Realme Narzo 70 Pro 5G lands in the sub Rs 20,000 segment

Realme claims to address the problem of lowlight photography with a large Sony IMX890 sensor.

Realme’s Narzo 70 Pro 5G becomes the latest device to land in the cluttered sub Rs 20,000 segment. This device has been getting a lot of buzz for its feature set that includes a vibrant display, and what Realme is calling a high-quality camera set up backed by a solid spec sheet. The first sale of this smartphone commences on March 26, 2024. We take you through the highlights of this device:

Horizon Glass Design: ‘One glass, two textures’. That’s how Realme describes its proprietary horizon glass design that is finished with exquisite matte glass. Realme claims the nano-scale AG glass lends a silky smooth touch and resists stains. The brand’s refined mirror glass finish features an ultra-high-transparency glass for a clear and transparent texture. Realme seeks inspiration for its design from the horizon during sunset.

Improved lowlight performance: Lowlight photography has been one of the cribs at this price point. Realme claims to address this with a large Sony IMX890 sensor. The 50MP primary lens with SuperOIS, an f/1.88 aperture and a large 1/1.56” sensor aims to cut out the noise in your lowlight images. The camera set up includes an 8MP ultra-wide lens and a 2MP macro lens complemented by a 16MP selfie shooter.

Under the hood: The Narzo 70 Pro 5G is powered by a Dimensity 7050 5G chipset. It comes with 8GB of RAM (up to 16GB of what Realme calls Dynamic RAM) and a choice of 128GB and 256GB internal storage options.

Robust battery: Realme keeps the heft of the device under 200 gm, despite a massive 5000 mAh battery. There’s a 67W SuperVOOC charger in the box.

Bright display: The 6.67-inch AMOLED display (2400 x 1080 pixels) is one of the highlights of the device. It peaks at an impressive 2000 nits of screen brightness and also features a 120Hz refresh rate. The display is immersive, almost bezel-less. Realme stretches the screen: body ratio to 92.65%.

The Realme Narzo 70 Pro 5G comes in Glass Green and Glass Gold. The 8GB/128GB variant costs Rs 19,999 while the 8GB/256GB option is priced at Rs 21,999.
