Whtzup up guyz! In this Video letz Unbox and
have a look at the latest in the Realme series,
the Realme U1 and checkout itz Glass Resistance
& Structural Strength
The Realme U1 is the first Device in the World
to introduce the Mediatek 2.11GHz MT6771,
otherwise known as the P70, which is quite
a powerful Midrange processor! Comparatively
it has a bit more power than the Snapdragon
660 found in devices like the Xiaomi Mi A2
and also scores higher on AnTuTu! On Unboxing
the phone, the first thing you notice is the
Striking Glossy looking back! Even though
it is Plastic, it has been given a Glass-finish
and reflects light in an very attractive way.
So looks wise it is almost as good as the
Huawei Honor 8x, the most Beautiful Budget
Device of 2018! But the Realme U1 does have
that Dew Drop which in my Opinion is the Best
implementation of the Notch, first seen on
the already tested Realme 2 Pro!
On initial inspection, the polycarbonate body
does seem to be tough since in my usual Trial
Bend, there wasn't much of flex. But how will
it perform in the actual Bend Test is yet
to be seen!
On the software side of things, itz Custom
User Interface may not be everyone's favourite
but ColorOS does have some Valuable and nifty
little features! Performance is pretty awesome
for this budget price, mostly smooth and lag-free
thanks largely to the Mediatek P70 processor!
And coupled with the Mali-G72 GPU, there were
no issues faced while heavy Gaming at High
Graphic Settings!
Compared to
the competition, the Picture Quality may not
be the Best at this price range but you can
get some ok to above average shots. With the
Super vivid Mode turned off the colours are
closer to natural but turning it ON not only
makes it look Unnatural but also puts on a
nice Vignette effect on the image! So, its
best to use it sparingly and only in Dull
looking scenes like in overcast conditions!
The 2x Zoom function works well but the images
do look pixelated on using it! The Dynamic
Range and exposure may get pretty off with
the bright areas getting overblown and lacking
detail in the shadows. The blur levels are
somewhat exaggerated in the Portrait Mode
lacking that gradient blur like in the Redmi
Note 6 Pro. But the Selfie Camera on the other
hand performs much better in Clarity and Detail
Levels compared to the rear camera!
This pre-applied screen protector in the Realme
Series is mainly used to cover up poor quality
glass which are very prone to scratches compared
to Higher Quality Glasses. So, has the Glass
Protection provided on the Realme U1 been
improved or not, we'll soon find-out in the
Scratch Test!
Continuing with the Test, letz find-out the
Quality of this Glass Protection you are paying
for by rubbing it with common items found
in pockets like Keyz and Coins and then with
a Heavy Duty Box Cutter! Devices which have
High Quality Corning Glasses may get a few
faint marks from the key or coins but always
do survive the Blade. But in case of poor
quality glasses provided on phones like the
Vivo V9 Pro, Y81, Samsung Galaxy J6 2018 and
the Realme series, the blade causes Ugly scuff
marks on the Glass. So, letz see if the Realme
U1 is able to survive the Blade abuse or not?
As it turns out and proven time & again, the
pre-applied screen protector is simply a cost
cutting measure as usual, to cover up Poor
Quality Glass Protection which is very prone
to Scratches!
Now moving onto fun Stuff with Value, the
Bend Test, will the Realme U1 be able to survive
in tight pockets or other Accidental High
Pressure situations?
Even though the Structure of Realme U1 felt
a bit stronger compared to previous models
like the Realme 2 Pro, there was a kink developed
near the power keys during the Bend which
was kind of a first in the Realme Series.
But besides that the Realme U1 does survive
the Bend Test!
