This is what you get inside the Realme Narzo 90X Design box:

• Realme Narzo 90X Smartphone
• 60W Fast Charger
• USB Type-C cable

• User manual

The Realme Narzo 90X is well packaged with all the requirements to start using it. The phone will be placed in the box along with a 60W fast charger, a USB Type-C cable, a protective case, and a SIM ejector tool. Realme also comes with a pre-applied screen protector, and some basic documentation, such as a quick start guide and warranty card. This will guarantee that users will be able to use the device immediately without the need to protect it at the very beginning.

Design & Build Quality

Realme Narzo 90X is available in two color choices Flash Blue and Nitro Blue, and I was able to test the Flash Blue. The finish is done in color that gives the phone a high-end feel, and makes it easy to carry. The device is 166.07 mm high, 77.93 mm wide, and 8.28 mm thick, which makes it feel comfortable in the palm, but the flat sides tend to pinch your palm a little when you use it a long time. It is 212 grams, which gives it a solid feel of lastingness.

The back panel is inspired by the high-end smartphones with a simple design. The faux leather-like quality is not only attractive to look at but also prevents fingerprints and smudges thus giving a nice feel. The camera module has three circular rings with the main camera and flash, and there are small color accents that are well integrated into the overall design.

On the functional front, the volume rocker is also a responsive fingerprint sensor and a 3.5mm headphone jack is positioned conveniently at the bottom. Also included in the phone are IP68/IP69 dust and water resistance which means that the phone can withstand accidental splashes and short term submersion. Its rugged design is also enhanced with 1 meter of water resistance lasting 30 minutes making it durable in daily life.

Display

Realme Narzo 90X has a huge IPS LCD display of 6.8 inches with HD+ resolution (720 x 1570 pixels) that provides sharp images at a pixel density of 254 ppi. The screen has a screen to body ratio of 87.4 percent, which is attributed to the use of thin edges and a punch-hole to install the selfie camera, making it appear modern. Gorilla Glass cover increases the durability of the panel, which prevents minor scratches and everyday wear.

The screen has a peak brightness of 1,200 nits, which is good enough to be seen even in the bright daylight. At the bottom, the lowest brightness is 1 nit which is quite handy when reading e-books or even when the phone is used in a dark environment without putting a lot of strain on the eyes. It has a 144Hz refresh rate which allows scrolling, browsing and gaming to be smooth and has a fluid and responsive feel to the display.

Colors are vivid and viewing angles are relatively good on an IPS panel and therefore, it is not difficult to share content with others without significant color variations. The phone however has a mono speaker, which is a slight restriction to the multimedia experience particularly when viewing videos or playing games.

The display of the Realme Narzo 90X provides a decent combination of size, brightness, and smoothness to its segment. Although its resolution and AMOLED panels are superior, the 6.8-inch size, 144Hz refresh rate, and decent brightness levels ensure that the model is a safe bet when it comes to routine activities, light gaming, and watching movies. It is convenient, contemporary, and affordable.

Camera

Realme Narzo 90X has a 50MP primary rear camera with aperture f/1.8 and an 8MP front-facing camera with aperture f/2.4. During daylight, the back camera takes pictures in natural colors, balanced exposure and in a decent level of detail. Although the dynamic range is not the broadest in the segment, the segment is still able to maintain the highlights and shadows relatively well, which makes photos look natural and pleasant. The HDR mode also enhances contrast in scenes with high contrast and the LED flash is used when taking photos in dull environments.

Daylight Photo:

In comparison to other mid-range phones, Narzo 90X daylight shots tend to be more inclined to natural color reproduction, as opposed to oversaturation. Shadows and skies are well maintained and images possess a satisfactory level of clarity thus it is dependable in daily photography. The camera also has support for such features as face detection, touch-to-focus, exposure compensation, ISO control, digital zoom and continuous shooting thus it is flexible to casual users. At 30fps, the videos are recordable at 1080p, which provides reasonable smoothness and clarity in social media content.

