Realme 6 Review: the Best Mobile for Gaming for Less than 220 Euros

As time goes by and we get to know the mid-range bets of most mobile phone manufacturers, the more convinced we are that this year the absolute winner of this niche is Realme 6 . But it is that in addition to being an excellent mid-range it is a great terminal for those who want to squeeze the Play Store games to the fullest.

Realme is a young brand that in 2019 has already reached the figure of 25 million phones sold in 27 markets, with which the brand has become the 7th manufacturer in the world market for phones (impressive figures for a new brand ). The firm landed in our country last year with mobiles of the size of the realme X2 Pro to dominate the high-end at a laugh price and the realme 5 Pro, a terminal that won the hearts of mid-range users. Now realme 6 arrives to succeed the latter, considering it as the winning option for those who want it all, without having to pay hundreds of euros.

An economical and gaming option

On other occasions we have talked about the characteristics of the realme 6, highlighting that it is a smartphone, above all, balanced. The phone boasts a large screen with a refresh rate that we cannot find in another mobile that moves in a price range of less than 220 euros, but it also has a MediaTek Helio G90T processor focused on the gaming user.

And it is that the phone wants to stand out among a young audience accustomed to spending time (and more in this time that we have had to live) playing high-demand titles such as CoD Mobile, Fortnite, PUBG Mobile, Clash Royale or Asphalt 7. For To enjoy these titles in the best of conditions, it is necessary to have specifications that, until recently, will be more typical of the high-end than a smartphone that moves like a fish in the water at the top of the mid-range.

90Hz screen

The smartphone adopts the on-screen hole format so that nothing distracts us from long gaming sessions. We can spend hours playing on its 6.5 ″ screen with FullHD + resolution of 2400 x 1800 px that leave us with a high density of pixels per inch of 405 dpi.

This 20: 9 aspect ratio LCD screen features something that no other mobile phone at this price point has, a 90Hz refresh rate for a smoother gameplay response and less tactile delay that takes away our games. To do this, it uses Hyper Boost technology that works with intelligent scenario prediction to improve game speed.

MediaTek G-series gaming processor

A good screen, if not matched by a good processor, is useless. For this reason, Realme has chosen to work with the Mediatek MT6785, better known in the industry as the Helio G90T, a 12 nm Octa-core gaming chipset running at more than 2 GHz that has been developed to work together with a Mali-G76 GPU. MC4 offering superior graphics performance over the latest Qualcomm SD7XX series.

In addition, the brand allows you to choose between configurations of 64 or 128 GB of UFS 2.1 storage (plus MicroSd), along with 4 and 8 GB of LPDDR4x RAM and 8 GB of LPRDDR4X RAM.

Large capacity battery with fast charge

To support our long gaming sessions, the realme 6 has a 4300mAh cell with VOOC 3.0’s own 30W fast charge technology that is capable of charging the mobile from 0-100% in less than an hour. In addition, it has five-layer protection to prevent overheating.

Official partner of the first MOBA mobile game, Arena of Valor

When we talk about the importance of a good gaming mobile to get the most out of games, we have for example titles like Arena of Valor, one of the multiplayer apps that has the largest community of players (more than 200 million registered users). Now Series 6 becomes the official partner of the game with the aim of offering the best gaming experience to fans of the MOBA title and playing at full capacity.

Details to round off a must buy

The smartphone launches the realme UI personalization layer that adds interesting performance and battery management tools focused on offering better behaviors when playing some of the titles mentioned above. It is a customization layer that takes its first steps in this realme 6 and is based on Android 10.

To this we add a quad camera system housed in the upper corner of the back allowing you to enjoy great photos and video (4K) without large outlays.
