The price gulf between the Pro & Pro+ is huge, nearly $100/Rs.7000!!
Simply not worth that premium imo, if it started at 22/23k, it would've been justifiable (or if the 8/128 sold for 25k basically).

And only 5 5G bands here in India is not the worst but far from ideal, heck my X7 Max has 7 bands and even that's only the middle ground with others offering 11,13 or even more bands!!

Let's see how the processing handles that beast sensor though, because I doubt it would be as good as they claim it to be. Plus the fact that it's running a Dimensity chipset doesn't inspire too much confidence from what I've personally seen between my mom's 7 Pro & my own X7 Max (especially when it comes to the viewfinder)
And the fact that it doesn't support stabilization in 4k (acc. to one youtuber at least) is again a deal-breaker. How does it not have OIS enabled in 4k is beyond me! Even my dad's 8.1 can do some stabilization in 4k so there's that!

              Dont use word "plus" when refresh rate under the pro varian.... LOL realme

                Too expensive lol

                That's what y'all get for wanting AMOLED plus chip shortage

                All legendary price to performance phones like the poco F1 , the x3 pro, mi 6 and original redmi note series

                Had LCD panels now you guys beg for AMOLED watch as the prices go up and the processors get weaker

                  Jimmy Potter, 16 Feb 2022Bro, the processor is better. SD 695 > SD 720.Is that enough to trade in for
                  108mp cam, amoled display, less weight (195gm vs 176gm of 8 pro), 4k recording, 50w fast charging?

                      Lol, these are prices way too high for what they offer. The competition is way too high, nord 2 is available for just 3k more, xiaomi 11 lite ne 5g is only worse in main camera and better in everything else. Just a bit higher (10k) u start hitting samsung s20 fe 5g which is better than anything below that. Iqoo 7 is also right there.
                      The pro+ should be 20k to justify what it's giving.

                        Samsung A52S is by far the best phone under €400. Xiaomi and realme have completely lost it

                          Why do these feel like dead on arrival/DOA compared to their own GT offerings, IQOO's offerings, Xiaomi and Oneplus??

                          The prices are off the roof with the Pro+ model.

                              Oh, they shifted a segment and that's a very tough segment. BBK's own iqoo has very good offerings at the price. Just having a great sensor isn't good enough.

                                  I prefer OnePlus Nord 2 to realme 9 pro+ because 16mp selfie camera are usually really bad in comparison to the 32mp ones.

                                      I love the Pro+ variant but its way pricier for me. No complaints about the phone. Its a complete package.
