Realme X50 Pro: Make Way For A Specs Beast

Very little is missing on this reasonably priced feature-packed premium smartphone

For ₹37,999 you get more on the Realme X50 Pro than you’ll know what to do with. Oppo sub-brand Realme, has been truly coming into its own by doing what Xiaomi once did: offer a surprise package of unarguable value for money. It’s a tough thing to pull off again and again, but with the X50 Pro, they’ve surely done it again.

The top talking point is that it’s the first 5G phone in India, but of course, there’s no sign of 5G and won’t be for a few years. In fact we’re lucky if we get decent 4G connectivity. So why would you want to pay for 5G?

Except that you aren’t. Incredibly, while the 5G is mostly on paper (unless you travel to a place where it works) there’s so much else that it doesn’t matter. In the end, you’re certainly not being asked to pay for the 5G because of what all the rest you get.
