Now in a hypercompetitive mid-range smartphone landscape increasingly defined by specs and numbers, the Realme 10 Pro 5G asserts itself as a breath of fresh air within that is actually a functional phone that follows usability in the real world over benchmark scores. This is not another mid-range chasing specs, but a professionally built phone aimed at showing us how affordable 5G-smartphones should cater the real world needs of everyday users in different scenarios.
First Impression : Premium but with a hefty Practical Design
The Realme 10 Pro 5G totally stands out from the moment you remove the box and start treating its thoughtful design approach. The slim 7.8mm profile and the rounded back panel provides premium-feeling, yet practical durability. Matte is prohibitively finger-prone compared to glossy in my experience, and the tiny camera module itself looks just as stylish as one would want when fashion goes wherever it wants.
One being that the weight distribution is very well-balanced (just at 190g) to not feel overburdened for one-handed use; even with the 6.72 inch display. Even the placement of the side mounted fingerprint sensor shows meticulous planning — placed optimally for your thumb and still not impeding on the usability of button.
Real-World Usage focused Performance
Under the hood, the Snapdragon 695 5G just does what the majority of users will need – reactive and efficient performance as opposed too excessive power. With its 6nm architecture may not compare to top-end flagships, but Realme is well aware of the day-to-day use case with its battery and thermal management.
Well well, the performance curve deserves to be praised for something. Apps load rapidly and the phone never heats up under stress, so you are never left hanging but neither does the system ever feel bogged down as a result. This clever optimization of the phone not only makes the user experience better but highly plays a part in that amazing battery life the phone comes with. Having high-power and battery saver modes provides the flexibility to one too does not confuse user.
Display Technology That is Just Right
We are not here just to make the spec numbers look big — Yes, that 6.72 inches 120Hz FHD+ from my Realme GT feels good; there is also Realme’s awareness of when and where you look at what it is.
Switching between 30Hz/60Hz/90Hz/120Hz adaptive refresh rate technology automatically according to content making both smoother and save battery.
The display calibration bothered me greatly What I genuinely appreciated though was full on colors that were alive, yet natural and had excellent sunlight readability as well as less blue light emission for nights viewing – two approaches to show some real worlds understanding of their user scenarios.
Camera System To Capture REAL?
Why it matters to us — 108MP + 2MP dual-camera setup promises solid, repeatable performance:
(Double the sensor size, uses 3x in-sensor zoom for 12MP pixel-binning photos)
**Night mode **, makes that in 2–3 sec
In portrait mode with good edge detection
1080p stable EIS video
A special mention to the image processing, True color of photos are kept and no dynamic range loss like in this segment. I am surprised by how natural the 16MP front-facing camera even at OnePlus offers.
A Battery Honoured To Respect Daily Use
Realme, following its practical bent demonstrates with the 5000mAH battery and 33W fast charging:
- 7-8 hours of SOT with mixed task

The issue of usage power to learn from your battery management system, and the included power adapter charges other devices with USB-PD (can be used for a friendly touch, actual multi device tethering)
