Redmi just launched a new smartphone under the Note series, dubbed Redmi Note 10S. The mid-range offering packs quite the specs and scored pretty well on Geekbench. So did its rival, Realme.
Realme announced the much-awaited Narzo 30 recently, and by the looks of it, Redmi sure has a tough rival. We compared them, so you’ll know which one to choose.
Here is what you need to know.
Best DisplayÂ
Realme Narzo 30 sports a 6.5-inch FHD+ IPS LCD panel with a 90Hz refresh rate and a 2400×1080 pixel resolution.Â
Its rival, Redmi Note 10S, flaunts almost the same display specs. The only difference is that the phone packs an AMOLED display of 6.43-inch, which is clearly a winner here.Â
AMOLED panels feature better colour reproduction and viewing angles.
Hardware and Software Specs
Both smartphones houses an octa-core MediaTek Helio G95 SoC based on the 12nm process.Â
Narzo 30’s processor is paired with 6GB RAM and 128GB onboard storage (can be expanded to 256GB via microSD card), while Note 10S comes with a chipset coupled with 6GB RAM and 64GB onboard storage (up to 512GB via a microSD card).Â
The smartphones ship with Android 11OS out-of-the-box.
Battery Details
Redmi Note 10S packs a similar battery of 5,000mAh as Realme Narzo 30; the only difference is the fast charging support.Â
Narzo 30 features a 30W Dart Charge tech that can charge the handset up to 50 % in only 25 minutes.
On the other hand, the Redmi offering comes with a 33W fast charging support that can charge the device up to 54 % in 30 minutes.
If you’re interested in a fast-charging feature, Redmi wins big time.
Camera Skills
Coming to camera capabilities, there are clearly some significant differences here. For example, Redmi Note 10S sports a quad-camera setup including a 64MP primary camera with f/1.79 aperture, an 8MP 118 degrees ultra-wide sensor, a 2MP macro lens, and a 2MP depth sensor.Â
Realme Narzo 30 packs a triple-camera module with a 48MP primary camera with f/1.8 aperture, a 2MP B&W portrait camera, and a 2MP 4cm macro sensor with f/2.4 aperture.
Which One is Better?
The best smartphone for you should always be the one that suits your needs perfectly. However, if photography is essential for you, then the Redmi Note 10S is the best option. But, Realme Narzo 30 is also a promising offering, packing one of the best specs for a mid-range smartphone.
