The 10 Pro Plus can rightly be called the successor to the Realme 9 series. The company has paid more focus on the design and multimedia experience of the phone, making it a novelty to look out for. One can comfortably hold the phone, thanks to the curved body called the ‘HyperSpace Design’.
Display
- The phone consists of a 6.7 inch AMOLED display and 120Hz refresh rate, 360 hz touch response, and a brightness of 800 nits. Watching the phone's display is a delight to the eyes due to its rich and punchy colours.

- Its thickness is just 7.8mm, and its weight is 173 gm, making it the lightest and thinnest smartphone on the market. It features a 5000 mAh battery inside with a 67W fast charging feature too.

You will also find a 16-MP selfie camera at the centre of the screen on top. What we liked about the camera is that it changes modes automatically depending on the surroundings. The phone captures some really good shots in perfect lighting conditions with clear detailing, colours, & contrast.

You can unlock the phone with a face sensor and fingerprint sensor. The face control works well in sunlight too.

Our Product Testing Expert’s Opinion
The Realme 10 Pro Plus is a beautifully designed mid-range phone that performs well. It has a good battery life which can adequately support streaming and multimedia. At a price tag of Rs. 24,999, it looks brilliant and gives a lag-free experience. It comes with Android 13 out of the box, which is a big plus. Retaining the camera, OIS could have been a better move by the company.
On the downside, the bloatware gets installed automatically, which can be annoying. A better cooling system could have made the phone popular with gamers too. The lack of splash resistance is what will disappoint the users.
Who Should Buy This?
- Those who want a good-performing phone
- Anyone who wants a mid-range phone with premium looks
- Latest Android out of the box
- All those who want a decent camera
- It is for those who want a good everyday phone
5 Phones in a Similar Price Range
A very close competitor of the Realme 10 Pro Plus 5g is Redmi Note 12 Pro 5g. The Redmi camera has OIS, a big drawback in the Realme 10 pro plus. Also, the Redmi Note 12 pro 5g is splash-proof IP53. Though both the phones compete closely, the Redmi Note 12 Pro 5g wins the specs score.
Another rival of Realme is the OnePlus Nord CE 3 Lite 5G. The OnePlus device features an IPS display, a Snapdragon Qualcomm processor, 680 nits brightness, and weighs 195 gm. The Realme has better features and wins the competition. However, the OnePlus has an expandable memory of 1 TB, 8GB RAM, and an audio jack too.
Priced at Rs.22,999, the POCO X5 Pro is a phone in a similar price range as the Realme. The POCO device performs better than the Realme with its Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G chipset. However, in terms of display, camera, dimensions, etc., the devices perform similarly. Thus, if you are willing to pay a little extra and want a lightweight phone, then the Realme is the right choice.
When compared to the OPPO Reno8 T5G, the Realme wins the race due to its good-performing chipset. The Oppo device has expandable 1 TB memory, a 32 MP camera, and 8 GB RAM. However, expert ratings and user votes declare Realme the better device.
Drawing a comparison between Realme 10 Pro Plus and vivo Y100, we see that the vivo phone takes the scores for its performance, camera, and display. The Realme is lightweight and has a better refresh rate but lacks water resistance and OIS.
