Throttling test

The Realme GT 6T throttled less in our Burnout test, which puts the phone’s chipset under some strenuous load. We ran the handset at around 58.4 percent of its peak performance. In comparison, the Xiaomi 14 Civi throttled to a worrisome 40.8 percent of its peak performance in a similar test.

Winner: Realme GT 6T

The handset’s thermals rose up by a cumulative 14.7 degrees after three games (each for 30 minutes). The Xiaomi 14 Civi, on the contrary, saw a 23-degree spike in its thermals after the test.
