Which phone are YOU most excited about in 2022? The next Samsung? The Next iPhone? Next Pixel? 🧐 I made a fun video last week filled with 50 facts about me: ruclips.net/video/F2EfTe7YOT4/видео.html OR, if you want to see some of the most TRAGIC Tech fails of all time: ruclips.net/video/IErvIekMD3U/видео.html
I have had my realme 7 pro for a little under an year now, and it's amazing! 128GB storage and 6GB RAM for $260 is absolutely shocking pricing, no? Not to mention, 64MP camera and SAmoled+ with 65 watt superdart charging. I love realme.
they don't follow the trend, they follow their own trend. that's what makes them a good company. ( But their not original ofcs since bbk company, sharing Ideas or copy if you will )
meh, I would rather have S21 with it's polished software and fast updates. Software is just as important as hardware and with realme software is a real issue.
@@THECAR99 No.. My Note 10+ with Exynos is just as fast today as when it was released.. So either you mean some years ago or it's a regional thing depending on the chipset. And it's also recomended to do a fresh reset of the phone after a big OS update. And remember to clear system cache after some time. This keeps the phones fresh as new. Never had issues with slow down. Just when specific apps get too advanced for old hardware.
Hey Arun, just wanted to say, I really, REALLY enjoy your day-in-the-life videos with phones. It would be great if you could post more because it's been a long time since you last did. Really appreciate how well your videos are made, and I do notice the little details as well (and rickrolls!). Also, can you maybe talk a b it about budget phones in more detail? maybe a phone-buying guide video? Thanks.
I have been using Realme XT for about 2 years now. I have been receiving updates regularly (late, but regular). Started with Android 9, now on Android 11, and the performance has been able to hold against plenty odds.
Honestly i feel like this is gonna either go 2 ways: 1. It brings down the price of other android flagships 2. The brand’s uniqueness will disappear either due to the new competition or they will eventually rise their prices back up. (Im thinking sorta oneplus style few years of greatness then a sinking back into normality and relative anonymity)
@@TheLordKitten bro stop lying to yourself to comfort yourself hahaha you know you need an upgrade, you are biased af and you can see it is on 1 million antutu score xD. Just because it is an unpopular brand doesn't mean it can't produce good products. Admit it to yourself, YOU ARE SEVERELY BIASED. HAHAHAHAH.
I found the realme X2 pro in 2019 in the USA under $500, including the extra $20 for an adapter for the plug. I wanted it for the 90Hz screen with Snapdragon 855+. The phone is STILL running like new and with no broken screen. Plus, that 65W Supervisor charger still gets me from 10% battery power to 100% in 30 minutes. I charge it once per day while I shower and brush my teeth before bed. For that price in that year, I feel like I got the best available bang for my buck. I hope realme's trend of making quality at this low price keeps up.
I have same X2 pro from dec 2019 and it's going strong with no issues at all. I literally charge the phone everyday while brushing and bathing 😅 and it runs all day and again I charge it to 60-70% around 8pm. When I open the back cover the phone looks new, I do that once in a while to change my mind from buying new one and wasting money 😂😂.
I absolutely love my Realme 7 Pro because of its excellent battery life and fast charging. I've just got my hubby the Realme 9 Pro because, to my horror, Amazon no longer did the 7 but its turning out to be just as good and has a slightly larger screen too. Mine does a great macro mode photo for photographing insects and both support an SD card for extra storage so that I can load music onto it.
I've been using Realme X for more then 2 years and the pop up camera is still smooth as butter and the performance drop is negligible. Realme are making tanks in low-mid budgets
Yep! I don't know why haters gonna hate, but hey atleast Realme uses those hate to fuel them motivation bar up 😂 Always dare to leap no matter how silly some of their phone designs are. some are wack and some are astoundingly pleasing to look at.
