Realme has risen as a successful smartphone company in a short span of time. This highly competitive company has introduced a variety of phones lately. Recently the company has launched Realme 8, and Realme 8 Pro. The company has managed to bring a smartphone at every price point till Rs. 20,000 .

The Realme 8 starts at Rs. 14,999 and it is exactly similar to Realme 7 with an AMOLED screen and Realme 7 is exactly Realme 6 Pro with a MediaTek SoC ( not Qualcomm ), and both these models are also still on sale at similar prices. The variant of the Realme 8, which I’ll be reviewing, is the one with 6gb Ram and 128gb internal storage , that costs around Rs.15,999.

It’s time to see how the Realme 8 actually performs, and whether you should buy one or prefer something else

This phone weighs 177 g ( Grams) however feels lighter. It feels good to hold and looks premium. A few features are as under:
