At the beginning of June, Realme, a brand owned by the Oppo group, landed in Spain with the Realme 3 Pro, a model whose characteristics surpassed those of models such as the Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 and the recently presented Xiaomi Mi A3. Two months later the company launches two new terminals that complete the brand's current portfolio in terms of the mid-range. We are talking about the Realme 5 and the Realme 5 Pro, two devices whose characteristics and price make them debate again with the Xiaomi models mentioned above.
Realme 5 Pro: four cameras and Snapdragon 712 per flag
The highest-end model comes as the main alternative to the Xiaomi Mi 9T, a model that is currently sold in official stores for 329 euros.
Being a subsidiary brand of Oppo and OnePlus, the appearance of the Realme 5 Pro inherits a good part of the characteristics of the OnePlus 7 and 7 Pro. Comprised of a 6.3-inch IPS screen with Full HD + resolution, it has a design based in the now traditional notch in the shape of a drop of water, in addition to a rear made of glass with a fingerprint sensor and four cameras.
Inside we find a Snapdragon 712 processor along with 4, 6 and 8 GB of RAM and 64 and 128 GB of internal storage under the UFS 2.1 specification. But undoubtedly the strong point of the device comes from the hand of the photographic section, a section that is made up of four 48, 8, 2 and 2 megapixel cameras with 119º wide angle and macro lenses and a focal aperture f / 1.7, f / 2.25, f / 2.4 and f / 2.4 in each of the sensors that make up the cameras.
It should be noted that the main sensor is based on the well-known Sony IMX 586, a model present in terminals such as the OnePlus 7 and 7 Pro. For its part, the front camera consists of a single 16 megapixel sensor and f / 2.0 focus aperture.
The rest of the features consist of a 4,045 mAh battery with 20 W fast charge, Bluetooth 5.0, WiFi compatible with all bands. ColorOS in its version 6.0 based on Android 9 Pie is the system that we find under the hood of the Realme 5 Pro.
Realme 5: 5,000 mAh battery at the expense of processor and cameras
Along with the Realme 5 Pro we find the Realme 5, the economic variant of the mid-range that arrives with a more restrained feature sheet and a differential aspect with respect to its namesake: the battery. A battery that consists of no less than 5,000 mAh and that drinks from the same fast charging system as the 5 Pro.
Another differential feature of the Realme 5 is its size, 6.5 inches. The bad news is that the resolution is HD + (1,600 x 720 pixels), which should give us a number of pixels per inch well below what we consider recommended.
The rest of the characteristics also go through the scissors. In summary, we find a Snapdragon 665 processor along with 3 and 4 GB of RAM and 32 and 64 GB of internal storage. In the photographic section, the Realme 5 drinks from the same four cameras as its counterpart, except for the main sensor, which in this case uses a 12 megapixel camera and focal aperture f / 1.8.
As for the front camera, it consists of a 13 megapixel sensor and focal aperture f / 2.2. Of course, it has ColorOS 6 as the main operating system.
Price and availability of the Realme 5 and 5 Pro
At the moment, the two terminals have been presented in India, so it is unknown if they will eventually arrive in Spain. As for the official price in your country of origin, we find the following roadmap:
- Realme 5 Pro 4 and 64 GB: 176 euros to change
