Verdict
The Realme 12x closely resembles its older sibling, the Realme 12 Pro. While the Pro model boasts a vegan leather finish, the 12x comes with a plastic build. The Realme 12x features a 6.72-inch LCD display with a 120Hz refresh rate, offering a decent viewing experience for its price range. However, don't expect the vibrant colours of an AMOLED display. At the rear, the phone comes with a 50MP primary camera and a 2MP depth sensor, but it lacks an ultra-wide camera. Photos taken with the Realme 12x are sharp, though the colours tend to be on the warmer side. The 8MP front camera captures selfies with artificial skin tones but is still social-media ready. Low-light photography results in grainy and noisy images. Powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 6100+ SoC, the Realme 12x handles everyday tasks like calling, texting, social media, and casual browsing well. For heavy gaming, it can run titles like BGMI on HD graphics, but you might experience some stutters and lags. The device runs on Android 14 out-of-the-box, offering plenty of animations and customisation options. The Realme 12x includes a 5000mAh battery and comes with a 45W SUPERVOOC charger. It takes about 55 minutes to an hour to fully charge, and the battery can last a full day with light to moderate use. Considering its design, functionality, and impressive battery life, the Realme 12x is a solid choice for those seeking an affordable and stylish smartphone for everyday use.