I'm glad realme is starting to get recognised. Back in 2020, i used to say realme is the new OnePlus. I got the realme x50 pro on 2020 and its still running smooth 💯. Such a great phone with a midrange price. It used to be so underrated back then but I'm scared it'll turn out to be like OnePlus once it gets popular
@@st3yn probably yes but probably not, from the beginning, realme was supposed to counter Xiaomi's dominance, particularly starting with Realme 2 Pro, OnePlus was supposed to be strictly a rebellious flagship-killer which is probably not a good profitmaker in the long term, hence the price hike As long as Xiaomi doesn't have a major change in their pricing strategy (which is the backbone of their whole brand) realme won't be like oneplus
I bought my realme X2 pro cause of your video about it and I ve had ir for almost 3 years now, it's incredible this sustainability of this thing. It doesn't break, it doesn't get slower, even with the already in use 240 gb of storage. This things are really good, realme is a real brand.
I bought the Realms X2 Pro in 2019 after watching your review and I still feel like I don't need to rush to upgrade yet & could easily wait well into next year without breaking a sweat. Was well worth the purchass
The lack of updates for that thing was depressing. It was launched with Android 9, when 10 was out for a while. So you basically only got one rather minor update from 10 to 11 for its entire lifespan.
Realme 2019 flagship ( Realme X2 pro ) still runs smooth...... Been using it for more than 2 years now...... And Realme GT2 Pro seems a great upgrade for my current mobile.
I have realme gt 5g racing yellow variant. I really like the leather texture and the flagship experience is very awesome! The reason that I bought this is because of its 3.5mm headphone jack. But overall, Realme is really doing its job!!
Ngl i own the realme narzo 20 pro which has the helio g95 gaming chip which works quite well when it comes to casual gaming but this thing hits at a different level i really want to get the racing yellow gt and gt 2 pro 🤩

I've had my X3 superzoom for a little over a year now. Paid around 400€ for it. Superhappy with it,very good value for the money. Will definitely consider a Realme next time I'm buying a new phone.
I genuinely don't know how your channel appeared onto my recommended but it interested me and I've never been happier some random video came up. Your videos are engaging and educational on technology that I'm slowly getting into more and more as I watch your videos. Thank you so much, luck seems to be on my side.
Been using the Realme 5 Pro for 2.5 years now. Never regretted it. We have software and security updates every 2 months. I bought the phone when it was Android 9 and now I have it upgraded to Android 11. No major issue at all. Looking forward to using it 2 years more. Edit: My friend has the Oppo Realme 1 (their first phone), and it still works ok. He even plays Pubg and other mobile games with it aswell. It does have some battery and lag issues, but its impressive that a phone that's 4 years old can run most software tasks.
This phone made me feel exactly what REALME X2 PRO made me feel 2 years ago, which I still use till this day... And it still runs smooth as any last gen flagship phone, thanks to this video, I think I know what my next phone will be 😌.
I've gone from the Realme X2 Pro to the Samsung S20 FE 5G. In some aspects I feel like I've downgraded as it had 12gb ram, 256gb storage, better stereo speakers, 50w fast charge 10x zoom, vapour chamber for additional cooling, 90hz refresh rate (not much difference from 120hz), better battery life, gorilla glass 5 etc. The list is endless with that phone BUT.... The Micro SD card, IP68 water and dust resistance is a must. But the most important for me is updates. Samsung never skips this part while Realme only gave me 3 with one android 11 update. Pros and cons to each but feel more secure with the Samsung and hold more value if it came to me selling it. I also feel if I switched back to Realme I would be concerned unless they can guarantee regular patch/security updates and maybe throw in 2-3 years android updates similar to Samsung or Nokia for example. Android 11 came out in October 2020 (I think) but Realme didn't apply this untill May 2021. I kept the phone for two years from 2019 but only one software update. Sold the Realme phone on, made a loss but used the additional cash to put towards the Samsung S20 FE 5G.
