One of the best entry level phone on the market right, I hear people complaining but for that price can't expect midrange spec on a phone this cheap. I have been using it for almost a year now and I have zero complains. I play most of the demanding games flawlessly. Camera is average good if you in proper lighting. I didn't believe it was IP54 rating until I accidentally dropped it in a bucket of water and it is still fully operating no problem whatsoever. The only drawback is the battery if you are connected to a WiFi or using too much data definitely will drain faster. The speaker is not loud enough sometimes I don't hear it ring when they call but for day to day use I'm satisfied with it. As a phone lover I honestly can say it beats a lot of its competitors out there

Piece of junk. Keeps turning on Bluetooth and Do Not Disturb making me miss calls. Freezes for minutes at a time. Don't buy this phone,!

Rooting, I don't recommend actually because you will lose access to banking apps and local gov. E-services unless this is your second device not main daily use.
Just little note, GSI is not a custom Rom

I upgraded my phone to android 15 using GSI rom, Super Android clean UI is way better than bloated RealmeUI.
Everything working except 4G LTE problem (when enabled you can't recieve calls), I just switch to 3g a lot slower but no problem with whatsapp and other texting apps also saves my data plan (^_^) if any time want faster web just switch back to LTE.
So far so good, just follow instructions in the video carefully

also he has excellent tutorial (translate easily to english as I did because I couldn't understand the video)

BTW you can also root the phone but I don't recommend as you will lose access to most banking/gov apps
