Screen Size

The diagonal of the mobile screen in inches. Modern smartphones tend to have screens of 6 inches and above.
Battery Capacity

The battery capacity indicates the duration of use of your mobile without charging.

It is measured in mAh - a larger number usually indicates greater autonomy, always in combination with the usage and features of the device.

For example, a mobile with a 4000 mAh battery lasts about a day with normal use.

With 5000 mAh or more, you comfortably have autonomy for the whole day, even with heavier use (such as video or games).

If you often use your mobile for video, gaming, or work on the go, choose a device with a large battery (5000 mAh and above) for more autonomy and less dependence on the charger!
Rear Camera Lenses

Macro 2MP

The macro lens offers the ability to take photos of objects from very close distances for emphasis on detail. The most common resolutions are 2MP and 5MP.

2MP Depth Sensor

The depth sensor operates in conjunction with the other lenses, helping the camera to focus and create depth-of-field effects by blurring the background. 2. Some mobile phones incorporate this function into their other lenses. They are usually 2-5MP, but the resolution does not need to be taken into account.

Wide Angle 50MP

The wide-angle lens offers a larger field of view than our eyes and is usually the default lens used when opening the camera application. The most common resolution is 12MP.

Description

Perfect in feel

The new Realme 8i features a high-quality finish that offers an exceptional, silky feel and captures the light.

Display with 120 Hz

The 6.6-inch (16.8 cm) LCD IPS technology screen offers impressive image quality with perfect color. The screen, thanks to the FHD+ resolution (2,412 x 1,080 pixels), is extremely sharp, while with a refresh rate of 120Hz (6 levels suitably adjusted for each application), it provides an exceptionally smooth viewing experience. The 180Hz touch sampling rate guarantees immediate response when playing games. Finally, it covers 100% of the DCI-P3 color space for vibrant color.

50 MP Triple AI Camera

On the back of the device, there are three cameras: a high-resolution 50 MP wide-angle camera (with a 5P lens system and a large aperture (f:/1.8) for high performance in low light conditions). The main camera is complemented by a 2 MP B&W camera (for better contrast and perfect bokeh in portraits) and a 2 MP (Macro) camera for stunning close-up shots from a distance of even 4 centimeters.

Selfies with perfect bokeh effect

The device features a front in-display camera for selfies with a resolution of 16 MP (based on a 5-element lens system, 5P), with which you can take perfect portraits with amazing bokeh effect (supports Portrait, AI Beauty, HDR, etc.) to impress your friends and followers on social networks.

5,000mAh and Fast Charge 18W

The massive 5,000mAh battery is sufficient for many hours of use, and thanks to 18W Fast Charge technology, it recharges quickly.

I bought it in June 22 as a cheap alternative to a Xiaomi phone (mainly because my previous phones were Xiaomi and I got tired of the loop of changing every 2 years because even factory reset wasn't enough), so with a little research I came across this one, not many recommended it, many had functional issues and I struggled a bit but I didn't change my mind because it was the best choice within this budget (120-130€) and it hasn't disappointed me. The call quality is clear and the sound is good from both sides, the speaker is satisfactory but could be better. The battery is a beast, it charges even with 18 watts per hour (with 30 watts it takes about 40 minutes to go from 0-100%), the battery saver system doesn't seem to change anything significant but it doesn't drop below 20% very often so it doesn't bother me that much. It lasts around one and a half days with regular use and about 4-5 hours of continuous use. Regarding gaming, don't expect too much, it does its job but it's not a computer or something specifically made for gaming. You can comfortably play basic and "light" games like Pubg and League of Legends: Wild Rift, and the 120Hz (120fps) feature is the cherry on top for those games. As for the camera, I can't have a complete opinion, the 50 (48) megapixels seemed a bit strange at first and it was what I expected, nothing impressive, nothing extraordinary. If you know how to take photos, obviously it will do its job, but it doesn't seem like amazing quality to me. Of course, you can't expect anything better for the price, but it does have pretty good close-up photos, which impressed me. I'm just a bit disappointed by the lack of 0.5 zoom. The HDR, Night mode, AI, 50M, and portrait mode work perfectly fine, even though I haven't used them much, they satisfied me when I "needed" them. As for the selfie camera, it's decent, that's all I can say, I didn't expect anything less or more. I've seen several issues from other users regarding the apps, and based on my extensive use of this phone, I can say that like any Android phone, unfortunately or fortunately, it needs a small reset every now and then after updates because it gets a bit sluggish. Personally, I haven't experienced many "freeze" moments, so I can't say much about that. Proper handling will lead to a proper response. It's a mobile phone, not a NASA computer. As for the storage, I didn't have any issues, I store quite a lot of files and photos without any problem (it might depend on the purpose, you might need to expand the storage with an SD card). The screen is quite good, bright enough, and usually doesn't have that issue where it's too bright at night, as it has its own way of adjusting the brightness even without using automatic brightness. It depends on the time and the environment around you (light sensor), it slightly adjusts the brightness on its own without affecting the settings. Generally, if you are looking for a mobile phone different from Xiaomi for any reason, at a low price, for everyday use, to do its job correctly, then this particular one is for you. Personally, from now on, I see myself with an iPhone.

