Realme X2 review: A midrange smartphone that has something for everyone


Chinese smartphone brand Realme made strides in several new areas last year. From foraying into the premium midrange segment to introducing true wireless earphones, the young and ambitious OPPO spin-off did not hesitate to explore and experiment. At the same time, it continued to focus on its midrange smartphone portfolio, considered its area of strength. A recent addition to this portfolio is the Realme X2, the plain-vanilla edition of its premium Realme X2 Pro.


Business Standard tried the Realme X2 to see how it fared on key parameters. Here is what we found in our review:


Design
The Realme X2 takes its design inspiration from the Pro edition in more ways than one. However, you cannot overlook how drastically similar it looks to the Realme XT as well. The phone has a glass construction, with a Gorilla Glass 5 protection on the front and back, and a polycarbonate chassis that looks metallic. Though the phone’s back is resilient to scratches, its glass cover is prone to smudges and fingerprints. Thankfully, the phone comes bundled with a translucent TPU cover that protects its back and also levels the phone’s otherwise protruding rear camera module, which makes it uneven on flat surfaces.
