realme 14 5G Review:

Bringing gaming closer to you

By: Paul Cheng

Marketed as a gaming phone, the realme 14 5G, makes gaming much more accessible to a younger generation of gamers since it is more affordable. I’ve been using the phone and I can say that it’s faster than the previous mobile phone that I used.

I’m not much of a mobile phone gamer, but I do play Monster Hunter Now and the game seems smoother on the realme 14 while the game is on high graphic settings, which makes for a better playing experience.

You can check out the specifications below for more details.
