The little C65 is the company’s last budget offer in India. It has a decent set of specifications, a large screen, a large battery and triple rear cameras. The last telephone of the C of little C has a couple of firstfruits in the segment, according to the company. The phone is identical to Redmi 13c 4g in terms of specifications and design, but entails some subtle changes. I have been testing the new little C65 during the last week, and this is what I think of him.

Unfortunately, there is no case included in the box.
Little C65 Review: Design
The little C65 looks pretty good for a phone that has a price of less than RS. 10,000 (bank offers included). There is no metal or glass on the phone, except at the front, but the phone has a good appearance. I have been using the blue pastel variant of the phone, which has a plastic back and frame. The rear panel has two design elements. It has a matte finish mostly, and there is a brilliant rectangular section at the top, which houses the triple camera configuration, the LED flash sits and carries the logo of little.
The matt finish on the back makes the phone slippery, but at least it is not a digital footprint magnet. It is also a big phone, but you don’t feel the weight. The phone weighs 192 grams. In the front, the phone presents Gorilla Glass 3 protection for the screen, which obtains thick bezels everywhere. The lower bezel is especially thick, which gives the phone an obsolete appearance.
Little C65 Review: Screen
Little has included a large screen on its new C-Series phone. The little C65 obtains a 6.74 -inch screen with HD+ resolution (720 x 1600 pixels) and an update speed of 90Hz. It is not a bad screen at all, and in my time with the phone, it was also readable under direct sunlight. The phone is set in self-refresh in a default, which automatically changes between 60 and 90Hz as a function of content. You can always configure it in 60 or 90Hz, but the latter will use more battery. The screen offers up to 600 maximum brightness nits and decent viewing angles. You can enjoy watching videos in the LITTLE C65, and also get L1 Widevine certifications so you can watch 1080p resolution videos in Netflix, Amazon Prime Video and other transmission services. The phone also comes with Tuv Low Blue Light and flickering certification that helps offer a pleasant visualization experience.
The screen on the little C65 also offers vivid, saturated and standard modes to choose from. In general, the phone has a decent screen.
Review of Little C65: Software
You, the little C65 comes with Miui 14 skin based on Android 13. I also received a software update in a week that I have been using the phone that installed the Android Security Patch of November.
Little has promised up to two years of Android and three security updates, which is quite good for a budget smartphone.
Miui 14 offers many characteristics about the Android stock, but there are also a lot of Bloatware. Directly from the box, the little C65 had a lot of pre -installed games and applications. However, these applications can be uninstalled if you don’t want them on your phone, which is good. You will find some ads here and there, but mainly in the form of application suggestions. When configuring the phone, you are also asked if you want to use the glance lock screen that yields the block background of the lock whenever you want to unlock the phone. There is also a keyboard that appears when the application drawer opens for the first time, but can disable this keyboard while trying to show your application recommendations.
Review of little C65: performance
The little C65 works decently. The telephone has a mediaTek Helio G85 socio, which is not a new chipset. I noticed a delay when I used the phone. The delay was present when moving through applications, changing applications, multitasking with more than a couple of applications that are executed in the background and when performing other daily tasks.
Little has matched the socio mediatek with up to 8 GB of RAM in the little C65. It also obtains up to 4 GB of additional virtual RAM that borrows from internal storage. I did not execute any reference point, since I do not think it was necessary to evaluate the performance of the phone in daily use.
Can you play games in little C65?
Yes you can. However, games such as BGMI or ASPHALT 9 require that you attenuate graphics configuration to obtain a playable box speed. With BGMI, the game automatically establishes the HD graphics and the high -to -high table. I could mainly play the game without problems with these settings, but from time to time I faced a delay. Touch Sensitivity when the game is fine, since the phone has a 180Hz tactile sampling rate. The phone warmed while playing resources intensive in resources such as BGMI and Asphalt 9.
Using the little C65 to play is totally well, but wait for a delay and not the best graphic performance when playing games like BGMI. I also noticed that the phone was heating during games and resource intensive conversations.
Little C65 review: battery life
The little C65 has a 5,000 mAh battery that admits up to 18 w of fast charging. However, it only comes with a 10 W charger in the box. Using the charger included, it has been completely loading the phone for a while. With a 30 -minute charge, the phone reached 22 percent and dragged 44 percent in one hour. A full load took 2 hours and 32 minutes. I would recommend buying a 18W charger.
In my time using the little C65, the phone lasted easily for a day with some games and use of the camera. If you are not a player, maybe you could get two days of use.
Little C65: cameras
Little C65 presents a triple AI rear camera configuration that includes a primary 50 megapixel sensor, a 2 megapixel macro camera and a third depth chamber of AI for photos of portraits. For selfies, there is an 8 megapixel sensor housed inside a water notch.
The camera interface is easy to use and offers rapid access to all the main ways of photos and video. However, the macro mode is hidden in the drop -down menu. Obtain an HDR lever and an option to choose different filters in photographic mode. The phone also allows you to take photos with a complete resolution of 50 megapixels, but that is not compatible with HDR. Little C65 can shoot 720p or 1080p resolution at 30 fps.
The quality and quality of the video of the photos of daylight taken from the primary sensor had color and average details, even when I used the full mode of 50 megapixels. I guess the image quality is fine for a phone that costs less than RS. 10,000. The quality of video in daylight is also fine, with a lot of noise when it approaches 2x. There is no optical or electronic stabilization of the image, but you get automatic approach.
Above: 1x standard mode; Below: Zoom 2x
At night, the photos taken from the main camera are loud and lack details. Once again, using 50 megapixels mode does not help much. A night mode is available in the little C65, which can help with photos with little light. The images taken in the night mode have less noise and capture more light, compared to the shots taken in photo mode.
Above: 1x standard of low light; Below: 1x night mode
There is also an available macro mode that produces images with average levels of detail. Only two of the three rear cameras are usable: the primary sensor of 50 megapixels and the 2 megapixel macro sensor. The third camera is only there to collect depth information for photos of portraits. The smartphone takes pictures of portraits in 1x, and there is no option to approach. Having a dedicated sensor for depth information helps edge detection, but it is not perfect. However, you can adjust the depth when taking a portrait photo.
Above: portrait mode; Below: macro mode
Now, when arriving in selfies, the front camera takes decent photos. There are enough details and you also get a beauty mode. The front camera admits the portrait mode, video capture to up to 1080p 30 fps and the time of time. It also obtains a flash function that uses the screen as a light source. Once again, the photos and videos are average, which is not a surprise from a phone in this price segment.
What else does C65 offer?
The little C65 comes with a USB type C port and a headphones connector. The phone also comes with Bluetooth 5.3, 4G LTE, a microSD card slot, double SIM and double-band Wi-Fi. You also get a digital footprint scanner mounted on the side, which is fast when it works. There were a couple of cases in which the sensor did not immediately recognize my finger. Sometimes a couple of taps are needed to work. The phone is also compatible with Face Uplock, but I would not recommend using this, since it is not safe.
A single speaker is available at the bottom, which is decent. It becomes strong enough to be useful inside, but lacks any type of bass. The ear speaker is good enough, and the haptic engine is quite strong.
Little C65 review: verdict
For the price, yes, you must buy the little C65, especially if you get the RS. 1,000 instant discounts. It has a large screen, a good battery life and a decent construction quality. The 50 megapixel rear camera offers an average yield to daylight, but it is not very good at night. However, the phone lacks 5G support, but there are not many phones in this price segment that offer this function. If you are looking for an android budget telephone with a large screen and a battery, but it does not matter particularly the performance or cameras, then definitely give it a short time.
