            I used one for 2 years and it was perfectly okay..
            That it didn't catch on had nothing to do with actual camera failures.

              It had some issues,but the pop up camera was non of them,it worked perfectly untill the day the phone refused to power on..
              Pop up Cameras have been around for the better part of 5 years,if your assertions of failed movable parts is true,there would have been enough complaints by users to be very damning..

                  That 240W charging support on Realme GT Neo 5 should've put on this tbh. That kind of charging is more valuable on a bigger battery like this than a 4600 mAh battery.

                            4 days straight for music and 2 days straight for video? I'm not convinced. It should be easily at least double the figure.

                            As for that gigantic battery, this would be the time where I would truly appreciate 120W or 240W wired charging. With such a huge capacity, you definitely want a fast charging rate.

                              Pumpino, 30 Apr 2023Why did the pop-up selfie camera die off? Not having a punch hole or notch made sense.Having NO front camera at all because the motors to raise/lower it shorted, got jammed, or went bad - as is tradition with ALL moving parts - doesn't make sense.

It’s all attempt to milk their customers beyond the initial purchase. They didn’t become a trillion dollar company from nowhere.

Not having a punch hole or notch made sense.Mechanical move things like pop-up camera and foldable screen are more prone to break. That's why there are more cases of screen damage on the Samsung Z series than the S series, because it requires some mechanical movement.

                                      Well, at that time , the principle was more battery more lives. But now, what we need is very quick charge and battery efficiency let's say one phone has 200W charging tech, get full battery for only 5 minutes while to spend 4000 MAh battery for gaming is 5 hours

                                        This is also why it’s annoying that phones today are getting larger and heavier. Instead of optimizing the hardware and software to be efficient, everybody is pretty much slapping a large battery with bloated OS and call it a day.
