realme P2 Pro 256GB Expert Review Summary
Expert Rating:
7.5/10
Verdict
The Realme P2 Pro is a decent buy for its price, with a bunch of contemporary features such as striking design, vibrant display, respectable performance, and fast charging. However, it lacks any standout features that set it apart from its competitors. Additionally, its camera performance could use some improvement.
Pros
- Striking design
- Good display
- Decent performance
- Rapid charging speeds
Cons
- Cameras need improvements
- Lots of pre-installed apps
- No standout feature
Design and display
+
The Realme P2 Pro design looks appealing. Though not drastically different from its predecessor P1 Pro, the handset grabs your attention with its cushion-shaped camera module, which features contrasting hexagon borders. The module protrudes, preventing the phone from lying flat on surfaces, but its design prevents wobbling, ensuring a stable and comfortable typing experience (if you type with the phone kept on the table). The model we received comes in a calming green colour which pairs well with the gold-coloured finish around the camera module and body. The phone features a textured back with a brush-stroke pattern, providing both a good in-hand feel and resistance to fingerprints and smudges.

The Realme P2 Pro sports a dual-camera setup comprising a 50MP OIS Sony LYT-600 sensor and an 8MP ultra-wide lens. This is paired with Realme's AI photography architecture, HYPERIMAGE+, introduced with the Realme 13 Pro series earlier this year. To give you a perspective, the architecture integrates optics with image algorithms and image editing tools, backed by AI, to boost clarity and dynamic range. The AI is also said to enhance portraits, skin tones, and group photos. The front camera of the phone is a 32MP snapper for selfies and video calling.

Performance and software
+
Under the hood, the Realme P2 Pro rocks the Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 SoC, which has already made its way to several other mid-range smartphones. The handset is available in three RAM and storage configurations: 8GB + 128GB, 12 GB + 256GB, and 12GB + 512GB. We received the top-end 512GB storage variant for review, which scored 6,70,441 on AnTuTu. This performance is in line with other smartphones using the same chipset and is impressive for a non-gaming device. Similarly, on Geekbench, the phone scores a modest 866 on the single-core and 2,930 on the multi-core tests. The handset also performs decently under intense load, per the Burnout CPU throttle test where the performance dropped to just 76.4 percent.

Battery and charging
+
The Realme P2 Pro features a 5,200mAh battery, offering around 200mAh more than the typical capacity in its class. Despite this, it performed modestly in the PCMark battery test, achieving an average of 10 hours and 25 minutes. The test, which simulates a range of tasks, runs until the battery depletes from 100 percent to 20 percent. Moreover, on our 30-minute YouTube video streaming test, the handset consumed 4 percent battery life - equivalent to 208mAh. In our 30-minute gaming test, which included BGMI, Call of Duty, and Real Racing 3, the device used 20 percent of its battery in total.
