Realme 7i Review
Design and Display
Realme has outfitted the 7i with a split-tone design. This time, the rear smirks a shiny mirror finish. When I took the phone in my hand, I realized that the texture is just too good.
The phone is just 188 grams, it is comfortably handy. The size of the phone is decently okay and it does not bother anyone. It can be carried easily without taking a lot of space.
The case evens out the (64MP quad) camera bump, leaves a cutout for the fingerprint reader, and doesn’t affect the tactility of the right side buttons. With 2 SIMs + 1 micro-SD slot, a USB-C dock, 3.5mm jack, and phone’s speaker, it does not disappoint anyone.

Processor
Qualcomm Snapdragon 662: The realme 7i is powered by the octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 662 SoC with 8GB of LPDDR4X RAM bringing a powerful experience to our users.
Camera
Realme 7i is loaded with a 16MP shooter on the front and a 64MP AI Quad cam at the back. The camera app is clearly arranged and simple to use. You get options to shoot portraits, night mode, full-64MP, and videos right from the main screen. Further treats like macro mode, Google Lens, slow-mo, time-lapse, and pro mode are nestled in a separate screen.
My wife is a brilliant photographer and she has commended the phone’s camera when she clicked a few random shots. The clarity of the lens is really wonderful. The depth of field while taking the picture is hassle free and all camera lovers will forget other phones’ cameras once they use this phone.
Under sufficient light, the camera does a reasonable job of capturing the frame. The well-lit results with warm tones are good for socials.
Turn on the AI Dazzle mode to vibe up the saturation. And for a wide perspective, use the 8MP ultra-wide mode.
Battery
It has got 5000mAh battery, a 720p display and power efficiency of 11nm-based SD662, you could expect the phone to run longer than a day if you are working from home especially and does not have too much work on phone but otherwise also the battery life is much better than other of it’s contemporaries.
