2-minute Review [Positives]	Great design, similar to the Realme 5 - like all Realme phones recently, the Realme 5s has both a good build quality, and striking looks (with a crystal back polycarbonate design) The front is modern and sharp too with a 6.5-inch display, with a small dewdrop notch and fairly slim bezels all around Both the rear fingerprint sensor, and face unlock work accurately and fast Nice, large 6.5inch IPS display, well suited to media consumption - with good color saturation, and good sunlight legibility ColorOS is now more streamlined, and cleaner than before, and of course packs a bunch of additional functionality over stock Android Good performance for the price bracket, with the fast Snapdragon 665 at the core - everything from day-to-day use to high-end games is fairly smooth Thermal control is good too - the phone doesn't get more than a little warm, even with long sessions of gaming The cameras are the main upgrade for the Realme 5s, with a new 48MP primary camera (the rest of the camera setup is the same: 2MP depth sensor + 8MP wide-angle camera + 2MP macro camera for closeup shots) Overall image quality is slightly improved from the primary camera, especially in daylight The 119-degree ultrawide-angle camera is the same as on the Realme 5 Pro, and captures decent images for sharing on social media platforms Portrait shots come out decent too Decent 13-megapixel selfie camera - it delivers decent portrait shots too Decent bottom loudspeaker Outstanding battery life with a gigantic 5000mAh battery - you will get a cool 2 days of moderate use Overall, the Realme 5s is a pretty good option to consider if you want to optimize for a stylish design, and good battery	Fresh, sophisticated and premium-looking rear design - it features a pattern of vertical pinstripes down the rear that seem to shift from side to side when you move the phone around under the light Front looks slick with a dewdrop notch at the top It's relatively easy to use and live with because of its tall and narrow footprint The fingerprint reader is on the back and performs well Large 6.5-inch HD+ display - it's crisp enough for gaming and video streaming Software is one area where Realme has taken a big leap, the Realme UI is easy to use - it is also packed with features such as Game Space, Digital Wellbeing, Focus Mode, Dark Mode, and Riding Mode among others Good performance from the new MediaTek G80 chipset (similar to the Snapdragon 712) - the phone smoothly handles day-to-day task with ease and heavy games like PUBG Mobile run reasonably well Decent quad-camera setup at the back - a 48MP primary camera, a 8MP ultra-wide, a 2MP macro and a 2MP depth sensor Shots with primary camera, under bright sunlight have lots of detail and exposures are well balanced - it works well for casual photography The ultra-wide-angle camera delivers fairly decent shots and captures more of the scene in the frame, as long as there is good lighting The portrait mode works well with well defined subjects and natural looking bokeh The selfie camera is decent - it also takes quite good portraits Excellent battery life with the 5000 mAh battery - it easily lasts for 2 days of moderate use Decent fast charging with the supplied 18W charger - it fills the phone's battery to the brim in about 2 hours The Narzo 10 is a very strong contender if your priority is performance and battery life, and for its target audience, which are gamers, these are the things that matter
2-minute Review [Negatives]	This is a fairly large phone though - the size does make one-handed use cumbersome, and even with large hands, you will struggle to tap anywhere near the top of the display (thankfully, ColorOS offers a one-handed mode to help tackle this issue) The Realme 5s is a bit heavy too, at nearly 200g - and it's also a little top heavy - which again hinders long-time one handed use If you like more premium glass builds (instead of plastic), then there are options like the Redmi Note 8 available in this price bracket now Screen resolution is on the low side, so long text reading is not the most ideal experience There is, as always, a plethora of preinstalled apps - though thankfully these can be uninstalled The 2-megapixel macro lens gives interesting framing options, but is ordinary otherwise - it takes a few tries to get a detailed macro shot - in fact, there are times when you will get slightly better results with the main camera Low light performance is still average however, both for images, and video - there is some noise, and less detail in low light images - the Nightscape mode helps a bit, but not a lot Overall, while the camera is improved, and is pretty good for the price bracket, it's not quite as good as its main competitor, the Redmi Note 8, which delivers relatively more true-to-life images with natural-looking colors, more details, and better low-light performance Uses the old Micro USB port - some competitors like the Redmi Note 8 have now shifted to the modern USB-C standard No fast charging support - with the supplied charger, you will get a full charge in more than two and a half hours It has a strong competitor in the Redmi Note 8 though, which offers a premium glass build, 18W fast charging, Gorilla Glass 5 protection, a full HD+ display, and perhaps most importantly a better 48-megapixel camera - unless you have a strong preference for the crystal back design of the Realme 5S or want the best possible battery life, the Redmi Note 8 is looking like the better all-rounder for most people Additionally, if you want stock Android phones, then the Moto One Action and Moto One Macro are also worth considering, and if you want the best display for your buck, then the Samsung's Galaxy M30 with an AMOLED display is a good option as well Another caveat to keep in mind is the size and weight of the phone - if you like your phones compact, and your routine involves a lot of one-handed use, then this might not be for you	A bit thick at 9mm and relatively hefty at 199g Competition offers better displays with FHD+ resolution The display isn't particularly bright and could be a problem to use in direct sunlight There are still a number of pre-loaded apps however - though most of these can thankfully be uninstalled Low-light photography is just average, as expected from a budget phone Macros are blotchy and rough, with the limited resolution, this camera should be used more for fun than anything else However, if you can spend a little more, you might want to consider the Realme 6 and the Redmi Note 9 Pro instead, as they offer much better performance and cameras
