The Narzo 50 series by Realme contains a huge amount of devices: they are so many that it is impossible to include all of them in a single comparison. So we chose three of them, the oldest ones and the most similar to each other, in order to tell you the differences between their specifications. We excluded four models which we will maybe include in other comparisons. Here you can find a comparison between the specifications of the vanilla Realme Narzo 50, the Realme Narzo 50A, and the Realme Narzo 50i. Note that in the same series there are also the Realme Narzo 50 5G, the Realme Narzo 50A Prime, and the Realme Narzo 50i Prime, but they are totally different devices from the ones listed above.

Realme Narzo 50 vs Realme Narzo 50A vs Realme Narzo 50i

Design

If you are looking for the most modern design, then you should opt for the vanilla Realme Narzo 50. It is the only one with a punch-hole display and the punch hole is placed in the upper left corner: the Realme Narzo 50A and the Realme Narzo 50i come with waterdrop notches and they are less impressive not only because of that but even because they are thicker phones. Further, you should note that the rear design of the vanilla version looks more attractive, with an original texture and a more minimalistic camera module including three sensors and a LED flash. But there is an important thing to say about the Realme Narzo 50i: it is splash resistant, even though it does not provide any IP certification.

Display

The most advanced phone in terms of the display is again the vanilla Realme Narzo 50. Its IPS LCD panel with a diagonal of 6.6 inches is able to show a higher level of detail because it supports the Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2412 pixels, while the two internal rivals have a lower HD+ resolution of 720 x 1600 pixels. Further, the vanilla version has a higher 90 Hz refresh rate instead of a standard 60 Hz refresh rate. We are not talking about a high-end panel, it is still an affordable component, but it is similar to the ones found on several mid-rangers. In each case, the fingerprint reader is side-mounted on the power key, all of these phones feature mono speakers and they have 3.5 mm audio jacks.

Hardware/Software

The Realme Narzo 50 is the most powerful phone of the trio because it is powered by the Helio G96: an octa-core mobile platform by Mediatek built at 12 nm with a max frequency of 2.05 GHz, composed of two Cortex A76 CPUs, six Cortex A55 CPUs, and a Mali G57 MC2 GPU. The SoC is paired with up to 6 GB of RAM and up to 128 GB of UFS 2.1 internal storage which you can furtherly expand through a micro SD dedicated slot. The silver medal goes to the Realme Narzo 50A with an octa-core Mediatek Helio G85 chipset running at 2 GHz, 4 GB of RAM, and up to 128 GB of storage.

Camera

The Realme Narzo 50 and the Realme Narzo 50A have the same cameras and they are way better than the Realme Narzo 50i. They sport a 50 MP main sensor and a pair of 2 MP cameras for macros and depth. The Narzo 50i has just one single 8 MP camera on the rear side and an inferior 5 MP selfie snapper, so it has no way to compete with its opponents. However, keep in mind that the other two are still entry-level camera phones, so you should not expect a high photo quality but just a sufficient one.

Battery

The Realme Narzo 50A wins the battery life comparison because it sports a huge battery with a capacity of 6000 mAh. The Realme Narzo 50 and the Realme Narzo 50i have just 5000 mAh, but the vanilla version is the only one with 33W fast charging as the 50A comes with 18W fast charging and the 50i does not support fast charging at all.

Realme Narzo 50 vs Realme Narzo 50A vs Realme Narzo 50i: Price

The Realme Narzo 50 is priced at Rs. 12,999 / $163 in India, while you need Rs. 11,499 / $144 to purchase the Realme Narzo 50A. Realme Narzo 50i price in India starts from Rs. 7,499 / $94. Now that you know all the differences, which one would you pick after considering their prices?

The post Realme Narzo 50 vs Realme Narzo 50A vs Realme Narzo 50i: Specs Comparison appeared first on Gizmochina.

A lot of manufacturers have adopted a 6-month refresh cycle for several of their mid-range phones. The reduced period between devices sometimes results in these phones sharing similar specs. An example is the upcoming Narzo 50A smartphone whose chipset was revealed by a company executive today.

We already know the Narzo 50A is on the way seeing as it has received certifications at different agencies in the last few weeks. We also know what it will look like thanks to a press render leak in late August. Now, Realme is taking control of the narrative and has disclosed the chipset that will power the new smartphone.

The name of the processor was revealed in a tweet by Francis Wong, the CMO of Realme India & Europe. According to him, the Narzo 50A will be powered by the MediaTek Helio G85 processor, the same chipset that is inside the Narzo 30A.

We choose MediaTek Helio G85 processor with 1GHz GPU & HyperEngine enhancements for all young players with our upcoming #realmeNarzo50A. Being an optimized & reliable processor I'm sure it will offer the young players the best experience. #narzo50series incoming!

