realme GT 6 Review: An AI-infused Gaming Powerhouse!

Calling all gamers and tech enthusiasts! The realme GT series, known for its flagship-crushing specs at a competitive price, is back. Can the GT series live up to its “flagship killer” reputation?

With the phone’s unboxing, design, and display out of the way(we already tackled these topics in our first impressions article), it’s time for the real thrill ride: exploring the GT 6’s performance and camera prowess!

Performance

The realme GT 6 boasts impressive specs, packing a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 processor and scoring a staggering 1.4 million on AnTuTu Benchmark – especially impressive for its price range. But raw power doesn’t tell the whole story. We put the GT 6 through its paces to see how it performs under real-world pressure: can it handle demanding games without overheating?

The realme GT 6 muscles through demanding games at the highest settings – flawlessly. No stutters, no lag, just pure gaming bliss. But can it handle the heat of intense battles? The answer is impressive. The GT 6’s Iceberg vapor cooling system keeps its composure even under heavy load. Take Genshin Impact, for example. This graphically demanding game pushes phones to their limits, but the GT 6 remains remarkably cool, reaching a peak temperature of only 41.3°C. That’s impressive!

While gaming phones prioritize performance, battery life shouldn’t be an afterthought. The realme GT 6 holds its own during extended gaming sessions, especially considering its powerful specs and high graphics quality settings.

Battery and charging

With a charging speed of 120W, the realme GT 6 managed to charge from 1% to 100% in just under 30 minutes, which is neat and perfectly advertised. This is perfect; especially for gamers that will need the extra juice everyday.

Camera

The realme GT 6 boasts a triple camera system (50MP main + 8MP ultrawide + 50MP telephoto) that sounds impressive on paper. 

The realme GT 6’s camera system thrives in various lighting conditions. The 50MP main sensor takes center stage,capturing crisp and detailed photos with lifelike colors. Whether you’re snapping memories under a sunny sky or in well-lit environments, the results are impressive.

The 8MP ultrawide camera tackles low-light situations admirably, producing quality shots even after dark. And the telephoto lens brings distant subjects closer, ensuring you get the details you need.

realme’s AI gets a shoutout too. It intelligently enhances your photos, taking them to the next level without sacrificing natural-looking results.

The realme GT 6 also lets you clean up your photos with its AI object removal tool.

Video recording

Capture stunning detail with 4K 60fps video. This phone doesn’t just record videos, it creates cinematic experiences. Shoot smooth, high-resolution footage that perfectly captures every moment, ideal for fast-paced action or recording professional-looking vlogs.  Plus, experience unshakeable stability with Ultra Steady mode.