@@EnterGaming Ah man. The S20 FE 5G wipes the floor with alot of phone in a midrange budget. Shame about the charging speed though. I'm really enjoying it especially the camera quality. The Realme was ok for camera but was better with the Gcam app installed. The fixed focus selfie camera on the Realme wasn't that good. A mixed bag really. The S20 FE 5G is sort of future proofing with its 5g capability and the SD Card slot is a winner! The latest S21 or S22 lacks afew options and is definitely NOT worth the upgrade. I'm keeping a eye out for the same S20 FE 5G with deals and want to get the wife one. The Samsung A52 seems better for her but the A53 with Samsung's chipset means they have gone backwards and lacks the performance what a Snapdragon chip can do on the A52. So it's either S20 FE 5G or A52 for the wife if/when funds allow. She's currently got a Realme 5 pro which has gone down the toilet twice, scratched camera lens and bungged up with alot of crap on the internal memory. So time is ticking to get her one 🤣 The one thing I wish for in a update on the Samsung FE 5G is so you can switch to auto screen refresh or switch between 60hz, 90hz, 120hz to make the battery more supreme 😎 The one thing I give hats off to Realme is the vapour cooling chamber. It's never dropped performance when getting warm while the Samsung gets alot hotter meaning I could be getting less performance.
I used a realme x2 for almost 2 years. They are genuinely good for the price. But yes, the update situation is bad. They don't introduce bugs through updates, never felt like that but the updates, especially major Android updates are extremely delayed. Apart from that, they provide a bang for your buck.
Even Nokia have non managable bugs like auto restart. Blaming Google is the right way instead of the manufacture of the phone. 😌. Bugs already been there Even your use a android One experience. 😌. Which software update by Google😅
Nokia is bad example, they were really popular 15years ago or so but nowerdays, most people see Nokia as a joke and don‘t expect much from a Nokia phone.
Yeah and the software is a bit yanky now and then. I've had some weird glitches happening over the years with camera crashes or Telegram/Whatsapp not recording audio all of a sudden. Or that it's apparently a system wide setting now to not be able to take screenshots of everything because of privacy, didn't have that issue with my OnePlus 3T. But besides that it's been running great since its release. Only just now noticing a bit of battery drop off after 2,25 years.

I just watch your videeo to only hear your voice and the way you describe everything from the company to the device. the video making skill of yours is too great. I love you
I subscribed Your Channel after this video and other ones with Galaxy S22 Ultra. Great knowledge and magnificent English accent for foreginer viewers. Greetings from Poland!
I love how much work Arun puts into his vids and cats Deserves the 10 Million Plaque I hope they deliver the diamond play button in the form factor of a phone 😂
I went and watched your very first video, the one on optimizing your ZTE Blade, and then immediately watched this afterwards. The difference in energy took me back a bit. It is crazy to see the difference and growth of the channel in a relatively short time. AMAZING WORK!
Realme and Redmi r making so really great phones and for the price u really cant beat it i just wish ppl wernt so caught up n buying a name Cuz if more ppl nee about these phone i know they would make a killing n the US market
Look forward to the innovation this company has to bring. As well as the ability to provide sustainable hopefully durable phones as well as less buggy software updates.
Enjoy your channel was wondering and this phone, I am considering weather it be my next phone, not the greatest but bloody good for the price. Brought my first realme phone a realme 6, dammm it a good phone. Hope realme keeps up what they doing.
Still owning my realme6 from your budget smartphones review. Love it, got the 8/128 one, still running like the first day (have it for almost 2 years).
Regarding the updates situation: Realme appears to already have been working on improving steadily. I own the Realme X50 Pro 5G and this is running on android patch 2021#12, still receiving regular updates close to 2 years after its initial launch in March 2020.
I just love realme! Using Their 'realme 8' its Cheap as hell and literally have everything i need! 8GB ram, 128 GB rom, 64MP cam, 5k battery in just 269USD 😍
One of a kind phone. I hope I had this on my 32nd bday on January 24, but. No budget. Soo. Patiently thankful for my 5-year china rom phone.... And to be more grateful that I am alive despite of this pandemic. Keep safe and sound idol Aron! Godbless!😘
I wanna say this Arun. You and MKBHD have the best video resolution quality in tech RUclips. Even when I watch in 1080p I can barely notice a difference between 2160p using 300Mbps internet. Normally most tech channels only have 1080p max and many have 480p to 720p video at most and it really strains my eyes. But your videos don't. I don't know if it's your equipment, how you upload it or what but I wanted to say thank you for setting the video quality bar high because it needs to be. My eyes thank you Arun continue being awesome 👌 👏
I discovered this channel 4 days ago and I can't stop watching your videos man. I just love everything about these. The passion for the tech you're talking about, the editing quality, and your ability to keep me engaged throughout 25 min videos that go like a breeze. You have earned a new sub and you can be sure I'll be telling my friends and college partners about this channel 👏👏👏
If Realme starts making smaller phones, I'll definitely consider getting one. Was setting up a Realme phone for a family member around Christmas and was really impressed by it.
