;

Realme X50 5G review: The world is Nord enough

Realme undercuts the OnePlus Nord in terms of price - and does a fine job of delivering a compelling phone. It's true that the camera could be better, and that there are little compromises in terms of design and display tech, but it's unlikely you'll find an all-round better phone than the X50 5G at this price.

Very affordable price point; Speedy and fluid performance; Long-lasting battery; Fast-charging tech; 120Hz refresh rate display;

Camera results inconsistent; Doesn't need a quad-camera system; LCD display not AMOLED; Side-mounted fingerprint sensor isn't always quick;