First time Realme owner and I decided to try it after many Xiaomi phones that burned their motherboards on their own. After almost 1 year of daily use, the phone still flies. The 120Hz screen gives you a fast and nice feeling when scrolling and opening-closing applications without freezing even once, while the battery easily lasts for 2 days. At the price of €145 that I bought it, it is a great value for money and I highly recommend it with closed eyes

Decent overall mobile. The only issue is that it often lowers the call volume on its own and I can't hear who is calling me unless I remember to adjust it again. Also, the screen easily cracks with minor impacts.

This phone is excellent. I have dropped it everywhere for 6 months now and it hasn't had any issues. Occasionally, it freezes a bit, but overall it is exactly what someone looking for a cheap but good phone needs. I recommend someone to get it (128gb)

I have it for less than a year. It has started to freeze. It constantly updates and after each one, something gets disconnected in its function (I don't receive messages/calls on Viber/WhatsApp), it doesn't keep previous tabs open like it did at the beginning, so when I try to make a payment for something and go to the banking app for passwords, etc., all the previous tabs have closed and I can't complete it, it no longer allows me to pin apps to the desktop and I have to search for them within the device. The photos are of very poor quality, nothing like the previous one I had (Xiaomi) which supposedly had a much inferior camera and in general, it has nothing to do with the previous one

While I had searched and read several positive comments, I decided to buy it. Overall, I am satisfied. After a month of use, I have a serious problem with the 4G data connection. It doesn't connect even after 10 restarts and it's really almost useless if you're not in an area with internet access. I don't know if it's a problem with my specific device or a general issue, but I read that other owners are facing the same problem.

After the latest operating system update, the 4G data connection issue was fixed, so for the money, it's a good choice. Upgrade + 1 star

After upgrading to Android 12, there are major issues with the 4G connection. The service is completely useless. Stay away from realme in Greece.

A very good mobile phone, with a very large battery, tremendous resolution and screen, and video. It has a good processor, so it is satisfactorily fast. Finally, it also has a large battery (with fast charging)

For anyone who wants an affordable phone that does it all, I believe this is it. Its positive points: good and fast photo capture, calls, messages, internet browsing, price, weight, and battery life (2 days with moderate use). Its negatives: the screen needs maximum brightness in sunlight, it gets smudged easily, average sound from the speakers, and slight heating during internet browsing with relatively slow touch response. P.S. It comes with an 18w charger and a silicone case in the package

After 3 months of use, I can say the following:
• The battery is still very good, but I feel that its duration is gradually decreasing.
• In the second month, it started freezing on various applications. It sometimes restarts on its own.
• I bought it for 167 euros and I believe it is not worth it because I see it lasting at most one year. Now that it is priced at 140 euros, I think it is worth it mainly for its battery.
• I had an iPhone 6s for 5 years and it never froze even once, while this one freezes almost every day since the first two months. Returning to Apple is certain after this short trial with a cheap Chinese Android.