I remember asking my uncle who worked at IT the best Android phone years ago. he only said two brands; Xiaomi and realme. glad they're making waves now
what a brilliant phone for the beginning of the year, great presentation by arun, well pointed facts too. this will still be tough to beat for the other flagships. it surpassed the first one 8 gen1 from Motorola. i would love to have one myself, hey arun share those other phones you still have right there. 😁
This happens every year- all the Chinese phones bring basic features at the beginning of the year then when Samsung comes out w their S series they steal all the spotlight and actually provide a superior hardware and superior software experience. Then the iPhone does the same thing later on. Since the pixel 6 it’s safe to assume they also would follow on the footsteps
@@lifeisshrt7929 well you're right about that. More or less samsung has a reliability factor to them which is nice. These Chinese phone companies are kinda shady considering that the US banned Huawei. There might be something more happening in the background of these Chinese companies that we are yet to know about.
@@jupiteruniverse8683 I wasn’t really talking about that but yes that’s definitely a factor. Everybody should really be getting Samsung Apple or Google tbh
Been using the realme x2 pro master edition for 2 years. Seeing that GT 2 Pro on your hands made me feel that feeling again. The only thing holding me back from buying again is the fact that this phone still performs very well.

Edit: My friend has the Oppo Realme 1 (their first phone), and it still works ok. He even plays Pubg and other mobile games with it aswell. It does have some battery and lag issues, but its impressive that a phone that's 4 years old can run most software tasks.

Realme 3 pro 3 year sill works like butter
yes bro I find realme to be most practical phones in the segments.
I also had that but now using redmi note 10 pro but my mom still uses my 5 pro which works amazing
This phone made me feel exactly what REALME X2 PRO made me feel 2 years ago, which I still use till this day... And it still runs smooth as any last gen flagship phone, thanks to this video, I think I know what my next phone will be 😌.
Wait a bit for 6 months & they'll release a more refined one
i think they just rushed to make this phone as the first phone to use the SD 8 Gen 1 to get publicity
Yeah me too. Mine is flying still and am still getting updates.
The X2 pro is still fast as if it were taken out of the box for the first time
Same for my X3 Superzoom
I've gone from the Realme X2 Pro to the Samsung S20 FE 5G.
In some aspects I feel like I've downgraded as it had 12gb ram, 256gb storage, better stereo speakers, 50w fast charge 10x zoom, vapour chamber for additional cooling, 90hz refresh rate (not much difference from 120hz), better battery life, gorilla glass 5 etc. The list is endless with that phone BUT.... The Micro SD card, IP68 water and dust resistance is a must. But the most important for me is updates. Samsung never skips this part while Realme only gave me 3 with one android 11 update. Pros and cons to each but feel more secure with the Samsung and hold more value if it came to me selling it.
I also feel if I switched back to Realme I would be concerned unless they can guarantee regular patch/security updates and maybe throw in 2-3 years android updates similar to Samsung or Nokia for example.
Android 11 came out in October 2020 (I think) but Realme didn't apply this untill May 2021. I kept the phone for two years from 2019 but only one software update.
Sold the Realme phone on, made a loss but used the additional cash to put towards the Samsung S20 FE 5G.
At what price you sold it BCS there may be a possibility that I buyed from you at 16k
Thanks God I am not the only one that got an s20 fe in 2022.

I'm based in the UK. I paid £449 I think but sold it to my brother for £200. He loves it 👍

Ah man. The S20 FE 5G wipes the floor with alot of phone in a midrange budget. Shame about the charging speed though.
