Realme 11 5G: 6.72-inch IPS smartphone with Dimensity 6100+, 8GB RAM, 108MP dual primary camera, 16MP selfie camera, and 5000 mAh battery

With such mouth-watering specs and available on a budget, here's to the Realme 11 5G and whether you should get it as your next smartphone.

But before that, let's take a quick trip down memory lane with the Realme 10, shall we?

• 6.4-inch Full HD+ Super AMOLED with 1080 x 2400 pixels, 20:9 ratio or ~411 ppi density
• 90Hz refresh rate
• 1000 nits (peak) brightness
• Glass front (Gorilla Glass 5), plastic frame, plastic back
• Corning Gorilla Glass 5 protection

• 309 USD price tag for the 128GB internal storage + 4GB RAM variant and 399 USD price tag for the 128GB internal storage + 8GB RAM variant

Last year, the Realme 10 was not necessarily a budget smartphone, given its mid-range offerings. In some cases, it takes a step behind, for example, its dual primary camera. And in other cases, there's no upgrade to be seen – it still comes without 5G as per its predecessor. You will be hard-pressed to upgrade if you already have Realme 9, which was much cheaper when it was first released.

Now then, let's turn our attention to the latest installment in a long line of releases – the Realme 11 5G, which has the following specs:

• 6.72-inch Full HD+ IPS LCD with 1080 x 2400 pixels, 20:9 ratio or ~392 ppi density
• 120Hz refresh rate
• 550 nits brightness (typical), 680 nits (high brightness mode)
• Fingerprint sensor (side-mounted)
• Glass front, metal frame, plastic back
• Mediatek Dimensity 6100+ (6 nm) chipset, Octa-core (2x2.2 GHz Cortex-A76 & 6x2.0 GHz Cortex-A55) processor, Mali-G57 MC2 graphics and 8GB RAM
• Dual primary camera; 108MP with f/1.8 aperture, 24mm (wide), 1/1.67", 0.64µm and PDAF + 2MP with f/2.4 aperture, (depth), LED flash, HDR, panorama, 3x high-quality zoom
• 16MP selfie camera with f/2.5 aperture, 23mm, Panorama and HDR
• 256GB internal storage with microSDXC expansion slot
• Non-removable Li-Po 5000 mAh battery with Fast battery charging 67W (50% in just 17 minutes)
• Android 13 operating system
• Dual-sim and 5G
• 31^st July 2023 release date
• 8,990 New Taiwan Dollars or ~285 USD price tag

The Realme 11 5G, released at the end of last month, comes in a 6.72-inch size with an LCD screen and Full HD+ resolution. The high refresh rate and brightness make for an excellent viewing pleasure and experience while on the smartphone.

Under the Realme 11 5G hood is the mid-range Dimensity 6100+ chipset, a decently fast Cortex octa-core processor, good graphics, and 8GB RAM. You can run most apps and games without any hiccups.

Another highlight of the show about the Realme 11 5G is its 108MP+2MP dual primary camera packed with good features and functions. This setup allows for some good photo-taking adventure, and the 3x high-quality zoom function is fantastic.

Storage-wise, the 256GB of internal storage lets you install your favorite apps and games. On top of that, there's also the microSDXC expansion slot which allows you to expand further.

The Realme 11 5G is powered by a 5000 mAh battery that can easily last for a full day of charge. When the time comes to plug it in, the 67W fast battery charger makes short work – it only takes 17 minutes to take up to 50% of battery life.

Finally, we have the latest Android 13 operating system, dual-sim capability, and 5G connectivity, adding more value to an already good device.

Conclusion:

Realme 11 5G is a good choice for those looking for a good mid-range smartphone with good features and functions. But I believe that at this price point, you can find other alternatives.

Realme 11 5G had just been released on 31^st July 2023 with a price tag of 8,990 New Taiwan Dollars or ~285 USD. You can choose either Midnight Black or Sunrise Gold color.
