2My previous phone was Redmi Note 11. It worked for 4 years and did what I wanted it to. Fast and snappy. The screen went bad so I bought a Realme 14x 5g.

The ZuPick verdict
3.6out of 5
ConsiderBest at battery, weakest at camera.
The Realme 14x 5G stands out for battery life, charging speed and durability, while keeping everyday performance comfortably usable. Its weaker display sharpness and modest cameras stop it from being an easy top pick, but it still makes sense for buyers who care more about endurance than multimedia quality.
Based on specs, expert reviews and owner discussions.Performance3.8
It scores about 422,000 on AnTuTu, which puts it in the solid everyday range for this price. 6 GB RAM, UFS 2.2 storage and 5G support make it well suited to regular apps, multitasking and casual gaming.Camera2.9
The 50 MP main camera with f/1.8 aperture and autofocus is good enough for simple daylight photos, but this is still a fairly basic camera package overall. Video tops out at 1080p at 30 fps, and the 8 MP front camera is only modest.Display3.0
The 120Hz refresh rate keeps the phone feeling smooth, but the 720x1604 LCD panel is a clear step down from sharper Full HD options. Brightness of 625 nits is decent indoors and acceptable outside, though not a standout.Battery4.6
This is one of the phone’s biggest strengths. The 6000 mAh battery and 45W charging already look strong on paper, and the tested 22h 41m endurance points to excellent real-world stamina.Value3.0
It gets some important things right, especially battery life, charging and durability. Even so, the HD+ display and basic cameras make the value feel more balanced than exceptional at ₹16,999.Price history

Pros & cons
What’s good
Excellent battery life
The 6000 mAh battery is a real strength, and the tested 22h 41m endurance is far better than what many rivals manage. It is built to last through heavy days with room to spare.
Fast 45W charging
45W charging is among the quicker options in this price range. It cuts down waiting time and makes the big battery easier to live with.
Smooth 120Hz display
The 120Hz screen makes scrolling, app switching and general navigation feel fluid. Day-to-day use feels more responsive than on basic 60Hz phones.
Reliable everyday performance
It scores about 422,000 on AnTuTu, which is enough for daily apps, streaming and casual gaming without much trouble. 5G support also keeps it current for the next few years.
Strong durability rating
IP68 and IP69 protection is rare at this price. It adds peace of mind if you use your phone outdoors or in rougher conditions.
What’s not
HD+ screen only
The 720x1604 display is noticeably less sharp than Full HD rivals in this price range. Text and video do not look as crisp as they should at ₹16,999.
Basic camera setup
The 50 MP main camera is fine for daylight shots, but 1080p at 30 fps and the lack of stabilisation limit it for low light and video. The 8 MP selfie camera is also fairly modest.
Average brightness outdoors
Peak brightness of 625 nits is usable, but it is not especially strong for harsh sunlight. Outdoor visibility is serviceable rather than impressive.

2Firstly I hate how the torch works in Realme. The torch button is a V or volume down when screen is off? Which idiot thought of this why hasn't this been rectified.

2The fingerprint scanner lags randomly. It would be working fine one moment, but a minute later it would refuse to acknowledge that I am trying to open my phone.

2The device lags randomly. I don't even game. I'll be using WhatsApp or Chrome and the back or switch button would become unresponsive for a few seconds.

2I spent 15 thousand INR on this piece of crap.

1I bought the 14x version for my 11 year old nephew, price € 139 8 / 12 GB 256 GB internal memory, dual sim and memory expansion slot, updated to UI 6, a beautiful smartphone that lacks nothing and has nothing to envy from higher class ones.

Omg yes, your actually correct. But, I still get 5 hrs of screen time max on this phone in air conditioned surroundings and light gaming and browsing
