Editorial report

Realme V5 5G 8 GB / 128 GB / China technical sheet

The Realme V5 5G suits buyers looking for 5G and strong battery specifications, provided a slightly above-average weight is acceptable: at 194 g, it is heavier than average for phones of its time. This configuration pairs 6 GB of RAM with 128 GB of storage; the phone is also sold with 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage. Storage is expandable, and it supports two Nano-SIM cards.

Its 6.5-inch IPS LCD display has a resolution of 1080 × 2400 px, pixel density of 405 ppi and a 90 Hz refresh rate. The pixel density is higher than that of most phones of its time, while 90 Hz is average. A MediaTek Dimensity 720 works with the 6 GB of RAM, and its AnTuTu v8 result of 330,590 is higher than that of most phones from around the same time.

The 48 MP rear main camera records 4K video at 30 fps, and an 8 MP ultrawide camera is also included. Overall, the camera is above average among phones launched around the same time. Its 5,000 mAh battery and 30 W fast charging are better than those of most phones of its time, and the battery package is among the best. Connectivity includes 5G, Wi-Fi 5, Bluetooth 5.0 and USB-C. With a NeoScore of 5.5, the Realme V5 5G makes sense for buyers who prioritize battery capacity, 5G and a sharp display, and can live with a heavier-than-average build.
