realme narzo 50 Pro 5G

Strengths

The AMOLED screen is a great feature with a 90Hz refresh rate, Corning Gorilla Glass 5 protection, and a peak brightness of 1000 nits.
The mid-range processor handles day-to-day tasks smoothly, including gaming, and the battery life is excellent, lasting a full day with normal usage.
The camera setup is impressive, with good dynamic range, accurate colors, and plenty of details in images captured by the primary sensor.

Weaknesses

The phone has too many pre-installed apps that cannot be uninstalled, making for a disappointing experience and cluttering up the home screen.
The audio quality is not mentioned as being anything special, aside from it being loud and clear when using the dual stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos.
The rear panel is made of plastic and has a Kevlar texture that may be prone to fingerprint smudges.
The phone's performance would have been better if there were less third-party applications or if users were given the option to uninstall them all.
