Update: A Week With The Realme Phone: Some Things I’ve Noticed. by Astraeus(op): 12:58pm On Jul 27, 2025
After using it daily for the past week, a few patterns are starting to show. The battery does hold up well, even with moderate social media use, streaming, and occasional gaming, I’m still ending most days with 20–30% left. Charging speed is quick too, though I’ve been mindful not to overuse it while plugged in.

The display is bright enough for outdoor use, but I’ve noticed the auto-brightness can be a bit inconsistent at times. But thats very negligible. Performance-wise, it handles multitasking reasonably well. A couple of frame drops here and there, but nothing major unless too many apps are running in the background and even then it's just because I am seeking perfection.

One thing I’ve had to adjust to is the software skin. It’s packed with features, which can be useful, but also takes some digging to customize things the way I like. I’ve uninstalled or disabled most of the preloaded apps, the phone feels lighter without them.

Still no major complaints. Will see how it ages with more demanding use over time.

For me, I think the realme really worked to upgrade the performance of C75x as opposed to the earlier released C75...

That back camera design is really clean to be honest

This might be the budget phone of the year seriously

Very wise decision to not over use while charging. This act alone reduces phone battery quality

With too much apps running in background, if you switch from one app to the other, does the app restart?

realmeC75x here and there. A days can’t pass by without seeing videos and advert from the brand.
What’s the deal?

I think there comes an advantage with the 120hz refresh rate as opposed to the 90hz refresh rate of the C75, plus newer feel and a cheaper price

i have read that the major difference is the c75x having a better refresh rate but i think the C75 has a better processor

I feel the same way about it

Glad to hear it’s holding up in real-world use
Re: Update: A Week With The Realme Phone: Some Things I’ve Noticed. by Desewa08: 8:23pm On Aug 10, 2025
The fact it still runs smooth with multitasking is a big plus
Re: Update: A Week With The Realme Phone: Some Things I’ve Noticed. by Desewa08: 8:23pm On Aug 10, 2025
Good to know the bloatware can be removed
