      This specsheet seems like a nice balance of features for its price. I wonder how good the 680 is tho and how efficient it is.

        here you go take this as an example which has an amoled and g88
        Apart from this they also have their hot 11 and zero phone series with strong batteries and chips with tecno being the same as Infinix as always.

        In the the actual issue with them both really imo is their software and some Shadiness otherwise they can be a really good company on low budget.

          And how much do tecno price those G88 phones? Usual more than $200, and most of them has hd display. If i want Battery life like Tecno there is Redmi 9 which cost around $100 to $120.

            Hemedans, 18 Jan 2022No Tecno or infinix is on same level as realme Xi series (n... moreDidn't the realme 6i launch with a helio g80? and The indian one was a different variant all together which was launched only in some places. Moreover, Infinix and Tecno have greatly changed now and Now provide chips like the Helio g88 in their budget phones with a very good battery life.
            I prefer realme over infinix or Tecno But you need to get your facts correct my dude

              bulbulito.bayagbag, 18 Jan 2022Actually, based on my experience, Realme has better wifi si... moreMy Realme 6's wifi connectivity that was already quite poor out of the box. Subsequent updates managed to make the wifi a bit more stable but in turn made the phone very hot while using wifi. I still can't stray too far from a wifi router though, unlike my other phones that can still maintain connection even upstairs.

              The mobile reception was pretty crappy in my area too, with my other phones getting full bars while the Realme 6 only around 3/4 sometimes dropping to just 1/2 bars. Some other Realme users I asked have same problems and some like you praised Realme for having no issue. My conclusion is the parts used in Realme phones are from different suppliers. You are lucky if you got the good ones, while some unlucky like me get the bad ones.

              And complaining about the issues at Realme service center is pretty much useless in my experience. These are what they did for me:
              1) Asked me to wait for software update
              2) Asked me to leave the phone with them for 1 week where they performed diagnostics and factory reset which didn't rectify anything.

                    It's better to go for Redmi Note 10 for the same price.
                    Redmi Note 10 (Specs):
                    ~Amoled display (6.43")
                    ~Snapdragon 678
                    ~33W fast charging.
                    ~Dual speaker.
                    ~48MP camera (Sony IMX 582).
                    ~5000mAh battery.
                    ~IR blaster.
                    Price: (4GB+64GB-₹14K) (6GB+128GB-₹15.5K).

                      AnonD-1034280, 18 Jan 2022A76 is twice as efficient as A73. Meaning, A76 can do twice... moreThe correct statement is A76 is better in perfomance per watt, you get more perfomance while consume less power.

                      But we are talking about battery life alone, 10nm sd 835 had insane battery life, so is sd 660/665/662, then this sd 680 was manufacture by using 6nm. Wait for reviews.

                      Some people any big core is enough for day to day activities and they will benefit more from extra battery life.

                        Anonymous, 18 Jan 2022If you want battery life then infinix, techno , or realme&#... moreNo Tecno or infinix is on same level as realme Xi series (not all of them). Realme 6i had record breaking battery life in gsmarena test while using decent soc like G70 and. 8i with G96.

                        Some Tecno/Infinix has good battery life but they are either overpriced or use useless soc like p22.

                        And Samsung has plenty of phone with Excellent battery life like M51, M52, A42 etc.

                            Anonymous, 18 Jan 2022Playing second fiddle* Yea good luck buying a Xiaomi/Redmi... moreLmao you are talking as if Realme doesn't launch a new phone every few weeks. You forgot that Realme even launched a new model with exact same specs a few months after the first one (GT Neo and GT Neo2T, ring any bell?).

                            The Redmi Note 10 was launched in March 2021 and is already 10 months old now. Also, I feel the need to wish you good luck with your Realme i models that will only get 1 Android update.

                                        After a long time phone with decent specs and price, I am buying it.
