Reviews for the Realme 8

81.7% Realme 8 smartphone review - Without fast internet the better phone? | Notebookcheck
The realme 8 4G costs just as much as its 5G brother. Does that make sense? Are there better features elsewhere? In the review, we take a look at for whom the inexpensive smartphone is worthwhile.

The realme 8 is a product of its time. This is a kind of usual version of a modern inexpensive smartphone for the average user. It has a bright AMOLED screen, a powerful battery with fast charging, a decent 64 megapixel camera, a nimble fresh shell and a fingerprint scanner built into the display.

The Realme 8 is a solid, if unremarkable, budget buy. For the price you’re getting a dependable main camera, strong battery life, and OLED screen, all backed up by a smooth software experience that prioritises ease-of-use. Similarly priced rivals might beat the Realme 8 on one or two specs, and particularly you may feel that it’s worth investing in a 5G model at this point. But you’ll find a welcome balance of features here that should suit most users more or less, making the Realme 8 a jack-of-all-trades.

Realme 8 Review – But Where’s The Change?
Source: Cashify English EN→zh-CN
Realme 8 4G is a well-put smartphone on paper. When it comes to real-life performance, the phone does have both pros and cons. Note that G95 is a solid SoC at this price tag and there’s no point denying it. The battery life, charging speeds, and Super AMOLED display are some of the USPs to bank although the company mentioned a brightness of 1000 nits which seems dubious. Note that Realme 8 4G is a well-put phone and thus, its cons are preferably minuscule in many cases while the pros and exceptional including 4K videos, 3.5mm headphone jack while trading off with no stabilization, no stereo speakers, and the same one two-old design with a plastic build.

The Realme 8 offers a competent smartphone package for anyone looking to spend less than £200. In skipping 5G, you get a vibrant FHD+ AMOLED display, a reasonably capable 64-megapixel camera, plus superior gaming performance over the Realme 8 5G. However, there are a few quirks and glitches here that may need addressing, while those hoping for genuine progress over the (at the time) impressive Realme 7 will be disappointed.

Realme 8 Review – Is the Super AMOLED all you need?
Source: Manila Shaker English EN→zh-CN
Realme 8 is not the best vanilla version in the realme number series for me. I still like the Helio G90T on the Realme 6 because it offers higher refresh rate compatibility and higher settings available when playing games. However, power-wise, the Realme 8 does give beneficial growth among all of its predecessors. Unlike the Realme 7, the super AMOLED of the Realme 8 does offer a great impact in gaming. And if you add the battery capacity and charging speed, it will really give you what you pay for even the chipset only has 12nm architecture. To make it short, Realme 8–for the price of P13,990(8GB/128GB)–gives you more time and a worry-free user/gaming experience. What more it can give if you add a higher refresh rate on an AMOLED display.

Realme isn't exactly a household name in the West still, despite being around since 2018. Its name is better known in India where it holds a number of records and is also the country's fourth largest smartphone brand. In the UK and US though? It's a less known quantity. Perhaps then that's why the Realme 8 manages to be very well priced while still offering some great features. On paper, it has everything you could need from a budget phone. There's a 6.4-inch AMOLED screen that's bright and vibrant each step of the way, along with a MediaTek Helio G95 chipset that's designed with gaming in mind. A decent set of cameras further solidifies its ability to be a bit of a jack of all trades.

Realme 8 Gaming Review - Better than Realme 8 Pro?

Also despite the lofty advertised 1000 nits of max brightness, the legibility in bright sun is a challenge. Color rendition isn't particularly accurate either. The quad-camera setup also doesn't quite live up to its hardware potential. That latter point can potentially be addressed with software updates, but as things currently stand, the Realme 8 arguably gets outpaced in the photography department by the Realme 8 5G despite its basic camera hardware.

That sums up the tour of the two devices exteriors. there are some distinct difference on the inside which I briefly wish to cover off as this is really what will separate the two phones. Both the phones use a Mediatek processor with the Realme 8 opting for the Helio G95 and the Realme 8 5G opting for the Dimensity 700 5G Processor. This is a key difference in the phones as it means that the Realme 8 and 8 Pro are only 4G devices and as the name suggests the Realme 8 5G is the only 5g device in the group.

