Realme 5i is a renewed Realme 5 with a new design but old specs
Realme’s growth in the smartphone market is appreciable and it has mostly to do with the enormous number of phones they launched last year. In 2019, Realme held a launch event in India almost every month, and it has kicked off 2020 with another launch in the country. Realme just announced another budget smartphone – the Realme 5i – in India for a price of ₹8,999.
The Realme 5i may be marketed as a new smartphone but it is identical to the Realme 5, which was launched back in August 2018. The only refresh on the phone is the new “Sunrise” design of the plastic back, which gives the phone a more premium and refined look. The Realme 5i comes in two colors – blue and green – and the gradient in both the color variants looks like sun rays emanating from one the corners at the bottom. The back panel also comes with an anti-fingerprint coating to keep smudges away.
All of the specifications from the Realme 5 remain unchanged. The Realme 5i comes with a Snapdragon 665 SoC, 4GB of RAM, and 64GB of storage. It features a 6.52-inch HD+ LCD display with a dewdrop notch. Additionally, it comes with quad cameras on the back including a 12MP primary sensor, an 8MP wide-angle camera, a 2MP macro camera, and a 2MP depth sensor. Notably, while the Realme 5 has a 13MP selfie camera, the one on the Realme 5i is only 8MP.
