What customers don't like about realme GT Neo6 SE (16GB + 512GB)

  • The camera, while good for its price, is considered a step down compared to other aspects of the phone and struggles in low light, particularly the front camera.
  • The advertised peak brightness of 6000 nits is not achieved in real-world full-screen use, dropping significantly in typical scenarios.
  • Some users received versions that did not include a charger in the box (depending on the region), which was a point of frustration.
  • Lack of a 3.5mm headphone jack and absence of Power Delivery support.
  • Potential region lock limitations on certain versions (e.g., restricted phone calls in some regions).
  • Some complaints about bloatware/ads in the Realme UI.
  • Curved display may not appeal to all users (some prefer flat screens).

Verdict

The Realme GT Neo6 SE (16GB + 512GB) is a powerful mid-range smartphone featuring the Qualcomm Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3 processor and a massive 5500mAh battery with 100W wired fast charging, capable of reaching 50% charge in just 12 minutes. Key pros include its stunning 6.78-inch 1.5K LTPO AMOLED display with an ultra-high 6000 nits peak local brightness and 120Hz refresh rate, a capable 50MP main camera with OIS, generous LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 4.0 storage, and an IP65 water/dust resistance rating. Potential cons involve its plastic build, the absence of a 3.5mm headphone jack or microSD card slot, and the possibility of some pre-installed bloatware depending on the regional software version.
