The realme 15 Series 5G is celebrated for its advanced camera system, sleek design, and strong performance. Beyond these highlights, it hides a range of practical tools that improve daily convenience. These lesser-known features help users act faster, see clearer, and stay connected in moments when it matters most.
From quick gestures to AI-powered photo editing, the realme 15 Series 5G delivers smart enhancements that go beyond the surface. Below are the features that make the device stand out for everyday use.
Shake to Launch: Light or Camera in a Flash
A simple double shake can instantly open the camera or flashlight. This gesture saves time during unexpected power interruptions or quick photo opportunities.
How to activate: Settings → Accessibility & convenience → Gestures & motions → Shake to launch
This feature offers instant utility, letting users capture moments or light up dark surroundings without navigating menus.
Extra Brightness for Outdoor Clarity
Bright sunlight can make screens hard to read. The Extra Brightness mode lets users manually increase display brightness beyond the usual range, ensuring clear visibility even under strong daylight.
How to activate: Settings → Display & brightness → Extra brightness
Note: This function uses more battery power since the display consumes additional energy at higher brightness levels.
Free Call: Stay Connected Even Without Signal
The Free Call feature helps users stay in touch even in weak signal areas like basements or concert halls. It enables Bluetooth-based calls to nearby compatible realme devices, offering a reliable connection when networks fail.
How to activate: Settings → Mobile network → Free Call
This function is available on select realme models, including the realme 15 Series 5G. It demonstrates realme’s focus on practical connectivity that works beyond standard cellular coverage.
Air Gestures: Hands-Free Control
Air Gestures allow users to interact with the phone without touching the screen. You can scroll social media feeds or answer calls while cooking, doing laundry, or washing hands. Supported apps include Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube.
How to activate: Settings → Accessibility & convenience → Smart Sensing → Air Gestures
This feature provides smooth, touch-free navigation, improving usability in multitasking situations.
IR Remote: The Ultimate Home Control
With the IR Remote, the realme 15 Series 5G becomes a universal remote control. It can operate TVs, air conditioners, projectors, and robot vacuums from various brands.
Where to find: Tools Folder → IR Remote (You can also locate it by typing “IR Remote” in the home screen search bar.)
This built-in tool adds convenience for home management, removing the need for multiple remotes.
Quick Launch for Instant Access
The Quick Launch feature offers up to five shortcuts accessible through the fingerprint sensor. Users can assign shortcuts for actions such as calling a contact, opening Notes, or launching favorite apps.
How to activate: Settings → Accessibility & convenience → Quick Launch
This function speeds up routine actions by reducing steps to access frequently used apps.
Screen-off Gestures: Smart Shortcuts in Standby Mode
Screen-off Gestures remain a favorite among long-time realme users. By double-tapping or drawing shapes on a turned-off display, users can launch apps or control functions. Drawing a circle opens the camera, while drawing “V” turns on the flashlight. Users can also control music using (II, >, <) or launch specific apps using (Ʌ, M, W).
How to activate: Settings → Accessibility & convenience → Gestures & motions → Screen-off gestures
This feature provides intuitive control even when the screen is inactive, saving time and effort.
Bonus: AI Editor Tools for Smarter Photos
The realme 15 Series 5G enhances image editing with advanced AI-powered tools.
- AI Recompose improves composition by suggesting better framing, aspect ratios, and filters.
- AI Perfect Shot refines group or portrait photos by identifying faces and fixing subtle expressions or closed eyes using other gallery images of the same person.
These tools simplify editing, producing polished results without manual adjustments.
Designed for Everyday Ease
The realme 15 Series 5G shows that innovation can be thoughtful rather than loud. Its features focus on real convenience, flexibility, and creativity, designed to make everyday experiences more seamless. Each function serves a clear purpose, from quick gestures to advanced AI tools, proving that true innovation enhances how users interact with their device.
