Realme’s recent launches have given us two really amazing mid-range devices. The Realme 8i has the features to be a powerful mid-range gaming device. First of all the display is great. The smartphone features a 6.6-inch display with a 120Hz refresh rate and a 180Hz touch sampling rate. The display is also teased to have a hole-punch design to accommodate a selfie camera sensor in the front. On the part of optics, the Realme 8i carries a triple rear camera setup that has a 50-megapixel primary Samsung S5KJN1 sensor with an f/1.8 five-piece lens which I think is my favourite aspect of the smartphone.

As I said, this smartphone has the potential to become a go to for the gaming enthusiasts. Realme 8i smartphone is powered by an octa-core Mediatek Helio G96 SoC. The chipset is coupled with up to 6GB of LPDDR4x RAM. The 6GB RAM version of the phone also supports 5GB Virtual RAM that enhances multitasking by using the phone’s free storage. The Realme 8i comes with up to 128GB of onboard storage that supports expansion via a microSD card (up to 256GB) through a dedicated slot. There is a massive 5,000mAh battery on the Realme 8i that supports 18W fast charging. For the starting price of 14k i think Realme has offered a pretty well-packaged device!