Low-light Photo:

Low-light photography demonstrates the weaknesses of the main camera. Noise is more prominent and fine details are more likely to blur especially in shadows. Night mode is a little better but the situation as compared to some of its competitors, in sharpness and edge detection, still remains poor.

The 8 MP front camera can capture decent selfies during bright days, and the warm and natural colors can be seen on social media and look appealing. Nevertheless, during low-light situations, the images may be slightly blurred, and the details of edges are not well-maintained. The skin textures can be made smooth and this can be attractive to some users but loses detail in detail oriented shots. Video recording of selfies is restricted to 1080p 30fps.

Altogether, Realme Narzo 90X camera is a good choice in daytime and informal photography, with the natural color and acceptable clarity. The low-light performance is decent and not outstanding, whereas the front camera provides decent selfies when the conditions are good. The camera system is convenient and trustworthy in case of sharing social media and doing casual photography.

Performance & Software

Realme Narzo 90X is an entry-level phone that is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 6300 5G chipset, based on 6nm manufacturing, with up to 6GB RAM and 128GB of internal memory. Storage is expandable through a microSD card and the device has virtual RAM expansion to facilitate better multitasking. Performance in day-to-day use is good, apps load fast, the interface is easy to navigate and there are few stutters. Casual gaming is also managed properly, but graphically intensive games can experience frame drops in some cases.

The phone is powered by Realme UI 6.0 that is based on Android 15 offering a clean and responsive software experience. The apps that come pre-installed are few and can be removed, and there are some third-party games. Realme provides some considerate software options like Air Gestures, which enable users to scroll through videos or receive calls without touching the screen. The power button can also be programmed to perform various tasks and the Riding Mode can be used to minimize distractions when on the road and only receive incoming calls.

To average consumers, the Dimensity 6300, 6GB RAM and Realme UI combination will guarantee users a hassle-free multi-tasking, video streaming, and social media experience. The Mali-G57 MC2 is a graphics core that is capable of supporting most of the mid-range games, but high-end 3D games might need graphics card settings to be reduced.

The software support is also very enticing with one major Android upgrade and up to two years of security updates being guaranteed. Altogether, the Realme Narzo 90X is a well-balanced performance and software improvement, providing a responsive and feature-filled experience to use in everyday life and consider the power efficiency and usability.

AnTuTu Benchmark & GeekBench Score

In the case of the AnTuTu benchmark and Geekbench benchmarks, the Realme Narzo 90X scores are respectably high in terms of its segment, indicating that the MediaTek Dimensity 6300 chipset can compete on a daily basis.

The Narzo 90X achieved approximately 4,58,821 points in AnTuTu v10 tests, which indicates good performance in general workloads of CPU, GPU, memory, and UX. This puts it in a comfortable position compared to most of the other budget and mid-range phones particularly those that have older chips.

It scored approximately 981 in single-core and 2,882 in multi-core on Geekbench 6, which is reasonably efficient in regular work and multitasking. The scores are in line with its hardware setup, and this is the reason why the phone is responsive in its daily usage, such as browsing, social applications, and non-intensive gaming.

Remember that benchmark numbers are artificial and may differ with software optimization, but provide a clear indication that the Narzo 90X is faster than most entry-level phones and is not quite as fast as a flagship.

Battery & Charger

The Realme Narzo 90X has a huge 7,000mAh lithium-ion battery that guarantees a long time of use during the day and even longer to most users. The phone can comfortably take one day without being charged in everyday activities like browsing, social media and video streaming. The battery drain is also controlled even in cases of intensive use, which is indicative of the effectiveness of the MediaTek Dimensity 6300 chipset and software optimization.

The charging is a good feature, as 60W wired fast charging will charge the battery to 100 percent in about 70-75 minutes. This renders topping up fast and convenient even to heavy users. The phone is also enabled to do reverse wired charging, which means that it can charge other devices in case of need.

The non-removable battery is accompanied by a USB Type-C 2.0 port that has become the standard in modern smartphones. Altogether, the high capacity, quick charge, and effective power management make the Realme Narzo 90X a stable option in the case of the user, who values a long battery life and minimum downtimes. The device is comfortable to support day-to-day needs whether working, gaming or watching the media.
