To those with Realme 5, is it good for old folks to use? I'm looking phone below RM500 so other brand also can suggest as long as its android phone.

It's a bit big and heavy. The resolution also not very sharp so may not be suitable if the old folks do a lot of reading on the phone. Other than that, the battery life is superb. Forget to charge also no problem smile.gif

I don't think old folks have sharp eyes to spot the difference anywau. The old phone already less than 720p but not a problem for them. Will look into it.

Worse case try factory reset. Don't don't forget to backup.

Is the 6GB RAM version really worth it for R5 Pro model?

Same internal storage as the 64GB version but topup to get 2GB extra RAM so, 64GB ROM+6GB RAM.  hmm.gif
*
Anything bigger is always better when it comes to RAM. My 5 Pro runs smooth like butter with 8GB, and I think 6GB is still good amount of memory.

Open the App Market. You press that icon to scan QR code.

Silly way of doing it but it works.

Smooth enough for my parent. No complaints. I tried a bit and find it perform adequately. Don't think most old people will notice the speed as long as apps can function well.

Not so sure I didn't check which wifi frequency I set up for them.

Doubt parents will notice the difference.
