Reviews for the Realme 12x

Realme 12x Smartphone Review
Source: OI Spice Tech News English
The Realme 12x is a decent smartphone on its specification, but compared to the competition out there, it doesn’t look too good. It fails to bring meaningful improvements over its predecessor, Realme 11x. There are only three improvements here and they are higher refresh rate, charging speed, and inclusion of the latest Android OS. That’s about all the changes that are noticeable in the new smartphone compared to the Realme 11x. On its own, it brings a decent design, display, chipset, and camera, but comparatively, this smartphone brings nothing noteworthy, so the pricing is not up to the mark. The best alternative smartphone would be the Motorola Moto G34.

75% Realme 12X 5G review: a pocket-friendly smartphone for regular users
Source: 91mobiles English
At this price point, the Realme 12X 5G has several great features to appeal to everyday users. While camera performance isn’t its greatest strength, the phone is a decent choice for social media browsing or watching videos. Even if you’re a reader, the tall display won’t disappoint. More importantly, its minimalistic design makes an ideal for users across various age groups. Not to forget, there’s 5G support as well. If a reliable camera system is your priority, spending extra for the Realme 12 5G would be wiser. If your budget is limited, the Redmi 13C 5G may offer some respite but don’t have high hopes. Otherwise, if cameras aren’t your biggest priority, the Realme 12X 5G for everyday users is a solid choice.

The realme 12x 5G is a solid package for its price, you get 45W fast charging, fast performance (Dimensity 6100+), a slimmer design (7.69 mm), a smooth and bright 120 Hz display in its segment, and a bunch of other perks such as RainWater Smart Touch, Air Gestures, IP54 water-resistant design, stereo speakers, as well as features from realme UI 5.0. For those looking for a smartphone in the ₹10,000 to ₹15,000 price range, the realme 12x 5G is the most reasonable smartphone you can get for its offerings in the midrange segment. The price starts at ₹11,999 for its 4 GB RAM and 128 GB storage variant which can be grabbed at a flat ₹1,000 discount using the launch offers (i.e. ₹10,999).

ARM Mali-G57 MP2: Integrated mid range graphics card with 2 clusters. Based on the Valhall architecture.

Only some 3D games with very low demands are playable with these cards.

» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Graphics Cards and the corresponding Benchmark List.


Dimensity 6100+: The Dimensity 6100 Plus is a lower mid-range SoC with an integrated 5G modem. It includes two fast ARM Cortex-A76 cores at up to 2.2 GHz and six power efficient Cortex-A55 cores at up to 2 GHz. The specifications are similar to the old Dimensity 700 SoC and nearly identical to the 6020.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.


6.72":

It is a small display format for smartphones. You shouldn't be severely defective in vision, and you won't see much detail on the screen and only have a small resolution available. For that, the device should be small and handy, easy to transport.

» To find out how fine a display is, see our DPI List.


71.78%: This rating is poor. More than three quarters of the models are rated better. That is rather not a purchase recommendation. Even if verbal ratings in this area do not sound that bad ("sufficient" or "satisfactory"), they are usually euphemisms that disguise a classification as a below-average laptop.
