Why This Phone
BudgetThe Realme V23i is an entry-level device that struggles to justify its price point against modern budget competitors. While it offers 5G and a smooth display, the combination of slow charging, low-resolution screen, and minimal RAM makes it difficult to recommend for daily use.
