DESIGN

The realme 10 comes in two color designs, Clash White and Rush Black. Ours came in the Clash White variant, and, boy, does it look good.

The Clash White is more of a combination of three colors, orange yellow, blue, and a bit of violet in the middle it resembles a rainbow with the color seamlessly shifting to another.

The realme 10's display is a 6.4-inch FHD+ (1080 x 2400) super AMOLED. It has a 90Hz refresh rate and a 180Hz touch sampling. It's also great to know that the display is Corning Gorilla Glass 5 giving you peace of mind in case you dropped it. While most phones are adopting the 120Hz refresh rate, 90Hz is still good enough.

The realme 10 looks similar to the earlier realme 9 smartphone. The only difference is the camera setup on the 10, which sports only a rear dual-camera setup instead of the 9's triple. Like the realme 9, the realme 10's selfie camera is located at the upper left corner of the display to enable a more immersive gaming experience.

On the phone's left is the sim-card tray and microSD slot (expandable up to 1TB). On the right are the volume keys, and the power button that doubles as the fingerprint reader. At the top of the smartphone is just the microphone hole. At the bottom are the 3.5mm headphone jack, the USB-C charging port, another mic hole, and the single downward-firing speaker.
