After weeks of teasing and hyping everyone, Realme Philippines finally introduced their latest midrange smartphone in the country, the Realme 5 Pro.
For those who haven’t heard about this device yet, the Realme 5 Pro will try to offer more than the price that you’ve been asked for.
It’s powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 712 octa-core processor, up to 8GB of RAM, 128GB of fast UFS 2.1 storage, and a 4,035mAh battery with 20W VOOC 3.0 fast charging.
Realme is also stepping it up further by putting four rear cameras on this thing, led by a 48-megapixel Sony IMX586 sensor. It also has a flashy design and an airtight sealed body for splash resistance. You can learn more about this device in our Realme 5 Pro review.
