Reviews for the Realme GT Explorer Master Edition

88% Realme GT Master Explorer Edition Review: My Favorite Realme Phone
Source: Gadgetbyte Nepal English EN→zh-CN
Wrapping up this review, as you might tell, I have quite enjoyed my time with the Realme GT Master Explorer Edition. With its curved design and the Snapdragon 870 on board, it felt like I was using a flagship phone. Then again, it does have some caveats that you can’t expect at this price range. For instance, its cameras aren’t as good as last year’s flagships and you don’t get any sort of IP rating either. But with all things considered, among all the phones I have used this year, I can go as far as to say that this is the best premium midrange phone of 2021. And probably the “flagship killer” phone of the year too. Therefore, I am really looking forward to Realme launching this phone globally, and I hope BBK doesn’t mess this up and prioritize the OnePlus 9RT instead—which simply won’t be fair for Realme.

75% Realme GT Master Explorer Edition review: good for gaming, but not much else
Source: Phandroid English EN→zh-CN
The Realme GT Master Explorer Edition isn’t a device without compromises, but it’s perfectly tailered for someone who’s looking for a gaming-centric smartphone that also offers a premium build and a fairly good main camera. Just keep in mind that there are some workaround needed to get the Google Play Store installed on the phone and you won’t necisserily have the best software experience. If this device checks all the right boxes for you, it’s not a bad buy at all, but there are definitely quite a few other smartphones for $50 or $100 more that will be less of a hassle, especially for those of us in North America and Europe.

88% Realme GT Explorer Master review
Source: GSM Arena English EN→zh-CN
A GT for everyone, that must have been at least part of Realme's goal. The GT Explorer Master is, at first glance, the photography-centric model of the bunch, offering a proper high-end main camera, and the best ultrawide Realme's put in a phone. The GT EM does deliver on this promise, but the list of good things about it goes on to include the beautiful AMOLED display, excellent battery life, and high-performing chipset. Add to that the eye-catching shell of the suitcase version, and there's very little missing. Having said all that, the Realme GT Explorer Master is still nowhere to be found on official channels in Europe. But when it does show up, we can't name a legitimate reason not to get one.

90% Realme GT Explorer Master Edition Review: Good Looks, Performance, and Value
Source: Gear Diary English EN→zh-CN
The realme GT Explore Master Edition is a very well-made phone that looks and performs like it is much more expensive than it actually is. If you want to get away from the usual, this smartphone has a lot to offer by way of speed, its RAM and user memory options, its excellent display, its cameras, battery life, and its excellent sound. It’s a shame that realme isn’t more widely available in the US yet, but hopefully, that will be changing soon.

80% Realme GT Explorer Master Edition Review
Source: Slashgear English EN→zh-CN
The Realme GT Explorer Master Edition dares to make an appeal to younger users who want to recall fond travel memories whenever they look at or hold their phones. Even without that rather gimmicky design, it does hold up to premium smartphone standards thanks to its no-nonsense specs and features. The real clincher, however, is the price tag that starts at 2,899 RMB ($450) for 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage, making the smartphone quite a steal for those that can get their hands on one.

6.55":

只有较少的手机有很大的屏幕。

大尺寸可以让屏幕有更高的分辨率。因而例如字体等的细节将会更丰富。不过另一方面,小屏幕的功耗会较低,而设备也会更轻盈小巧,售价更低。
