It seems like realme doesn’t wanna stop releasing new phones! We just got three new C-series phones in the Philippines last month. Now, realme launched the successors of the realme 6 Series: the realme 7 Series!
The realme 7 Pro Goes Back to AMOLED!
The realme 7 Pro is the direct successor of the realme 6 Pro. Unlike the latter though, the 7 Pro trades the 90Hz IPS LCD display for a 60Hz Super AMOLED display. realme says that this decision was based on customer feedback where they preferred a 60Hz AMOLED over a 90Hz LCD. I personally don’t see this as a big deal seeing there are people who don’t even notice that change. (Although it’s a different story with 120Hz or more.) We also have a new design that’s inspired by the mirror space in nature.
Here are the highlight features of the Pro model of the realme 7 Series:
Another thing that surprised me is that the 7 Pro has the same Qualcomm Snapdragon 720G processor as the 6 Pro! You would think there would be an upgrade in that department though. Good thing there is other stuff to be excited about! This includes this phone’s hero feature: the 65W SuperDart Charge technology! It lets you charge the 7 Pro from 0 to 100 in 34 minutes!

realme 7: Probably The Better Deal?
While the Pro model saw weird changes, the realme 7 has a good set of minor upgrades. Two of its hero features are the same quad rear cameras as the 7 Pro and the new MediaTek Helio G95 processor. We still have the same 90Hz IPS LCD display as the realme 6.
I’m also loving that both the 7 and 7 Pro have a similar design yet have distinct colors! There’s also nothing wrong with getting a bigger 5000 mAh battery. The last time we saw it in a number series phone was realme 5.

Any News on When These Arrive in the Philipppines?
No word just yet on that! Judging by last year’s realme 5 timeline though, we’ll probably see something from realme Philippines sooner than you think!
What do you think of the realme 7 series? Are they worth upgrading over the realme 6 series? Sound off in the comments!
The specs are really impressive. Many people got confused nowadays when it comes to choosing the right smartphone. The specs are really good for mobile gamers and video streaming too!
I am not a techie so I couldn’t really notice that difference between which LCD is better as long as it is clear? Anyway, RealMe is a brand that I constantly hear from people around me and some of my friends even bought these. Your review is once again very detailed. Thanks!
Well, this is probably the reason why the iPhone hasn’t fully committed to having 120 Hz AMOLED yet. The technology isn’t perfect yet. Oh well…
I should have read this first before I got myself a phone. Haha. I accidentally got myself a RealMe back up phone this month and I love it so far. I’m still not to it, though, but I’m getting the hang of it. I just love that it is allowing me to use apps I could no longer use on my iPhone. 🙂
Cool specs I see here! This is awesome!
I really love this website kay I can get a glimpse of the latest affordable mobile phones. I helps us readers who are just canvassing for now. haha, hays, money, where are you?! andami na nila! nice ang specs.
I’m pretty excited about what RealMe has to offer. They’ve been bombarded with nice specs despite its low price. Interesting times, indeed!
