Editorial report

Realme 16 Pro technical sheet

The Realme 16 Pro suits buyers who want a large display, a high-capacity battery, and a high-resolution main camera. Its main trade-off is the lack of optical zoom, while the rest of the package stays well balanced.

Its 6.78-inch AMOLED display runs at 144 Hz, reaches 450 ppi, and uses 91% of the front surface. Those figures are among the best or better than most phones of its time. IP68 and IP69K protection adds resistance to water and dust. The 7,000 mAh battery and 80 W charging are better than most for capacity and charging power, although the battery overall is typical.

The 200 MP main camera is among the highest-resolution options of its time and includes optical image stabilization. Its f/1.9 aperture is worse than most, however, and there is no optical zoom. Connectivity is better than most, with 5G, Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.4, eSIM, and NFC. This version has 8 GB of LPDDR5X RAM and 256 GB of UFS 3.1 storage; the phone is also sold from 8 GB / 128 GB to 12 GB / 256 GB. With a NeoScore of 7.5 and an overall result better than most phones of its time, it is a strong choice for display, battery capacity, and main-camera resolution.
