Realme is on a roll. The brand has been launching smartphones left, right and centre and it seems like that isn’t going to stop soon. The latest to join the heap is the Realme 8 and 8 Pro. The Realme 8 is meant for the mid-range market in the 4G smartphones category. The smartphone comes with a promising set of features and comes with a number of gaming support specs like the choice of processor, RAM and the big battery. The Realme 8 has an AMOLED display and features a 6.40-inch touchscreen with a resolution of 1080x2400 pixels. The Realme 8 measures 160.60 x 73.90 x 7.99mm (height x width x thickness) and weighs 177.00 grams. The smartphone was launched in two colour variants of Cyber Black and Cyber Silver colours.

Now performance. The Realme 8 is powered by an octa-core MediaTek Helio G95 processor, which I’m seeing after quite some time. And this is coupled with a 4GB RAM. The Realme 8 is priced at Rs. 14,999 for the 4GB RAM + 128GB storage variant, Rs. 15,999 for the 6GB RAM + 128GB storage variant, and Rs. 16,999 for the 8GB RAM + 128GB storage model. All of them are expandable via microSD card with a dedicated slot. The phone has a 5000mAh battery and quad cameras too.
