realme continues to expand its TechLife ecosystem portfolio with the latest addition of realme Pad Series, the realme Pad X.
The realme Pad X is equipped with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 695 5G Processor, 10.95″ 2K FullView Display, and 7.1mm Ultra Slim Design, the device strives to give every Filipino a well-rounded digital experience.
UNBOXING
You will get the tablet, the manual, ejector pin, the USB type C cable and 33W power brick. The unit comes in a color of Glacial Blue but it is also available in Glowing Grey . The unit we have comes in 6GB of RAM and 128GB storage. Currently the unit is not preinstalled with screen protector and no free case available. Complementary accessories such as the realme Smart Keyboard and realme Pencil will also be available soon.
DESIGN
Looking at the device the realme Pad X is light and easy on the hands with its 7.1mm Ultra Slim Design so users can bring it anytime and anywhere. Using the tablet in landscape mode, there you will find the power button, two speakers grille, and microphone hole on the left side, while at the bottom is the sim card tray, which supports one nano sim card and SD card for storage expansion. Going to the right, you will find the two speakers grille, a USB type C port for charging and data transferring. At the top, there are the volume buttons with the secondary microphone hole. Flipping on the back you will find the 13MP AI camera and the beautiful looking matte finish design with sparkling effects that resist fingerprint smudges. The design is pretty good and ideal for the latest generation.
DISPLAY
The realme Pad X is 10.95″ with a 2K FullView Display, which has a screen-to-body ratio of 84.6% and a maximum brightness of 450 Nits with Anti-Blue Light technology, which will undoubtedly give customers an immersive visual experience. This allows users to watch the newest shows and movies in high definition.
The realme Pad X is greater for creative and artistic users, since its 1200 x 2000 pixel screen resolution, allows users to view every detail clearly and vividly.
AUDIO
Unfortunately, the Pad X doesn’t ship with a headphone jack but the device ships with a quad-speaker setup that includes Dolby Atmos Quad Speakers with Hi-Res Certification and Adaptive Surround Sound, enabling a full movie theater experience in the comfort of your own home. To no one’s surprise, the speakers sound terrific and pave the way for an enjoyable movie-watching experience.
CAMERA
The realme Pad X includes high-definition cameras with its 13MP Al Camera with an aperture of f/2.2. It can be digitally zoomed up to 6x. Photos quality and color reproductions are great but not the best. As for selfies, the pad x equips with an 8MP 105-degree Wide Front Camera. It can take wider images selfies, and video calls. The camera uses Limelight for a better view while keeping the subject in the center. Since you won’t be using the camera as your primary photography tool, I can say, I have no issues with it. It’s excellent to have a good camera that can record your moment when you need it.
SOFTWARE
The device comes pre-installed with Realme UI 3.0 based on Android 12, realme claims that the software has been modified to work well with the tablet. Themes customization, Split screen, Smart Sidebar, Flexible Windows, and Text Scanner are just a few of the elements that have been taken from the smartphone UI and made for the tablet, where the larger screen makes them all appear better. You can also use the Pad X as a mirroring device with other compatible Realme phones. It is my first time seeing realme UI 3.0 on the tablet. Overall, realme has done a good job in the software department.
PERFORMANCE
The realme Pad X is powered by the power-efficient Qualcomm Snapdragon 695 5G Processor. The tablet is more than capable of handling your daily needs. Throughout my review cycle, I generally watched videos and movies on YouTube and Netflix while also using the device to browse the web and read the latest news.
During gaming, I played Call of Duty mobile and Mobile Legends: Bang bang. I am surprised with the graphics quality, it can support higher graphic settings. No stutters, delays, or lags when playing. Animation, movements, and other effects are pleasing to the eye since it has a large display. It doesn’t get warm so easily when playing for more than an hour.
The realme Pad X also has a large RAM with up to 5GB Dynamic RAM expansion which allows for easy multi-tasking even when multiple apps are open in the background and can store multiple types of files and apps. For security, you will be opted to use the old password or PIN method when unlocking since the device lacks a fingerprint scanner.
It should come as no surprise that the tablet handled the tasks with ease. The tablet has an efficient multitasking performance so you can use it for entertainment, and gaming and at the same time be your productivity companion for school and work.
BATTERY
Complementing the battery-efficient processor is an 8,340mAh Battery. In fact, I haven’t had to charge the tablet in two days, and after nearly 7 hours of screen-on time. The tablet is providing you with the best standby time to watch your favorite shows, explore new hobbies, and get productive anytime. You also get a 33W Dart Charge charger inside the box which takes about 3 hours to completely juice up the tablet.
FINAL
The Realme Pad X has several positive features, and with a starting price of 15,999 PHP, it will definitely draw many customers’ attention. Currently, realme is offering discounted prices for this tablet on their official e-commerce stores. If you need a tablet that can make the most of your task and entertainment with respectable performance, then the realme Pad X is a decent option to buy.
