Sagar, 25 March 2021

Realme introduced its Realme 8 series yesterday, which includes the Realme 8 and Realme 8 Pro. Neither of those offers 5G connectivity, but the company said a 5G-compatible version of the vanilla 8 is on the way and it has now been certified by Thailand's NBTC.

The Thai certifying authority doesn't reveal any Realme 8 5G specifications but tells us the smartphone sports model designation RMX3241. The 4G variant comes with model code RMX3085.

I'd say, just buy the Realme 7, I'm currently using it and it works just fine. I'd even say that the Realme 8 is a worse phone than 7

Realme by writing the slogan "Dare to Leap" on the back of their mobiles, destroy it. Also some cheap Chinese cases put their brand name on the back, and other slogans. So I find it just as tawdry as those cheap cases.

Good to go with poco x3. The 6gb/64gb variant just selling it on 14,499. Nowadays 4gb is not enough for smartphone. Atleast go with 6gb ram variant. Poco x3 give good value to performance in this price range
