Realme 8 5G arrives with Dimensity 700 chip and 90Hz LCD

21 April 2021
The main attraction here compared to the Realme 8 (4G) is the next-gen connectivity. But the Realme 7 5G might be a problem.

"Amoled?that's to expensive." haha

        If I was one of their phones, I'd definitely be leaping off every high building I could find. They haven't a clue. How can they hope to compete with Xiaomi. Their phones are underspecced and overpriced. Plus they sure is ugly.

            Anonymous, 21 Apr 2021So it's a triple camera setup, which is supposed to lo... moresingle camera setup won't appeal to the market.


            hence they keep spending their $5 on useless camera sensors, adding up to the price of the phone itself.

            they call dual and single camera setup outdated, but its literally their sh*-&y a$s "quad" cameras that only two are usable with the other two being utterly useless.

              Dear Realme, Please print photo of Madhav Sir on back instead of ugly DARE_TO_LEAP logo. Nobody want to be inspired with phone in 2021

                So it's a triple camera setup, which is supposed to look like a quad camera setup but one of the "cameras" is literally a fake circle with "AI" written on it, the other is black and white sensor so it's equally as useful as the fake AI circle, and the third is is, well, a macro sensor.

                At this point, why not just stick with a single camera? It's less cringy.

                      Best thing about this is.. — It doesn't have that eeuuww🤢 Realme's "Dare to Leap" sticker at the back..

                      Other than that.. It is good as garbage

                        Flo, 21 Apr 2021Realme lie with 1000 nits peak brightness on realme 8 and 8... moreIt's not realme it's just OLED market manipulation/propaganda

                        For OLED screens they have 1 white pixel turned on with the other 99% on black then measure its max brightness

                        They get 1000nits and tell the masses it's 1000 peak brightness it technically true ..

                        But this is very effective against people that worship OLED blindly


                        And despite this article potentially misleading/implying a down grade.. LCD panels actually advertise most times it's actual brightness full screen and that brightness doesn't damage the screen or get worse /dimmer over the months

                          how can it be considered next to the pocophone lineup?

                            Dimensity soc, suck because google camera port does'nt work well. Snapdragon soc is more compatible.

                              Realme lie with 1000 nits peak brightness on realme 8 and 8 pro. It's just number to do believe.

                                Anonymous, 21 Apr 2021265 euros for a severely downgraded model compared the 7 5G... moreBBK hasn't really got anything to do with it. They are just a holding company not involved in the day to day running of their phone brands. Probably Realme making the decisions themselves maybe with some possible input from their owner Oppo

                                  Realme is trying so hard to get to the bottom. I guess it's the new normal now.

                                    $320 for a cheap phone like this?


                                    bro i could literally buy an iphone x at that price despite having no 5g.

                                    or even an older flagship around the same price with much better everything even without a high refresh rate

                                      wtf is this.

                                      no ultrawide cam?

                                      then no wonder why realme keeps getting kicked in the arse by xiaomi.
