The realme 15 Series 5G already stands out for its sleek design, fast performance, and reliable camera system. But beyond what’s on the spec sheet, there are a handful of thoughtful, underrated features that quietly make life smoother — from quick shortcuts to smart tools that keep you connected when it matters most.
Here are some of the hidden gems inside realme’s newest 5G phone lineup.
1. Shake to Launch: Camera or Flashlight in Seconds
Need to capture a moment or find your way in the dark? A quick double shake instantly opens your camera or flashlight — no swiping or unlocking needed.
Activate it: Settings → Accessibility & convenience → Gestures & motions → Shake to launch
2. Extra Brightness Mode for Clear Outdoor Viewing
Under bright sunlight, the Extra Brightness feature manually boosts screen brightness beyond the standard limit so you can read and navigate clearly.
Activate it: Settings → Display & brightness → Extra brightness
(Note: It uses a bit more power, so best for outdoor use.)
3. Free Call: Stay Connected Without Signal
When reception drops — like in elevators or concert venues — Free Call lets you make Bluetooth-based calls to nearby realme devices. It’s one of those small but genius tools that keep you connected anywhere.
Activate it: Settings → Mobile network → Free Call
(Feature supported on select realme devices including the 15 Series 5G.)
4. Air Gestures: Hands-Free Scrolling
Multitasking just got easier. With Air Gestures, you can scroll through TikTok, Instagram, or even answer calls without touching your screen — great for cooking, cleaning, or working out.
Activate it: Settings → Accessibility & convenience → Smart Sensing → Air Gestures
5. IR Remote: Control Your Home Devices
Turn your phone into a universal remote for TVs, air conditioners, projectors, or robot vacuums. It’s built right into the Tools folder and supports hundreds of brands.
Find it: Tools Folder → IR Remote
6. Quick Launch and Screen-Off Gestures
The Quick Launch feature lets you assign shortcuts to the fingerprint sensor — like calling someone or opening an app instantly. Meanwhile, Screen-Off Gestures bring back the classics: draw a “V” for flashlight, “O” for camera, or music controls like “II” and “>”.
Activate it: Settings → Accessibility & convenience → Quick Launch / Screen-off gestures
Bonus: AI Editor Tools for Effortless Photos
The new AI editing suite makes post-processing smoother.
- AI Recompose suggests better framing and filters automatically.
- AI Perfect Shot fixes closed eyes or awkward expressions using facial data from other gallery shots.
Thoughtful Tech for Everyday Life
The realme 15 Series 5G proves that innovation doesn’t always mean flashy new specs. It’s in the small, well-designed touches that anticipate what users actually need day to day — speed, clarity, and smart convenience.
