This time around, the key selling point of the Realme 6 and Realme 6 Pro is the 90Hz LCD which both smartphones have. A 90Hz or faster screen allows for smoother gaming and higher frame rates in games that support it. The two also pack plenty of power under the hood and sport a 64-megapixel camera for crisp shots and 4K video recording. The 6 and 6 Pro come with fast charging over USB-C as well, up to 30 watts using the bundled charger.

On the software side, both phones ship with Realme UI based on the latest Android 10 operating system. Realme UI introduces many new visual elements and features, including major improvements to the system performance and a Dark Mode with improved support for third-party apps.
