Realme announced the Realme 6 and 6 Pro six months ago, and today, the company launched their successors, dubbed Realme 7 and Realme 7 Pro, respectively. They come with improved cameras, bigger batteries, and faster charging. The pair’s panel also flaunts a new design, which Realme says is inspired by the mirror space in nature.

Realme 7 Pro
The Realme 7 Pro powered by the same Snapdragon 720G SoC found on the 6 Pro, but it brings in some solid upgrades over its predecessor in some other departments.
The most interesting side is the 65W SuperDart charging, which is currently only available on some of the company’s more premium X series models. Realme claims the 7 Pro’s 4,500 mAh battery is filled from 0 to 100% in 34 minutes.
The 7 Pro comes with a 6.4-inch Super AMOLED panel with FullHD+ resolution and refresh rate of 60Hz. Realme says the decision drop the refresh rate from 90Hz (on 6 Pro) was taken considering the feedback of its customers, who preferred a 60Hz AMOLED screen over a 90Hz LCD panel. As an added bonus, you will get Always-on Display and an in-display fingerprint scanner on the 7 Pro as opposed to the side-mounted one that came with its predecessor.
The Realme 6 Pro came with a total of six cameras – two on the front and four at the back. The 7 Pro has one less, as the company dropped the 8MP ultrawide angle front-facing unit, but replaced the main 16MP selfie camera on the 6 Pro with 32MP on the 7 Pro.
There are some changes to the quad camera setup on the back as well. Realme has dropped the 12MP telephoto unit in favor of a 2MP depth sensor, and while it did retain the 8MP ultrawide and 2MP macro units, the primary camera now uses Sony’s newer 64MP IMX682 sensor.
The Realme 7 Pro, like the 6 Pro, comes with Dolby Atmos, but this time it comes with stereo speakers – that’s yet another feature that trickled down from Realme’s more premium smartphones to the number series.
