The camera module has been kept separate from the entire back panel. You are going to get a mirror-like feel in it.

This smartphone also looks quite different in terms of design.
Its display has a resolution of 2780 x 1264. It has a refresh rate of 120Hz. The display panel is AMOLED which felt quite vibrant and smooth. In this, the company has given a peak brightness of 6000 nits, so that you can use it very easily in sunlight.
Note- In terms of design and display, we liked this phone overall but we had a little problem with its size and speaker. Its display size is quite large, so people with small hands may have a lot of trouble using it with a single hand. You will have to use it with both hands most of the time. Along with this, the loudness of its speaker could have been increased a little more.
Realme GT 6T performance and software
Realme has given amazing features in Realme GT 6T. This phone has up to 12GB of RAM and up to 512GB of storage. This smartphone comes with Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3 processor.

Note- Realme GT 6T offers great performance. There is no problem of heating or warming in it, but when we played games, we realized that its battery drains fast. It is possible that the company will solve this in the upcoming update. If you play games continuously for a couple of hours, then you may have to put the phone on charging soon.

NOTE- In our testing, we found the camera of Realme GT 6T to be average. You can neither call it very good nor very bad. However, in the price segment in which this smartphone comes, a much better camera setup could have been given. Realme GT 6T works well during the day but its camera struggles a lot at night. In the price segment in which the company has launched it, many companies are offering triple camera setup and sensor with better resolution. If you want to buy this smartphone only for photography, then it may disappoint you.

It takes only 40-45 minutes to fully charge from zero to 100 percent. If you are a moderate user, then you can easily run it for a day after full charge.

However, you have to keep in mind that if you do not care about the camera performance, then you can go for it without hesitation. In this price bracket, it offers you great looks, strong performance. If you want to buy a unique looking phone that attracts people’s attention, then you can buy Realme GT 6T.
