Pros and Cons of  Realme C17

Pros

• Super Nightscape mode with AI quad-camera
• Corning glass safety
• Realme weather-sealed ports and  loudspeaker.

Cons

• Screen resolution 720p
• without wireless charging
• Not suitable for low-light photography.
• There is only one internal storage option.

Design and Cons

The Realme C17 keeps the beautiful c-series design and looks great from the outside. The camera plate is close to the fingerprint reader and is housed in a plastic case that retains the vivid gradient effect.

There is a broad chin at the bottom of the screen, in addition to fine bezels on the sides. On that note, you will receive an IPS LCD-based 6.5-inch HD+ screen with a refresh rate of 90Hz and a resolution of only 720p. There are also other features, like as gorilla glass and weather-sealed ports, that are included on the Realme C17.

Memory

The internal configuration appears to feature the basic level of Snapdragon 460 chipset on its Adreno 610 graphics card. With this design, an octa-core processor is divided into two halves, with the 1.8 GHz cores providing behind-the-scenes power in sophisticated processing and the 1.6 GHz core set powering everyday workloads. Android 10 was installed on top of the Realme UI skin.

The 128GB storage has 6GB of RAM and the UFS 2.1 memory type, which significantly improves the performance of reading and writing data. Furthermore, you can expand the storage capacity of your phone using a dedicated microSD option.

Camera

The 8 MP selfie camera was positioned on the front panel, and the quad-camera setup was placed on the back panel. A 13 MP lens serves as the main sensor at the back, while an ultra-wide 8 MP lens is housed on the rectangular camera plate, along with a depth lens of 2MP and a macro lens of 2MP. Because this phone has entry-level specs, this configuration is adequate.

Battery

The Realme C17 phone includes an 18W fast charger for the massive Li-Po 5000 mAh battery and is the first in the C series to include a Type-C 2.0 charging connection. It’s great that Realme tries to introduce new features on a regular basis. On the plus side, the battery can last for more than two days and can be charged in an hour or two.

In terms of the other features, Realme provides a normal layer sensor, but with a better communication design that makes this phone useful. It also contains a 3.5mm jack port and a decent speaker for improved sound quality.
