Cons of the Realme 15T
Average Performance: The included Dimensity 6400 Max chipset is considered less powerful than the processors found in some rival phones in the same price segment.
Lacks Ultrawide Camera: The rear camera setup often lacks a dedicated ultrawide lens, limiting versatility for landscape and group photography.
Weak Low-Light Camera: The overall camera performance is only average in low-light conditions, with photos sometimes showing noticeable noise.
No 3.5mm Headphone Jack: It does not include the traditional 3.5mm audio jack, requiring users to rely on USB-C or wireless audio.
Slower Charging Speed: While the 60W fast charging is decent, some competing phones offer significantly faster charging speeds to power up their large batteries.