— Francis Wong (@FrancisRealme) September 15, 2021

The Helio G85 was announced in April 2020 and the 12nm octa-core processor has two Cortex-A75 cores clocked at 2.0GHz and six Cortex-A55 cores clocked at 1.8GHz. It also has a Mali G52 MC2 GPU clocked at 1GHz. The processor is a favorite of many manufacturers and can be found in mid-range phones from Redmi, Tecno, Infinix, Samsung, and Micromax.

For those disappointed in the news that the Narzo 50A will retain the same sensor, there are other differences expected. For example, the leaked render already revealed that the phone will have three rear cameras and will have a redesigned back panel. There most likely will be other differences which we may find out before the launch event.

Last week, the Realme Narzo 50A was spotted certification sites such as the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) and Thailand’s National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission (NBTC). A new report (via. Pricebaba) states that the smartphone has also bagged approval from the Eurasian Economic Commission (EEC). These certifications are a good hint the Narzo 50A will break cover soon in multiple markets.

It can be said based on recent reports that the EEC certified RMX3430 smartphone may debut in the European markets with the Narzo 50A moniker. Unfortunately, none of the certification listings have revealed the major specs of the device. The NBTC listing only revealed that it is a 4G LTE phone.

A recent leak revealed that the Narzo 50A will be arriving in India in two variant such as 4 GB RAM + 64 GB storage and 4 GB RAM + 128 GB storage. It is expected to arrive in colors like Oxygen Green and Oxygen Blue.

A leaked render of the Narzo 50A that appeared recently revealed that it will be sporting a teardrop notch display and a side-facing fingerprint scanner. The uniquely designed rear shell of the device features a triple camera unit and a fingerprint scanner. It is speculated that it has a front camera of 8-megapixel and a 13-megapixel primary camera on the back. It is likely that Realme may announce the Narzo 50 series of smartphones at some point in September.

Almost six months after the launch of the Narzo 30A, realme is set to launch its successor. If you were expecting it to be called the Narzo 40A, that won’t be the case as the manufacturer is going with Narzo 50A. Ahead of its release, an official render has leaked and it gives us an early look at the smartphone.

The source of the image is the popular leaker, Steve Hemmerstoffer a.k.a Onleaks, and he has partnered with the Indian blog, 91 Mobiles. The photo shows the phone will retain the same front design as the Narzo 30A. So you get a display with a waterdrop notch and a thick bottom bezel. There is also a slit above the screen for the earpiece.

The back of the phone is where the design changes are. First, there are now three rear cameras, one more than you have on its predecessor. The three sensors and LED flash are arranged in a matrix but the camera housing is now way bigger as it extends further down and to the side to include the fingerprint scanner. It gives the phone a unique look but one that everyone may not be comfortable with.

Realme is keeping the dual-patterned design of the Narzo 30A but with a twist. The ridged pattern now extends vertically from the bottom of the huge camera housing while the smoother portion is on the right. The Narzo 50A retains the headphone jack as well as a USB-C port for charging. There is a four-hole speaker grille too. However, rather than two microphone holes near the audio jack, there is only one now. The volume rocker and power button remain on the right while the SIM tray is on the left.

The overall design is actually pretty interesting and should make for good conversation. While not everyone will like it as design is usually subjective, one can appreciate Realme’s efforts to be different.

Earlier this year, Realme unveiled the Narzo 30A, Narzo 30, Narzo 30 5G, and Narzo 30 Pro 5G in multiple markets. Fresh information reveals that the Narzo 30 lineup will be replaced by Narzo 50 series as a handset named Narzo 50A 4G has been certified in India and Thailand.

A Realme smartphone with RMX3430 has been approved by India’s Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) and Thailand’s National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission (NBTC). While the former does not reveal anything, the latter confirms that it is a 4G LTE phone that will debut in the market as Realme Narzo 50A 4G. According to tipster Mukul Sharma, it will be available in variants like 4 GB RAM + 64 GB storage and 4 GB RAM + 128 GB storage. He added that the device will be available in colors like Oxygen Blue and Oxygen Green.

So, what happened to the Realme Narzo 40 series? Realme is known for skipping the number ‘4’ in the names of its devices. To recollect, the company did not launch handsets with names like Realme 4 or Realme X4 / X40. The reason behind it is that many of the Chinese brands consider the number ‘4’ as a bad omen in the country. Hence, it appears that the Narzo 30 series will be succeeded by the Narzo 50 lineup.

At present, it is too early to speculate on the specs of the Narzo 50 lineup, which may include Narzo 50A, Narzo 50, and Narzo 50 Pro. Probably, the latter two may arrive in 4G and 5G variants in the market.

Last year, the Narzo 20A, Narzo 20, and Narzo 20 Pro were announced in September. Probably, the company could be planning to launch the next generation Narzo phones by the same month this year.
