As mentioned, the dual front camera for selfies is a highlight on this device. A pill shaped module holds a 16MP primary sensor and an 8MP ultrawide angle lens that offers a 105° view to take selfies. The quad camera setup in the rear has a 64MP primary shooter, a 12MP telephoto lens, an 8MP ultrawide angle lens and a 2MP depth sensor. A solid 4,300mAh battery with 30W fast charging lends power to the unit.
These specs make the Realme 6 Pro a formidable device in the category.
The Relame 6 has a slightly smaller 6.5inch display with most other features of the Pro version retained, including the 90Hz refresh rate and the full HD+ resolution. The difference is in the protection as there is a Corning Gorilla Glass 3 protection here for the screen. The processor is different; it is the MediaTek, Helio G90T. You get three RAM options, 4GB, 6GB and 8GB and the storage variants of 64GB and 128GB are available in the Realme 6 too.
Coming to the camera section, the same quad camera setup has been retained but the 12MP telephoto lens is replaced with a 2MP depth sensor. The front selfie camera has only one lens, a 16MP shooter. There is no difference in the battery or the fast charging support.
Now, to the pricing. The base Realme 6 4GB/64GB starts at ₹12,999. The 6GB/64GB and 8GB/128GB variants will cost ₹14,999 and ₹15,999 respectively.
The Realme 6 Pro will start at ₹16,999 for the 6GB/64GB variant while the 6GB/128GB and 8GB/128GB RAM/ROM combinations will set you back by ₹17,999 and ₹18,999 respectively.
