Nubia Neo 3 5G review, the ideal option for gamers on a budget?
Attractive and unique design
The Nubia Neo 3 5G offers a distinctive design with a futuristic mecha design style. The shape is similar to its brother, the Nubia Neo 3 GT 5G, but has its own characteristics. This device comes in three color choices, namely Shadow Black, Cyber Silver, and Titanium Gold, with interesting gradations. The back side looks like a robotic eye that is observing the user, complete with RGB LED lines that light up when playing games or receive notifications. In addition, this device also has an IP54 rating for dust and splash resistance.
Amazing screen
The 6.8-inch Nubia Neo 3 3 5G screen with Full HD + resolution and supports 120Hz refresh rate. This high refresh rate makes the gaming experience smoother. This screen can also reach peak brightness of up to 1,000 nits, making it comfortable to use even in the sun. On the screen, there is a Live Island 2.0 feature that is similar to Dynamic Island on the iPhone. With a sharp and responsive screen, the Nubia Neo 3 5G offers an adequate visual experience for its use.
Fast and stable performance
The kitchen runway Nubia Neo 3 5G is supported by the UniSoc T8300 chipset with 8GB RAM which can be upgraded up to 20GB and 256GB of storage. In the AnTuTu test, this device reached a score of around 400 thousand, including high for smartphones in its class. The manufacturer also equips the device with various AI features such as AI Game Space 3.0, AI Gaming Companion, AI Trigger, and AI Behavioral Learning. The Dual Gaming Shoulder Triggers feature is also embedded to enhance the gaming experience. Despite the excellent performance, this device tends to heat up easily when playing intensive games such as Free Fire Max, with temperatures reaching 44 degrees Celsius.
Good enough camera for daily use
Although aimed at gaming, the Nubia Neo 3 5G does not give a big investment in the camera. This device only features a 50MP main camera, a 2MP bokeh lens, and a 16MP front camera. The photos from the main camera are quite good in adequate light conditions, but less optimal in dark conditions. The AI Super Night feature is often ineffective in low light situations. The 16MP front camera is also quite ordinary, but it is enough for daily selfie purposes.
Large battery and fast charging
Behind the hood, the Nubia Neo 3 5G carries a jumbo battery with a capacity of 6,000 mAh. With this battery, the device is claimed to last up to two days for light to moderate use. To charge, the Nubia Neo 3 5G is equipped with 33W fast charging, which is capable of charging the battery from 0 to 100 percent in about 90 minutes. In addition, there is a bypass charging feature that allows users to use the device without having to use a battery.
competitive price
The current price of the Nubia Neo 3 5G is Rp. 2,469,000, which is slightly cheaper than the Nubia Neo 3 GT 5G at a price of Rp. 2,999,000. With attractive specifications and competitive prices, the Nubia Neo 3 5G deserves to be considered as an entry-level gaming phone. Some of its main competitors include Tecno Pova 6, Infinix Note 40, and Redmi Note 13 5G.
