On the day when we discover interesting details about Realme GT Neo 3 and we even talk about the possibility that it can mount fast charging at 150 W, the Chinese giant takes the veils off Realme Narzo 50.
The successor of Realme Narzo 30 comes with a youthful design that is very valid for the price range to which it is addressed, and even the technical sheet hides some small surprises that are really not bad.
Realme Narzo 50: features and design
Starting from the design, we are pleased to record the presence of a flat panel with a punch hole camera and not the classic drop notch that is still found today in some models of cheap Android smartphones. The phone features a 6.6-inch IPS LCD display with a dynamic 120Hz refresh rate – wow, we didn’t expect that – and a 90.8% display-to-frame ratio.
Under the body there is instead the MediaTek Helio G96 processor accompanied by 4/6 GB of LPDDR4x RAM memory and 64/128 GB of UFS 2.1 internal space expandable up to a maximum of 1 TB via microSD. Quite interesting is the main camera with a 50MP Samsung JN1 sensor, a 2MP portrait photo sensor and a 2MP macro sensor. Also good is the 5000 mAh battery with support for fast charging at 33 W, as well as the confirmation that Android 11 will soon be updated to Android 12 with Realme UI 3.0.
In short, considering the price converted into euros of the more performing model with 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB, the Realme smartphone is to be absolutely taken into consideration especially for the incredible support for the 120 Hz refresh rate.
