Realme Narzo 50A Prime boasts a quality build with a premium-looking glass-like finish. The 6.6-inch IPS LCD offers Full HD+ resolution and 180Hz touch sampling rate. While it may not reach exceptional levels of display quality, it delivers a very satisfactory experience with its colors and brightness levels, ensuring an enjoyable viewing experience.

Equipped with the UNISOC T612 processor, 4GB of RAM, and 64GB/128GB of UFS 2.2 storage, the Narzo 50A Prime handles everyday tasks and casual gaming smoothly. However, it may struggle with intensive multitasking or demanding games. The phone runs on Android 11 with Realme UI 2.0, offering a user-friendly interface.

The device features a triple-camera setup with a 50MP primary sensor that captures quality photos in daylight. Low-light performance is also satisfactory but not exceptional. Unfortunately, the macro camera disappoints with its low quality and blurry images, which is a bit of a letdown in this section.

With a large 5000mAh battery, the Narzo 50A Prime stands out in the battery life, easily lasting a day with moderate usage. It supports 18W fast charging. However, the charger is not included in the box, and you have to purchase it separately.

Overall, the Realme Narzo 50A Prime is a good option for those who want a budget smartphone with a good display and battery life. However, it has some compromises, such as a poor macro camera, no charger in the box, and limited video recording options. If these factors align with your needs, this phone is a worthy choice in this budget.
