Reviews for the Realme C61

70% realme C61 review: Don’t fear running out of battery
Source: Htxt Africa
Available right now from Vodacom for R5 999 cash, R329 per month on a 24-month contract or R279 per month on a 36-month contract, the realme C61 is in the mid-range sweet spot. Here we can see a balancing act between a great battery, solid camera and premium looks with lower-than-average performance. With so many smartphones in the range on offer in South Africa, the realme C61 distinguishes itself with its battery and its solid camera offering. Once again, it is let down by its performance power, and its Dynamic RAM doesn’t make much of a difference in this department despite what the brand says.

74% Realme C61 Smartphone Review
Source: Root Nation
The realme C61 is a smartphone that stands out due to several key features. Its stylish design catches the eye and resembles that of an iPhone, while the long battery life makes it an ideal choice for users who need a device that lasts all day. The interface ensures smooth performance, and the inclusion of a 3.5 mm headphone jack is a significant plus for those who still appreciate traditional headphones. Additionally, the IP54 rating and 45W charging add to its appeal. Moreover, the device is attractively priced, making it an excellent option for budget-conscious consumers. Of course, the realme C61 is not without its drawbacks.

ARM Mali-G52 MP1: Integrated mid range graphics card with 1 clusters. ARM states that the G52 series is 30% faster and 15% more efficient compared to the G51 series on the same process node. The MC1 / MP1 variant is the smallest version.

Non demanding games should be playable with these graphics cards.

T7225 (T612): Entry level octa core SoC with two fast ARM Cortex A75 cores at up to 1.8 GHz and six power efficient ARM Cortex A55 cores at up to 1.8 GHz. The SoC further includes an LTE modem (TDD-LTE, FDD-LTE, TDSCDMA, WCDMA, CDMA, GSM), an ARM Mali G52MP1 GPU and a tri core ISP. The chip is manufactured by TSMC on a 12nm FinFET process.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.

6.75":

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.

72.75%: 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.