It is worth the money and more, the battery life is extremely satisfying, as a student with a heavy schedule, no matter how much I use it, it lasts. After 11, I think it goes into night mode and charges slower to avoid overcharging anxiety, the rest of the time it has fast charging. Very ergonomic in all aspects!

Very good. Minimal bloatware - only a few "big" apps that you can simply uninstall if you don't want them. This adds great value to the 4GB memory it has. Impressive how much you can customize the UI. Beautiful device - I don't ask for much, I mainly want it as a phone and occasionally for some photos or a bit of web browsing. I have a laptop and don't really need another device for these tasks. I also got a case in a similar color and it looks great!

At 173 euros, it is very "affordable" for what it offers.
After 1 month of use.
The battery easily lasts for 2 days! The processor is fast enough for social media, basic functions, and games (everything a average user needs). The camera is decent (neither bad nor excellent), but it struggles in low light conditions. The screen is very good, as well as the speaker. The package includes a high-quality hard case (made of silicone).

As for the selfie camera, it's decent, that's all I can say, I didn't expect anything less or more. I've seen several issues from other users regarding the apps, and based on my extensive use of this phone, I can say that like any Android phone, unfortunately or fortunately, it needs a small reset every now and then after updates because it gets a bit sluggish. Personally, I haven't experienced many "freeze" moments, so I can't say much about that. Proper handling will lead to a proper response. It's a mobile phone, not a NASA computer. As for the storage, I didn't have any issues, I store quite a lot of files and photos without any problem (it might depend on the purpose, you might need to expand the storage with an SD card). The screen is quite good, bright enough, and usually doesn't have that issue where it's too bright at night, as it has its own way of adjusting the brightness even without using automatic brightness. It depends on the time and the environment around you (light sensor), it slightly adjusts the brightness on its own without affecting the settings. Generally, if you are looking for a mobile phone different from Xiaomi for any reason, at a low price, for everyday use, to do its job correctly, then this particular one is for you. Personally, from now on, I see myself with an iPhone.

First time Realme owner and I decided to try it after many Xiaomi phones that burned their motherboards on their own. After almost 1 year of daily use, the phone still flies. The 120Hz screen gives you a fast and nice feeling when scrolling and opening-closing applications without freezing even once, while the battery easily lasts for 2 days. At the price of €145 that I bought it, it is a great value for money and I highly recommend it with closed eyes

Decent overall mobile. The only issue is that it often lowers the call volume on its own and I can't hear who is calling me unless I remember to adjust it again. Also, the screen easily cracks with minor impacts.

This phone is excellent. I have dropped it everywhere for 6 months now and it hasn't had any issues. Occasionally, it freezes a bit, but overall it is exactly what someone looking for a cheap but good phone needs. I recommend someone to get it (128gb)

I have it for less than a year. It has started to freeze. It constantly updates and after each one, something gets disconnected in its function (I don't receive messages/calls on Viber/WhatsApp), it doesn't keep previous tabs open like it did at the beginning, so when I try to make a payment for something and go to the banking app for passwords, etc., all the previous tabs have closed and I can't complete it, it no longer allows me to pin apps to the desktop and I have to search for them within the device. The photos are of very poor quality, nothing like the previous one I had (Xiaomi) which supposedly had a much inferior camera and in general, it has nothing to do with the previous one

While I had searched and read several positive comments, I decided to buy it. Overall, I am satisfied. After a month of use, I have a serious problem with the 4G data connection. It doesn't connect even after 10 restarts and it's really almost useless if you're not in an area with internet access. I don't know if it's a problem with my specific device or a general issue, but I read that other owners are facing the same problem.

After the latest operating system update, the 4G data connection issue was fixed, so for the money, it's a good choice. Upgrade + 1 star

After upgrading to Android 12, there are major issues with the 4G connection. The service is completely useless. Stay away from realme in Greece.

