Realme’s latest number series comes in two models: the realme 8 and realme 8 Pro. Both are sleek and slim, with sides that are curved for a more natural grip. While the 8 Pro is being marketed as a smartphone designed primarily for photography enthusiasts and content creators, the 8 is being touted as a phone for gaming. We take a look at the latter.
Instead of a vertical camera array, realme 8 has a square camera module housing the 64MP main lens, 8MP ultrawide, 2MP macro, and 2MP depth sensor. Photos taken with ample lighting have a good amount of detail and decent colors.
Low-light photography is a hit or miss. Depending on the amount of light available, photos come out either grainy, with excessive sharpening, or passable.
