The Realme 15 was launched on July 24, succeeding the Realme 13, which was released on August 29. It offers several improvements, including UFS 3.1 storage and a larger battery.
Design
The Realme 15 features a new and stylish design language when you compare it to the Realme 13’s design, which was similar to the previous generations, too, like the circular camera design, and now this phone features a square camera layout, which feels more premium by its looks, and it’s 7.6 mm thin for a phone packing a 7000 mAh battery and weighs around 189 grams, which is decent for a phone that is packing a 7000 mAh battery, and the phone also features IP69 water and dust resistance, and the phone has armor shell protection for protection against drops and bends.
Display
The Realme 15 features a 6.8-inch Hyperglow 4D+ curved display with a 144 Hz refresh rate, and it has a massive screen ratio of 94.1%, and it features HDR10+ support and a low bezel rate with just 1.48 mm bezels, and the phone also features 4608 Hz PWM dimming, so you won’t feel any eye strain while using the phone in low-light areas.
The phone has a maximum brightness of 6500 nits, which only appears on one pixel, and that too while watching HDR content, and 1800 nits of HBM, which is the max brightness you will see on the phone, and the phone has a touch sampling rate of 240 Hz and an instantaneous touch sampling rate of 2500 Hz.
Performance
The Realme 15 features a Dimensity 7300+ chipset, which has a decent Antutu score of 740k, decent because of the pricing again, which we’ll discuss later, and the phone also has an AI gaming coach, which helps, and AI ultra touch control, which helps in faster response and pinpoint accuracy for the esports gamers out there, and support for GT Boost, which helps us adjust the refresh rate and touch response time, and the phone also features a massive 7000 mm² airflow VC, and it helps sustain the level of performance after long gaming sessions and helps reduce temperatures by 20 degrees on the CPU and 3.4 degrees lower gaming temperature and UFS 3.1 .
Camera
The Realme 15 features an IMX 882 50MP sensor as the main camera and an 8MP ultra-wide camera for those wide shots, and this can record videos at 4k 30fps, and a depth camera as the third camera, and it also features a 50MP selfie camera, so you can record videos at 4k 30fps on both the front and back cameras, which looks good, and AI Party with intelligent low-light lighting helps take pictures in low light, and third-party AI algorithms help with AI skin tone restoration and custom party watermarks that help you stand out, and AI Edit Mode Genie brings the best editing to the photos, and AI Snap Mode helps capture the moment in high resolution.
Battery
The Realme 15 features a 7000 mAh Titan battery, which can last you for around 4.5 h for video recording, 23 h of YouTube, and 10 h of gaming data, according to Realme, and for charging, it comes with 80 W SuperVOOC, which takes 25 m to charge 50% of the battery and 61 minutes to charge fully. Additionally, the battery chip helps the battery last longer and helps maintain the temperature.
OS
The Realme 15 runs on Realme UI 6, based on Android 15, which features a new icon design, wallpaper depth and separation of the notification and control center. Since this is a Realme number series phone, the phone will receive two major updates and four years of security updates.
Pricing
The Realme 15 is priced at 25999 for the 8+128 model, 27999 for the 8+256 model, and 30999 for the 12+256 model. The phone is available with an Rs 1500 instant discount, or you can opt for an Rs 2000 discount on credit card EMI. This offer is limited to the 8+128 variant. The prices after the discounts would be 24500 for the 8+128, 26500 for the 8+256 variant, and 29500 for the 12+256 variant.
Verdict
The verdict for the Realme 15 is that the pricing of the phone is quite high; 24.5k for 7300 isn’t good, and the camera setup isn’t that good either. For better performance, you have options like the Nord CE 5, and for photography, the Nothing Phone 3a is a great choice. However, the price of 24.5k for the 7300 is a poor decision. Hopefully, Realme recognizes the need for improvement with the Realme 16, as the pricing is not competitive.