A very good mobile phone, with a very large battery, tremendous resolution and screen, and video. It has a good processor, so it is satisfactorily fast. Finally, it also has a large battery (with fast charging)

For anyone who wants an affordable phone that does it all, I believe this is it. Its positive points: good and fast photo capture, calls, messages, internet browsing, price, weight, and battery life (2 days with moderate use). Its negatives: the screen needs maximum brightness in sunlight, it gets smudged easily, average sound from the speakers, and slight heating during internet browsing with relatively slow touch response. P.S. It comes with an 18w charger and a silicone case in the package

After 3 months of use, I can say the following:
• The battery is still very good, but I feel that its duration is gradually decreasing.
• In the second month, it started freezing on various applications. It sometimes restarts on its own.
• I bought it for 167 euros and I believe it is not worth it because I see it lasting at most one year. Now that it is priced at 140 euros, I think it is worth it mainly for its battery.
• I had an iPhone 6s for 5 years and it never froze even once, while this one freezes almost every day since the first two months. Returning to Apple is certain after this short trial with a cheap Chinese Android.

The mobile is perfect for its price, currently costing 140€, and I can't find anything better at this price. The only downside is the IPS screen, but it's justified at this price

It is worth the money and more, the battery life is extremely satisfying, as a student with a heavy schedule, no matter how much I use it, it lasts. After 11, I think it goes into night mode and charges slower to avoid overcharging anxiety, the rest of the time it has fast charging. Very ergonomic in all aspects!

Very good. Minimal bloatware - only a few "big" apps that you can simply uninstall if you don't want them. This adds great value to the 4GB memory it has. Impressive how much you can customize the UI. Beautiful device - I don't ask for much, I mainly want it as a phone and occasionally for some photos or a bit of web browsing. I have a laptop and don't really need another device for these tasks. I also got a case in a similar color and it looks great!

At 173 euros, it is very "affordable" for what it offers.
After 1 month of use.
The battery easily lasts for 2 days! The processor is fast enough for social media, basic functions, and games (everything a average user needs). The camera is decent (neither bad nor excellent), but it struggles in low light conditions. The screen is very good, as well as the speaker. The package includes a high-quality hard case (made of silicone).

I bought it in June 22 as a cheap alternative to a Xiaomi phone (mainly because my previous phones were Xiaomi and I got tired of the loop of changing every 2 years because even factory reset wasn't enough), so with a little research I came across this one, not many recommended it, many had functional issues and I struggled a bit but I didn't change my mind because it was the best choice within this budget (120-130€) and it hasn't disappointed me. The call quality is clear and the sound is good from both sides, the speaker is satisfactory but could be better. The battery is a beast, it charges even with 18 watts per hour (with 30 watts it takes about 40 minutes to go from 0-100%), the battery saver system doesn't seem to change anything significant but it doesn't drop below 20% very often so it doesn't bother me that much. It lasts around one and a half days with regular use and about 4-5 hours of continuous use. Regarding gaming, don't expect too much, it does its job but it's not a computer or something specifically made for gaming. You can comfortably play basic and "light" games like Pubg and League of Legends: Wild Rift, and the 120Hz (120fps) feature is the cherry on top for those games. As for the camera, I can't have a complete opinion, the 50 (48) megapixels seemed a bit strange at first and it was what I expected, nothing impressive, nothing extraordinary. If you know how to take photos, obviously it will do its job, but it doesn't seem like amazing quality to me. Of course, you can't expect anything better for the price, but it does have pretty good close-up photos, which impressed me. I'm just a bit disappointed by the lack of 0.5 zoom. The HDR, Night mode, AI, 50M, and portrait mode work perfectly fine, even though I haven't used them much, they satisfied me when I "needed" them. As for the selfie camera, it's decent, that's all I can say, I didn't expect anything less or more.

Personally, I haven't experienced many "freeze" moments, so I can't say much about that. Proper handling will lead to a proper response. It's a mobile phone, not a NASA computer. As for the storage, I didn't have any issues, I store quite a lot of files and photos without any problem (it might depend on the purpose, you might need to expand the storage with an SD card). The screen is quite good, bright enough, and usually doesn't have that issue where it's too bright at night, as it has its own way of adjusting the brightness even without using automatic brightness.
