Well, the Chinese smartphone makers seems to be pretty serious about the smartphone markets. The Realme, which is kind of new competitor in the market, has got no patience at all. The company is known for cheap but good smartphones, now, they have come up with another budget smartphone with way better specs and features, Realme 5 and Realme 5 Pro.
Starting with the design, the devices looks pretty sleek. With a notch on the top, which I hate the most, the regular version has bigger size of 6.5 inch, whereas the Pro version has 6.3 inch screen. Similarly, both devices has triple camera, with different sensors on the back. Both device will be available in Crystal Purple and Crystal Blue color options.
Realme 5 and Realme 5 Pro Price and availability
Talking about the pricing, the Realme 5 is priced at INR Rs. 9999 only, whereas the Realme 5 Pro is priced at INR Rs. 13,999 only. These devices will be available from September 4, 2019 in India. Hopefully, the device will also arrive in Nepal, at a reasonable price.
