The design in terms of the Ultrabook wouldn’t have escaped much of it focused on simplicity. The design should come out like this, but the realme itself is different in terms of colours. The model we reviewed will be a real blue colour, a bluish tint that can make some difference. Including inserting a finger scan to the power button as well; in terms of weight, it is 1.38 grams, and the device’s thinness is 14.9 mm, considered portable.
When looking at the overall picture of the device itself, the colour tone is beautiful and outstanding. And comes with a simple logo on the back, engraved with chrome, can play with a bit of light. Still, the back cover will not play any simple patterns, all the same material throughout the device And when opened, we can see the full screen in a 3:2 ratio than usual, and the bezel is thin.
Including black tones around the edge of the screen and all buttons are beautiful black tones and white lights to use are considered very good. And the most impressive thing is the story of TOUCHPAD, which is very satisfying compared to the device’s size. There is no intel sticker. Anything put on top makes the machine smooth, elegant and good looking because all the logos have been moved under the whole machine.
The screen edge is thin, making the proportion to the device up to 90 % and the design of all edges only 5.3 mm and the top edge at 8.45 mm, which in addition to being beautiful, makes the use vividly.
The device is smaller as well, which the top edge is inserted into both the front camera and the mic has not been cut out anywhere. And at the bottom, we can see the realme logo in a simple interior.
The edges are slightly thicker than usual on a Notebook. The hinges are standard. But it’s a pity that it can’t be opened with one hand to open the device’s lid. It’s a bit pity, and the power button comes with a finger scan that supports Windows Hello. Easy to launch the device.

The realmebook screen is considered a very high-quality screen on the market in the same price range. This one comes with a screen that uses a screen ratio of 3:2, comes with a resolution of up to 2K, and of course, a beautiful thin-bezel design and uses Gorilla Glass’s glossy glass as well.
The 14-inch IPS screen specs (2,160×1,440 pixels), 2K resolution, 400nits maximum brightness, 100% sRGB, 1500:1 contrast ratio and 3:2 screen ratio make it more space above below other models.
The screen is considered to have impressive quality of use in terms of viewing images. The colours are pretty straight. The viewing angle is IPS-like, supports tilting angles well, and includes the image colour display dimensions.
You can say that it is a perfect screen in the market right now, including one that can actually be used to drive the colour of the picture with a beautiful dimension. And can fight the light with a brightness of 400nits, but with the use of a mirror, the screen may encounter light interference more quickly than in general.

| Graphics | Intel Iris Xe Graphics |
| RAM | 8 GB LPDDR4x |
| Storage | 512 GB |
In terms of performance, the device must say that this model uses the latest intel Gen 11. The Intel Core i5-1135G7, Tiger Lake 10nm SuperFin technology, will process 4 Core / 8 Thread running at 2.40 – 4.20 GHz maximum and TDP of 15Watt, which is the latest of this blue camp this year. And it comes with an OnBoard Intel Iris Xe Graphics ready built-in graphics card which is better than the i3, which is only UHD and comes with 8GB DDR4 4266MHz RAM.
OnBoard is not upgradable and in terms of memory. Capacity SSD 512GB M. 2 PCle is supplied for reading and writing very high, but it is OnBoard and can not be changed.
If you look at the overall upgrade is not supported. But because this is an average Ultrabook, many camps themselves will not be able to unpack or upgrade anything and come with Windows 10 with support for Windows 11 immediately upon release and with Microsoft Office 2019 Preload.
A score of 4634 according to the level of the CPU. In many ways, it is a rendering that seems to work really in terms of total use when using a computer. The score is not bad if we look at this price. And scores come out like this, of course, much better than the previous CPU, making this one considered satisfactory.
The score in the Night Raid is 15,301 points. The processing of this model in 3D is perfect, even. There will be no discrete graphics card to help. But scores are equal to those of MX and can be used in rendering them in 3D. It is considered comfortable, do not worry, making the work of different rendering starts comfortably. As for the Wild Life score, it can touch 11335. Wild Life Extreme is harsh at 3231 points, which is considered a lot for an onboard graphics card like this. The heat tested is CPU 60 and GPU 59 for this one. That said, it controls the heat very well.

The connection port on this model comes with both USB-C ports, which is interesting in that this price point is capable of using Thunderbolt 4, supports data rates of up to 40Gb/s, and can connect two 4K screens at the same time. And in the port inside is USB-C 3.2 Gen 2, it is considered to have a certain level of sensitivity in use. The speakers will be on the front side.
And on the right side, it’s still good to put USB-A and give 3.1 Gen 1; it is considered that some camps still use 2.0 only, but the realmeBook is deemed to be very high speed and comes with a 3.5 mm hole has not been cut. Wherever and wireless, it supports Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.1 technology. The latest wireless technology and high speed comfortably.
Keyboard and Touchpad
The keyboard uses a three-level backlit keyboard with 1.3 mm of essential travel and comes with large keys and a Smile Arc that fit the fingertips, which, as far as we can see, is the placement of all keys. We can see that it has a layout that is very similar to the others as well.
The standard use of the arrow keys and comes with the Fn button can be adjusted to 3 levels, smooth like that, increasing or decreasing the light will gradually gradient, not immediately adjusted to a small detail that looks premium. Counterpart The keys are visible in black with standard spacing for each key. which must be said that not much adjustment if anyone has used other camps before
Of course, the keys are arranged like a typical keyboard. Which is not difficult to adjust, similar to other camps in this price and design level Like that the button is large and has an ideal space to use, but the distance of the button when pressed down is not as deep as 1.3 mm.
The touchpad is large compared to the machine, realme Book uses an extra-large touchpad. This increases the control area by up to 44% compared to other general notebooks. Of course, compared to the 14-inch size, this is considered a very satisfying touchpad ratio. Including in terms of materials, it is smooth, making it easy to touch even if it doesn’t have a chrome design.

Conclusion!
The first time of the camp that did well in both performances. Quality of assembly work and specification.
This model is interested in many ways, including a 2K screen with a light body and the whole machine aluminium material.
At the same time, the Thunderbolt 4 port works with the latest intel Gen 11 perfectly, and of course, the cooling issue comes with dual fans and 2 HeatPipe, which is more than competitors in the market and use.
Quality, specifications, screens, speakers are all satisfactory. But there is a point that we may have to see if 8 GB of RAM will be enough for our use or not.
