Editorial report

Realme 12 Pro 8 GB / 256 GB / China technical sheet

The Realme 12 Pro suits buyers seeking a balanced 5G phone with a polished display and a more versatile camera setup than usual. Its clearest strength is the screen and design combination: the 6.7-inch AMOLED panel runs at 120 Hz, while its 90.4% usable surface is among the best of its time. IP65 protection adds resistance to dust and water.

The 50 MP main camera has optical image stabilization, and the 32 MP telephoto camera provides 2x optical zoom, better than most phones of its time. An 8 MP ultrawide camera and 4K video recording add flexibility. Connectivity includes 5G, Wi-Fi 6E, NFC, Bluetooth 5.2, and dual SIM; overall, it is better than most phones of its time.

The Snapdragon 6 Gen 1, 8 GB of RAM, and UFS 2.2 storage place performance at a typical level for its time. The 5,000 mAh battery is also typical, while 67 W fast charging is better than most phones of its time. Its overall NeoScore is 6.7, placing the Realme 12 Pro above most phones of its time. This version has 8 GB / 256 GB, within a range from 8 GB / 128 GB to 12 GB / 512 GB; no launch price is available for a value-for-money verdict.