I'm really enjoying it especially the camera quality. The Realme was ok for camera but was better with the Gcam app installed. The fixed focus selfie camera on the Realme wasn't that good. A mixed bag really.
The S20 FE 5G is sort of future proofing with its 5g capability and the SD Card slot is a winner!
The latest S21 or S22 lacks afew options and is definitely NOT worth the upgrade. I'm keeping a eye out for the same S20 FE 5G with deals and want to get the wife one. The Samsung A52 seems better for her but the A53 with Samsung's chipset means they have gone backwards and lacks the performance what a Snapdragon chip can do on the A52.
So it's either S20 FE 5G or A52 for the wife if/when funds allow.
She's currently got a Realme 5 pro which has gone down the toilet twice, scratched camera lens and bungged up with alot of crap on the internal memory. So time is ticking to get her one 🤣
The one thing I wish for in a update on the Samsung FE 5G is so you can switch to auto screen refresh or switch between 60hz, 90hz, 120hz to make the battery more supreme 😎
The one thing I give hats off to Realme is the vapour cooling chamber. It's never dropped performance when getting warm while the Samsung gets alot hotter meaning I could be getting less performance.
@@user-kp9qb4it8y definitely go for a52s over the a52
I like how you just sit it that chair and start explaining everything about it , that even the developer didn't know existed
I used a realme x2 for almost 2 years. They are genuinely good for the price. But yes, the update situation is bad. They don't introduce bugs through updates, never felt like that but the updates, especially major Android updates are extremely delayed.
Apart from that, they provide a bang for your buck.
Even Nokia have non managable bugs like auto restart. Blaming Google is the right way instead of the manufacture of the phone. 😌. Bugs already been there Even your use a android One experience. 😌. Which software update by Google😅
Nokia is bad example, they were really popular 15years ago or so but nowerdays, most people see Nokia as a joke and don‘t expect much from a Nokia phone.
Yeah and the software is a bit yanky now and then. I've had some weird glitches happening over the years with camera crashes or Telegram/Whatsapp not recording audio all of a sudden.
Or that it's apparently a system wide setting now to not be able to take screenshots of everything because of privacy, didn't have that issue with my OnePlus 3T.
But besides that it's been running great since its release. Only just now noticing a bit of battery drop off after 2,25 years.
@@abdulwafi2634 lol you can't blame Google for the bugs in your phone unless your phone uses stock Android.
@@abdulwafi2634 Android is an open source OS and companies can tweak the way they like, they add features which are not available in stock android. Google are not to blame for custom android modified and customized by different manufacturers.
Love seeing realme moving on the flagship segment
well its the first flagship by them
yes good to see actually after the original gt
@@DemeDemetre the realme gt isn't a flagship???
@@ous7947 no its the first flagship by realme
Love seeing realme getting recognized!

Now that I know that he changes the colours in the background to match the video, it's just another detail I love.

I went and watched your very first video, the one on optimizing your ZTE Blade, and then immediately watched this afterwards. The difference in energy took me back a bit. It is crazy to see the difference and growth of the channel in a relatively short time. AMAZING WORK!
Realme and Redmi r making so really great phones and for the price u really cant beat it i just wish ppl wernt so caught up n buying a name Cuz if more ppl nee about these phone i know they would make a killing n the US market
i still love my X2 pro, been using it for almost 2 years, has everything i need
Is the UI bad?
i just got rickrolled 4:31
That was smooth @ 5:25
Absolutely love your videos. & Waiting for release.
I want in like 2/3 years realme gets more recognized and have more local stores, phones and products
Been using Realme X2 for almost two years. Very happy with the phone!
4:12 Arun plays brawl stars 🤩🤩🤩
Hmm, how's the game
I love the way you smile when making your videos.
woah!! im amaze realme is getting with a phone flagship now adays. . im proud having my old r7pro 😍
Look forward to the innovation this company has to bring. As well as the ability to provide sustainable hopefully durable phones as well as less buggy software updates.
Yes
The os looks so good!
Enjoy your channel was wondering and this phone, I am considering weather it be my next phone, not the greatest but bloody good for the price. Brought my first realme phone a realme 6, dammm it a good phone. Hope realme keeps up what they doing.
