Realme GT 8 Pro Summary

The Realme GT 8 Pro has a brand-new design which uses a new organosilicon environmentally-friendly material for its rear panel with the Urban Blue finish. The phone looks unique, feels premium and includes premium features like an IP69 rating and wireless charging.

Its display is plenty sharp and also gets very bright, which is useful when viewing movies or playing games outdoors. The display is also very fast and users can take advantage of its maximum refresh rate thanks to a secondary AI chip.

Camera performance is pretty good, but this is mainly limited to the new periscopic telephoto camera. Video recording quality if fine in daylight but not the best in low light.

The phone has a massive battery, which easily lasts beyond a day of casual use. Wired charging is pretty fast and the phone also has fast wireless charging.
