Realme recently unveiled batch two of its latest numbers series in India, including the Realme 13 and the
Unfortunately, there’s no other usable sensor on the phone. The secondary camera is a depth sensor that helps with portrait photos, but the results aren’t that great. Moving on to the front, the selfie camera also lacks skin colour and details, but it takes good photos in daylight conditions. However, it suffers even more in low-light conditions. Coming to video, the Realme 13+ can shoot videos at a max resolution of 4K at 30fps. You’ll need to switch to 1080p at 60fps for ultra-steady video. The video quality is decent, and you can get well-stabilised shots in daylight with punchy colours.
Realme 13+ Battery: Long lasting
- Capacity – 5,000mAh
- Fast charging – 80W
- Charger – Included
The Realme 13+ has a 5,000mAh battery that can easily last a day or longer with normal usage. While 5,000mAh isn’t anything special at this price range, 80W fast charging support is included.
In our HD video loop test, the smartphone lasted about 29 hours, which is pretty impressive. In day-to-day usage, I got about 6-7 hours of screen on time with the screen set at 120Hz refresh rate. As for charging speeds, the phone went from dead to 100 percent in about 55 minutes. You can get a full day’s charge with about 30 minutes of charge.
Realme 13+ Verdict
If you’re out to purchase a budget phone that’s great for gaming and offers good battery life, the Realme 13+ is an excellent choice. The phone also has a decent primary rear camera, a smooth display, and a nice minimal design, and you get a segment-best 80W fast charging. However, if you’re upgrading from a Realme 12+, I think you should skip this one.
There are quite a few alternatives in the same price range. For example, the Nothing Phone 2a (Review) is also a good choice if you want a unique design, similar performance, decent cameras, and a much better software experience. The Motorola Edge 50 Fusion (Review) also offers better cameras, software, and design. You could also look at something like the OnePlus Nord CE 4 (Review), which offers improvements in all areas.
