realme 10: the most powerful under 20,000 rubles
This is a November novelty that impressed our editors.
A special emphasis is placed on performance in a smartphone. Realme 10 uses the Helio G99, the latest chipset from MediaTek and arguably the biggest star of the year. It combines high performance with excellent energy efficiency due to the fact that it is made using a 6 nm process technology.
But in addition to Helio G99, the smartphone has up to 16 GB of RAM (8 GB of physical + 8 virtual allocated from a 128/256 GB drive) and a UFS 2.2 drive up to 256 GB.
Plus, realme engineers managed to realize the full potential of the chipset. The smartphone remains cold even under 100% load, and the chipset is not subject to throttling.
As a result, realme 10 turned out to be the most powerful smartphone under 20 thousand rubles. And at the current moment (December/January 2023), in our opinion, this is the best option for games and “heavy” applications.
The good thing regarding realme 10 is that the rest of the characteristics of the smartphone are not forgotten. The selfie camera is a great 16 MP module. And the main camera is a system of two lenses: 50 MP + 2 MP (depth sensor for portrait photography). 50 MP turned out to be universal. It does an excellent job with both landscape photography and close-ups (we recommend that you see the review of the smartphone with sample photos).
The screen will not disappoint. Here is a bright 6.4-inch AMOLED panel (peak brightness of 1000 nits) with a resolution of 2400 by 1080 pixels and a refresh rate of 90 Hz. Of course, there is an Always-On display.
We recommend reading the realme 10 review. This is one of the main smartphones of the year. According to the promotion, the price of a smartphone is 17,990 rubles.
