Realme 5i smartphone was launched on 7th January 2020. The phone comes with a 6.52-inch touchscreen. Now the phone looks good on paper, however, it is up to us to decide if that’s enough to purchase a smartphone these days, when we are so much dependent on our gadgets. As far as it concerns me, I definitely need more than that. I haven’t bought this phone, but I do know a few who have and let me tell you, they do not have a good story to tell about the phone upon asking.
Realme 5i is powered by octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 665 processor. This does not justice to the device. Honestly, I am not much a gamer, although I do enjoy a few gaming sessions now and then. I had a terrible experience playing on this phone. It lagged behind quite a lot and another thing I have an issue with is over-heating. Actually, overheating beyond the normal.
The only reason why I am using my time to write this review is because I don’t want anyone else to go through the kind of experience I went through or better, I don’t want you to be one of those people who buys this phone.
