Realme has just launched a new model that promises not only durability but also affordability. Realme Narzo N61 is the latest addition to its popular and budget-friendly series Narzo N63. This model focuses on providing users with rugged construction and essential features so that they get a reliable device without spending too much money on it.
Key Features of the Realme Narzo N61
Rugged Design and Build Quality
What makes the Realme Narzo N61 different from entry-level smartphones is its die-cast aluminum chassis with an internal metal frame. The design also hosts a card slot and USB port seals, further adding to the rating, which is IP54 for resistance to dust and water. In addition, it has also passed the TÜV Rheinland High Reliability Certification.
Display and Touchscreen Technology
The Narzo N61 comes with a 6.74-inch LCD display capable of producing HD+ resolution with a 90Hz refresh rate that brings fluidity in motion graphic perception. With a peak brightness of 560 nits, clear visibility is guaranteed under direct sunlight. The phone also features wet-finger operation on the touchscreen, so users will be able to use the phone while it’s raining. The “Mini Capsule 2.0” UI by Realme guarantees crucial information is shown at the top of the screen for user productivity.
Camera Specifications
- Rear Camera: The phone comes with a 32 MP rear camera that can capture 1080p video.
- Front Camera: There is a 5 MP front camera nestled in the notch at the very top of the screen. It is less sophisticated compared to the Narzo N63 model, equipped with an 8 MP front camera and a 50 MP rear camera.
Performance and Storage Options
The Narzo N61 is powered by the Unisoc T612 chipset, which houses two Cortex-A75 cores and six Cortex-A55 cores, along with a Mali-G57 GPU. There are two user memory configurations:
- 4 GB RAM / 64 GB Storage
- 6 GB RAM / 128 GB Storage
It supports expanded storage through a hybrid SIM slot that will accommodate a microSD card or an extra SIM card.
Battery Life and Charging
The Realme Narzo N61 comes with a 5,000 mAh battery that still holds 80% of its original charge even after 1,000 charge cycles. That is on a USB-C port with a 10W power delivery, much slower than the 45W fast charging in the Narzo N63.
Connectivity and Design
The Narzo N61 has 4G connectivity, Wi-Fi 5 (AC), and Bluetooth 5.0 (LDAC). It also comes with a 3.5 mm headphone jack, which already says a lot on the side of value. The phone is just 7.84 mm thick and weighs 187 grams, making it both slim and lightweight.
Pricing and Availability
The Realme Narzo N61 is currently up for pre-booking on the online store in India at an introductory price of ₹7,500 for the 4/64 GB model, with a ₹500 discount being applicable to that. The 6/128 GB version will be available for ₹8,500 without a discount. The official sale will start on the 6th of August and the phone is offered in two colors: Voyage Blue and Marble Black.
Conclusion
The Realme Narzo N61 has a robust design, and durable construction, and appeals to someone with an eye for quality at a budget-friendly deal. This die-cast aluminum-built smartphone with pragmatic functionalities stands out as the reliable option in the segment.