Mrwhosetheboss damn this is guy is just love !
Been watching this guy's content for like 4 years now
Still owning my realme6 from your budget smartphones review. Love it, got the 8/128 one, still running like the first day (have it for almost 2 years).
There is qhd and flat screen! Wow this is amazing!
its hard to find something to complain about,wait this is the internet 🤣🤣Best line ever
Regarding the updates situation: Realme appears to already have been working on improving steadily. I own the Realme X50 Pro 5G and this is running on android patch 2021#12, still receiving regular updates close to 2 years after its initial launch in March 2020.
🆙Thanks for watching 🔝🔝message right away I have something for you 🆙🆙🆙.....
I just love realme! Using Their 'realme 8' its Cheap as hell and literally have everything i need! 8GB ram, 128 GB rom, 64MP cam, 5k battery in just 269USD 😍
Most professionally speaking of the product and the company itself, well presented.
One of a kind phone. I hope I had this on my 32nd bday on January 24, but. No budget. Soo. Patiently thankful for my 5-year china rom phone.... And to be more grateful that I am alive despite of this pandemic. Keep safe and sound idol Aron! Godbless!😘
0:17 why did this joke make me laugh so much? 🤣
"doesn't sound very real to me"
The editing, the reviewing of the phone, everything in this video and on this channel is just perfect 👌
I wanna say this Arun. You and MKBHD have the best video resolution quality in tech RUclips.
Even when I watch in 1080p I can barely notice a difference between 2160p using 300Mbps internet. Normally most tech channels only have 1080p max and many have 480p to 720p video at most and it really strains my eyes.
But your videos don't. I don't know if it's your equipment, how you upload it or what but I wanted to say thank you for setting the video quality bar high because it needs to be. My eyes thank you Arun continue being awesome 👌 👏
Advance wishes bro.. for 10m subscribers ❣
I discovered this channel 4 days ago and I can't stop watching your videos man. I just love everything about these. The passion for the tech you're talking about, the editing quality, and your ability to keep me engaged throughout 25 min videos that go like a breeze. You have earned a new sub and you can be sure I'll be telling my friends and college partners about this channel 👏👏👏
Go and watch the passion fruit video 😁😇
He's the best
I discovered this channel a month ago and am in the same situation as you !
Arun never fails 😉
I agree
If Realme starts making smaller phones, I'll definitely consider getting one. Was setting up a Realme phone for a family member around Christmas and was really impressed by it.
I remember asking my uncle who worked at IT the best Android phone years ago. he only said two brands; Xiaomi and realme. glad they're making waves now

what a brilliant phone for the beginning of the year, great presentation by arun, well pointed facts too. this will still be tough to beat for the other flagships. it surpassed the first one 8 gen1 from Motorola. i would love to have one myself, hey arun share those other phones you still have right there. 😁
no
This happens every year- all the Chinese phones bring basic features at the beginning of the year then when Samsung comes out w their S series they steal all the spotlight and actually provide a superior hardware and superior software experience. Then the iPhone does the same thing later on. Since the pixel 6 it’s safe to assume they also would follow on the footsteps
@@lifeisshrt7929 well you're right about that. More or less samsung has a reliability factor to them which is nice. These Chinese phone companies are kinda shady considering that the US banned Huawei. There might be something more happening in the background of these Chinese companies that we are yet to know about.
@@jupiteruniverse8683 I wasn’t really talking about that but yes that’s definitely a factor. Everybody should really be getting Samsung Apple or Google tbh

Been using the realme x2 pro master edition for 2 years. Seeing that GT 2 Pro on your hands made me feel that feeling again. The only thing holding me back from buying again is the fact that this phone still performs very well.
I am not updating it for a while is it working fine ?
Same here
X2 pro is love even after 2 years 🥲
Same here 😇12/256 gb.. still feels new and fast.. 🙏🏻may be next year i may swtich..
Same but no more software updates 😔😔
I mean yeah we'll get security updates but no Realme UI 3 for us, and this is kinda disappointing.
