Realme UI 4 with Android 13 review

The Realme 10 Pro and 10 Pro+ are the first Realme phones to come out with Android 13. There is little you can see from the original Android interface as Realme uses its custom Realme UI, now in version 4.0.
It’s a good thing that the Realme UI 4.0 combines Android 13 and Realme UI optimizations, so you won’t be missing features of either one.

Android 13 highlight features include:

Expanded customization options.
Improved copy & paste.
Improved media controls.
Easier notification control with new permissions.
Spatial Audio support, Bluetooth LE Audio support.
Improved privacy.
Integrated QR scanner.
Realme UI 4.0 also brings a slew of updates:

New card-like layout, new simplistic icons.
Improved Always-on Display with music controls.
Dynamic widgets.
Large folders.
Auto Pixelate personal info on IM screenshots.
Private Safe updated with Advanced Encryption Standard (AES).
And now, let’s take a closer look at this new software suite. We used the Realme 10 Pro+ as our guinea pig, as it is our most feature-rich phone with Realme UI for now. Some Realme phones may not get all the functionality we are about to explore, though.
Android 13 and Realme UI 4
Always-on screen is available, and it can show the usual content – clock, date, notifications icons, and battery, but you can opt-out of some of the information. The AOD has been expanded with Realme UI 4.0 with various themes, clocks, and even custom patterns to draw. The AOD now supports Spotify media controls, too.

The AOD can be power-saving (hide after a short motionless period), scheduled, or always on
And while we are talking about personalization, Realme UI 4.0 is flexible when it comes to this. There is an entire Style (and Wallpapers) page in Settings. You can change wallpapers (live and static), switch to different icon packs, different quick toggles icon shapes, change fonts, and choose completely different colors that will change the entire Realme UI look. Different AOD themes and fingerprint scanner animations are available, too. You can even turn on/off Edge Lighting, which is independent of the Always-On Display.
