Realme Narzo 90 5G and Narzo 90x 5G Specifications
The Narzo 90 5G sports a 6.57-inch AMOLED Full HD+ display with a 1080×2372-pixel resolution, a smooth 120Hz refresh rate, a 240Hz touch sampling rate, and a peak brightness of 1,400 nits at 397 ppi. In contrast, the Narzo 90x 5G opts for a larger 6.80-inch LCD panel with a 720×1570-pixel resolution, a 144Hz refresh rate, and 1,200 nits peak brightness — a trade-off that keeps costs down while still delivering fluid scrolling.
Both phones run Realme UI 6.0 based on Android 15 out of the box. The Narzo 90 5G carries a robust IP66/68/69 dust and water resistance rating, while the Narzo 90x 5G holds an IP65 rating — both well above what you'd typically find at this price tier.
Performance and Battery
The Narzo 90 5G is driven by an octa-core MediaTek Dimensity 6400 Max chipset built on a 6nm process, paired with a Mali-G57 MC2 GPU. The Narzo 90x 5G uses the closely related MediaTek Dimensity 6300, also on 6nm with the same GPU. Both models include 8GB of LPDDR4x RAM and 128GB of UFS 2.2 storage.
A 7,000mAh battery powers each device, supported by 60W wired fast charging — an unusually large cell for this price bracket. The Narzo 90 5G is notably slimmer and lighter, measuring 158.36 × 75.19 mm at 7.79 mm thin and weighing 181 grams. The larger Narzo 90x 5G measures 166.07 × 77.93 mm, is 8.28 mm thick, and weighs 212 grams.

On the camera front, the Narzo 90 5G features a dual rear camera setup consisting of a 50MP primary sensor with an f/1.8 aperture and a 2MP monochrome lens with an f/2.4 aperture. Its selfie camera is equally capable, housing a 50MP front-facing sensor. The Narzo 90x 5G keeps things simpler with a single 50MP rear camera (f/1.8) and an 8MP front camera with an f/2.0 aperture.
Connectivity on both phones covers 5G, Bluetooth 5.3, Wi-Fi 5, GPS, and USB Type-C — everything needed for modern, everyday use.
