If you’re looking for a smartphone that delivers more than just the basics — something with a sleek design, solid specs and future-ready connectivity — the Realme 10 Pro 5G stands out as a compelling option in the mid-range segment. This phone blends modern features, 5G support and respectable performance in a package that won’t completely stretch your budget. Here’s a detailed look at what makes it worth considering.
Design, Display and First Impressions
From the moment you hold the realme 10 Pro 5G, its design reflects careful thought: a large 6.72-inch AMOLED display (or high-quality LCD depending on region) with Full HD+ resolution (1080×2400 pixels) and a 120 Hz refresh rate gives it smooth transitions and rich visuals. The water-drop or punch-hole notch is subtle and the screen offers crisp clarity, which makes the phone good for streaming videos, scrolling social media or reading content. On the exterior you’ll find slim bezels and a comfortable grip for everyday use. The build feels modern and well-balanced, making it suitable whether you’re holding it for long sessions or using it on the move.

Performance, Hardware and Real-World Use
Under the hood, realme pairs the Realme 10 Pro 5G with a capable chipset (the Snapdragon 695 5G in India) and 6-8GB of RAM with 128GB of storage as the baseline. For everyday tasks like browsing, social media, light gaming and multitasking, this translates into a smooth experience.
The 120 Hz display combined with this hardware brings a responsiveness typically found in more expensive phones. Meanwhile, thanks to the 5,000 mAh battery and 33 W fast charging support in many regions, you’re likely to get through most of the day comfortably and top-up quickly when needed. If you live in a busy town or smaller city like Kolar in Madhya Pradesh, this combination of performance and practicality makes the realme 10 Pro 5G a sensible choice.
Camera Setup and Imaging Performance
Photography is where the realme 10 Pro 5G holds its own in the mid-range field. The 108MP main rear camera and accompanying sensor(s) give you detailed shots, especially in good lighting. The image processing gives you clean shots for everyday use — whether that’s family pictures, travel snaps or just documenting moments on the go. In low light or with complex scenes you may notice a little less finesse compared to premium phones, but for the price you’re getting more than adequate performance. For someone who prioritises value over flagship-level photography/video editing, the camera package here is more than adequate.
Software, Connectivity and Future-Proofing
The realme 10 Pro 5G comes with Android 13 (or the latest available version) with realme UI on top, and includes 5G connectivity which is increasingly important in India’s market. Apart from network speed benefits, this means you’re more “future-ready” than many older phones. Additional features like NFC (where available), modern WiFi, Bluetooth ensure your connectivity is up to date. For day-to-day use — whether streaming, calls, or using multiple apps — it gives a comfortable and current experience.
Value, Pricing and Who It’s For
In India the realme 10 Pro 5G’s pricing is around ₹18,990 to ₹20,990 for the 6GB/128GB or 8GB/128GB variants depending on region or sales offers. Given what you’re getting — big display, high refresh rate, strong hardware, good camera and 5G support — that price feels competitive in the mid-range market for 2025. If you’re a buyer who wants a capable phone without going premium, and daily use involves general apps, streaming, social media, occasional photos and strong battery life, the realme 10 Pro 5G is a very good match.
However, if your use case involves heavy gaming, professional-level photography/video editing, or you demand ultra-premium build and camera systems, then you may want to consider higher tier phones. But for the typical user looking for balance, the realme 10 Pro 5G probably hits the sweet spot between capability and cost.
Final Thoughts
All things considered, the realme 10 Pro 5G manages to combine style, performance and value in a way that makes sense for 2025’s smartphone buyer. It doesn’t pretend to be the absolute best in every regard, but it delivers a very strong overall package for its segment. If you’re ready to upgrade from a more basic phone or want a “good all-rounder” that handles modern needs without breaking the bank, this is a model worth serious consideration.
