At Metacritic, which assigns a weighted average score out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, Relayted received an average score of 78, based on 13 reviews, indicating "generally favorable reviews".

Steven Hyden of The A.V. Club gave the album a grade of B+, calling it "a record fueled by the soft-rock solipsism of 10cc and loads of antidepressants." Barry Nicolson of The Skinny gave the album 4 stars out of 5, saying: "Dipping its toe in everything from soft-rock to hip-hop to R&B and sixties soul, the songs all manage the trick of sounding roughly the same, completely unique, and uniformly superb."

NME placed Relayted at number 13 on the "75 Best Albums of 2010" list.{{cite web|url=https://www.nme.com/photos/75-best-albums-of-2010-1415713|title=75 best albums of 2010|work=NME|date=November 22, 2010|access-date=April 17, 2017}} Pitchfork placed "The Gaudy Side of Town" at number 99 on the "Top 100 Tracks of 2010" list.{{cite web|url=https://pitchfork.com/features/lists-and-guides/7895-the-top-100-tracks-of-2010/?page=1|title=The Top 100 Tracks of 2010 (Page 1 of 10)|work=Pitchfork|date=December 13, 2010|access-date=April 17, 2017}}
