The Realme 5i is affordable!
Realme wants to start the year with a bang by launching the Realme 5i in the Philippines. The smartphone is one of the newest budget smartphones in town as we got here a design and specifications that are very similar to the Realme 5 that we’ve reviewed before but this time, it will be cheaper with some changes on the smartphone.
The Realme 5i still have the features that we love on the Realme 5 – a quad-camera lens, a Snapdragon 665 processor, a large display, and a large 5000mAh battery but they’ve downgraded the selfie camera to 8MP. We still have here a 3GB RAM which is decent enough for an entry-level smartphone and then there’s the 64GB storage which is enough for most users.