The realme 8, despite lacking the pro title, is still quite a great mid-range phone. If you’re coming from the realme 7, this does make quite a big difference, especially because of the updated Super AMOLED Panel. And if gaming is also a priority for you, this might even be a better choice than the Pro.

realme 8 Review Philippines: Better with AMOLED
Source: Unbox English EN→zh-CN
Despite being almost similar to its predecessor, our review of the realme 8 in the Philippines shows that the AMOLED upgrade is an important one: aside from delivering better overall visuals when watching videos or playing games, the display upgrade also gave the realme 8 a big, big boost when it comes to battery life, lasting longer than the realme 7 by a mile despite using the same 12nm processor.

Another one of the new addition of realme on their number series. This is the realme 8, unlike the pro version, this one has a smaller 64mp main sensor, but with a bigger battery. What else separates the vanilla version from the Pro version?

Despite being almost similar to its predecessor as far as specs are concerned, our unboxing of the realme 8 in the Philippines shows the shift from IPS to AMOLED does make a good impact. The display upgrade not just introduces an in-display fingerprint scanner and a better overall video experience, but can address the rather inferior battery life of the realme 7.

70% Realme 8 Review: Not Enough of a Change
Source: NDTV Gadgets English EN→zh-CN
After spending a week with the Realme 8, it's safe to conclude that it's nothing more than a Realme 7 (Review) with an AMOLED display and slightly worse camera performance. I think the Realme 7 is still a better pick as it's less expensive, offers a 90Hz display, and hopefully should receive an Android 11 update soon. The only real advantage of the Realme 8 is that it's slimmer and lighter than the 7. Realme is also preparing to launch a 5G version of the 8 very soon, which could be priced between the Realme 8 and Realme 8 Pro, so it's worth at least waiting.

Realme 8 Review: Steady Performer Caught in Note-land
Source: Tech PP English EN→zh-CN
The Realme 8 is a good phone but while it is a competitive one, it does not really bring anything startlingly new to the table – in fact, at times it even does not seem a big step forward from the Realme 7. It is a very good option for those who want to stay in the Realme ecosystem and want a Super AMOLED display, but it has some very formidable competition to contend with.

Realme 8 is a capable smartphone and it does almost everything a mid-range smartphone should do. At a starting price of Rs 14,999, the Realme 8 is a good option for those looking for a practical smartphone that offers good battery life, display, a decent set of cameras and also excels in design. So, if you are looking for a smartphone in a budget that does not disappoint then Realme 8 could very well be your next choice.

Realme 8 isn’t a major update over the Realme 7, but you are getting a vibrant AMOLED panel and good performance at an accessible price. Those who want a great battery life will also be happy with this device. You also get 128GB as the base storage variant. The cameras on the Realme 8 will give you good shots in daylight. It is priced at Rs 14,999. Realme 8 is a good smartphone as it is offering most of the key features that a user might be looking for in the Rs 15,000 price range. However, if you care about having stereo speakers, a high-refresh-rate display and a good camera setup, then you will have to look elsewhere. The Redmi Note 10 Pro smartphone might have an edge in the camera department or you can straight up consider the Realme 8 Pro, which has a better camera to offer.

The realme 8 isn’t a game changer but has enough traits to draw attention. From its Super AMOLED display, Android 11 out-of-the-box, 30W fast charging, plenty of storage, to its 64 MP quad cameras, it can be a good pick under ₹15,000 as far as if you aren’t asking for a 90 Hz screen. The realme 8 is currently priced at ₹14,999 for its 4 GB RAM and 128 GB storage and goes up to 16,999 for 8 GB RAM variant.

70% Realme 8 review: a lot like Realme 7, but with an AMOLED display
Source: 91mobiles English EN→zh-CN
Realme has played it safe with the Realme 8. The phone is not a major upgrade from the Realme 7 apart from the display moving from LCD to AMOLED. With respect to the chipset, cameras, and battery, the two phones are identical. This means that Realme 7 users have no reason to upgrade to this phone. The predecessor also comes with an arguably better design. The Realme 8 is not as exciting as the Realme X7 and Realme Narzo 30 Pro that launched earlier this year. However, the Realme 8 is still a solid smartphone if you look at it in comparison to other devices in this segment. The closest competitor is the Redmi Note 10, which starts from Rs 15,999. By paying Rs 1,000 more, you get a 120Hz AMOLED display, a better set of cameras, and stereo speakers. The Realme 8 offers a great display, good cameras, and a decent performance, but it could have been a better successor to the Realme 7.
