The Realme Narzo 50 is the latest addition to Realme's affordable gaming device series. Priced starting from RM599, this smartphone offers impressive specs at an affordable price point. One of the standout features of the Narzo 50 is its display - a high-resolution LCD screen with fast refresh rate, making it ideal for gamers and media enthusiasts. The phone is powered by a MediaTek Helio G96 processor, which provides smooth performance in day-to-day use and gaming sessions. The camera department boasts a 50MP primary sensor, a 2MP depth sensor, and a 2MP macro lens. While the camera takes decent shots during the day, it struggles with noise and low light conditions. However, night mode helps to brighten up dark scenes. In terms of performance, the Narzo 50 handles gaming sessions well, although intense games may require lower graphics settings for optimal performance. The phone's battery life is also commendable, lasting a full day with moderate usage. With a 5,000mAh battery and 33W fast charging support, the Narzo 50 offers great value for its price. Its expandable storage up to 11GB RAM and microSD card slot add to its appeal. Overall, the Realme Narzo 50 is an excellent choice for those seeking a budget-friendly smartphone with impressive specs and performance.
The Realme Narzo 50A is an affordable smartphone priced from Rs. 11,999 in India. While it checks all the right boxes on paper, its worthiness of the price tag remains uncertain. Design-wise, the phone sticks to Realme's familiar principles with a simple yet practical back panel made of polycarbonate. The rear camera module extends till the center of the phone and engulfs the fingerprint reader, making it sometimes difficult to find. However, the grooved texture on the back helps with grip due to its big and heavy build at 207 grams. Performance-wise, the Realme Narzo 50A is decent for casual gaming but struggles with heavy games. The Mediatek Helio G85 Soc doesn't always allow heavy games to run smoothly, with Call of Duty Mobile just playable at default low graphics settings. Moreover, the phone warmed up quickly during gameplay. In terms of display, the phone features a 6.5-inch HD+ screen with a water drop style notch that looks outdated compared to punch-hole displays offered by competitors. However, the display looked sufficiently sharp and had decent viewing angles. Battery life is an area where the Narzo 50A excels, lasting two whole days with casual gaming and up to three days on light usage. The cameras, though impressive on paper, failed to impress in real-world scenarios. The primary camera struggled to produce detailed photos, especially when zoomed in. Selfies had good detail but looked over-sharpened, and the portrait mode was subpar. Macros weren't great either, looking over-sharpened and dramatic. In conclusion, the Realme Narzo 50A is a smartphone with reliable battery life and basic features. However, it's not ideal for gamers due to its performance limitations. Its cameras also fall short of expectations. Overall, this phone is best suited for those seeking a budget option with long battery life but can live with average cameras, design, and performance.
