Verdict

So, where does that leave us? Well, the Realme 8i retails for Rs 13,999 and Rs 15,999 for the 4GB and 6GB RAM variants respectively. For the price, the smartphone brings good performance, a big 120Hz display, and solid battery backup to the mix.

Pros

Expansive 120Hz display
Performs well
Good battery life
Good selfie camera

Cons

50MP sensor oversaturates images
Helio G96 needs further optimisation
Lots of bloatware
