realme GT 6 Reviews
From the beginning above, it can be said that we will describe a number of positive things on this cellphone. At least positive things are some of the initial findings when we started the review process. In terms of LOOKS and FEELS, we who are mostly old feel spoiled by a number of features carried by this cellphone. Then further to PERFORMANCE, IMAGING and VALUE we will discuss in full.
Design
The realme GT 6 smartphone is present in Indonesia as the first product with the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 chipset. Only a few days after other products. Although the price is considered relatively more expensive, the realme GT 6 is undoubtedly more comfortable to hold, with a more mature design and more luxurious materials. From the outside, it will look like a better value.
In other words, the design or external appearance is one of the positive points that we feel. Using nano mirror design technology, the realme GT 6 is coated with a back cover that looks like a mirror, but still with the coloring and appearance of the fog texture inside, so that it looks neutral. Suitable for both men and women. But it is difficult to photograph to show its true beauty.
Consisting of two color choices, namely razor green and fluid silver, both of which give a dark and light color effect on the back. Where the part with the camera is made darker than the other areas.
And as you can see in the preview photos, this product carries a 3D Curve design, aka a curved screen, leaving a little space on the right and left edges. But it is still designed in such a way, so that we still get the comfort we need.
Of course, this product is made thin, even though it carries a number of relatively extreme heat dissipation designs on the inside.
Display
Still in the OUTER DISPLAY section, there is an AMOLED 8T LTPO panel screen. With a focus on power efficiency, this screen panel has a dynamic refresh rate feature, which is able to change the screen refresh rate according to needs. This means that when the cellphone manufacturer marries it with a chipset that is able to perform efficiency by changing the refresh rate, this type of screen will be a positive thing that can be felt, especially in energy usage. Realme itself claims that the use of this type of screen seems to add 300mAh to the battery intake. That’s how economical it is.
For example, when we play games like CODM, the screen refresh rate can be invited to 120Hz or the maximum refresh rate supported by the game. The power required will be greater. But when we exit the game and open WhatsApp, the screen will return to the standard 60Hz, so the power consumed is not too large.
But one interesting thing on the display side, especially for those who often use their cellphones outdoors is the extreme screen brightness. For those of you who intend to use a cellphone as one of your mainstay devices when going for Umrah to Saudi Arabia, for example, the realme GT 6 screen will help you.
This cellphone screen has a very high brightness, which is 6000 nits. Just for information, the average cellphone screen currently displays a brightness of 2000-2600 nits. Thus, screen visibility will feel increased, especially outdoors. Making it pass the SGS Five-Star Sunlight-Readable Display certification.
In addition, like a flagship cellphone screen, the realme GT 6 screen already supports Dolby Vision and Pro-XDR, both for watching content and when capturing it. For that, it is natural that there is a notification that the HDR quality of an image will be lost when transferred to another cellphone.
What else is premium? It seems that everything about this cellphone screen has entered the premium level. Including the presence of 100% P3 color gamut, 10-bit color, eye protection, and Gorilla Victus 2 screen protection.
UI and AI
This smartphone comes with a strong AI feature offering. Carrying realme UI 5.0 based on Android 14, the phone’s interface looks clean, easy to understand, rich in animations and to the point. With a number of additional new features, such as File Dock, which will make it easier for users to move files or screenshots from one application to another.
Similar to File Dock, the realme GT 6 also has an AI Smart Loop feature. Which is able to learn our habits of opening content, then identify it so that it can be easily shared to other applications, such as our social media. It will be easier and faster than moving to the intended social media application and looking for the content we want to send.
And, then a number of AI features are present in the IMAGING section aka the camera. Such as AI Night vision mode and AI Smart removal. 2 AI features that are now widely available, even on 3 million class phones.
It’s just that there are some interesting things we found when we first used this phone. Especially when using Dual Apps or Apps Cloner. We found a number of crashes, although not too annoying.
Flagship Class Performance
Next, we move on to the performance side. Here it must be admitted that the realme GT 6 uses a number of premium components. On the chipset side, for example, this phone uses the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3, which has been equipped with a 3.0 GHz X4 core, with a unique 1: 4: 3 configuration. So it can be seen that for standard or average needs, the number of cores is increased.
Usually the lowest core, in this case the Cortex A520 is provided more than the higher one. In this 8s Gen 3, the number of better cores, namely the Cortex A720 is made more, namely 4 cores compared to 3 A520 cores. Meanwhile, to boost performance, it is left to the 1 X4 core mentioned above.
In addition to the chipset, there is also premium class RAM and ROM. Namely LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 4.0 Overclock. The RAM is provided at 12 GB which can be increased using Dynamic RAM to 24 GB. While the storage media is 256 GB. Without additional memory slot.
It is certain that a number of benchmark applications show positive numbers. For example, reaching a score of 1.5 million in Antutu. Playing premium games can also be forced to the highest fps easily.
Coupled with the Iceberg Vapor Cooling System, the overall performance of the phone can be increased to the maximum point we want. With the price offered, with materials and designs like this, it’s hard to have any competitors.
Big Battery with SuperVOOC 120W
The days of charging a large battery that takes a long time seem to be behind us. With the combination of a large capacity, but thin battery, owned by the realme GT 6 and a charging power that is no less cool, 120W, users can cut down on the time to charge the battery.
It only takes less than 30 minutes to fully charge the cellphone battery. From zero, you know! Or about 10 minutes to reach 50%. It can be used for long calls, without having to be plugged into a charger.
With the note that this has become an inseparable ecosystem. This means that you should not use different charger heads and cables as much as possible to experience the speed and security promised by realme.
Flagship Camera
The realme GT 6 smartphone is indeed a flagship, if we don’t look at the price offered. Therefore, this phone carries a capable camera configuration. Although it cannot satisfy all groups.
Lately, there have been fans of tele-periscope cameras. For example, fans of the realme 12 Pro+, who were disappointed because there was no such camera configuration on the realme GT 6. However, with different technology, this phone tries to present equivalent quality. The main one is with the HyperTone Engine, which involves the Ai algorithm to integrate the lighting and shadow techniques produced.
There is a 50MP camera with a Sony LYT-808 sensor, measuring 1/1.4 inches, with an aperture of f/1.69 as the main camera. Next, for telephoto, they use a 50MP camera with a Samsung JN5 sensor, with ISOCELL technology that will increase the density of the image obtained so that it is not damaged when enlarged or cropped extremely.
Next, there is an 8MP Ultrawide camera with a Sony IMX355 sensor. Where all three work hand in hand to produce the images desired by the user.
For video needs, this rear camera is capable of recording 4K 30/60 fps videos, or with AI Night Mode it can produce 1080p 60fps videos and 1080p slow motion at 240 fps.
Switching to the front camera, for those of you who still use the front camera to create content, there is a 32MP camera that can capture 4K 30fps videos.
Several shooting modes are still present, including Night Mode, Portrait Mode, Fast capture, and Street Mode 4.0.
As previously mentioned, the realme GT 6 camera is heavily supported by AI, or realme calls it the intuitive NextAi. Including the shooting modes that we mentioned above.
realme GT 6 For Whom?
The longed-for realme flagship! That’s the realme GT 6. Present to answer the desires and needs of its users in Indonesia, this phone comes with a number of interesting features and is even made for a special group, the flagship market!
From premium design, slick materials, to guts that use the best components in the price class offered.
Those who need a phone with slick performance to create content, especially for editing videos without stuttering in CapCut, and can use it outdoors without obstacles are the market that needs this phone the most.
For limited storage media, it can be overcome by using internal SSD and also cloud storage.
