Cons

Bloatware

Average camera performance in low light conditions

Verdict

The Realme 12 5G flaunts a chic back panel design, handles daylight photography reasonably well, and boasts a robust chipset for its price bracket. Its 6.72-inch LCD display boasts a 120Hz refresh rate and holds its own, although it tends to falter under direct sunlight. Powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 6100+ SoC, it breezes through light tasks but falls short for hardcore gaming enthusiasts. Running on Realme UI 5.0, based on Android 14, it offers customisation options but comes loaded with pesky bloatware apps. When it comes to photography, it sports a 108MP primary camera alongside a 2MP portrait camera on the rear, complemented by an 8MP selfie snapper. The resulting photos are decent, perfect for social media sharing, with colours that pop naturally. Equipped with a 5000mAh battery with support for 45W fast charging, it can easily last a full day with moderate usage or endure around 6-7 hours of heavy usage. For the accident-prone, investing in a sturdy case is advisable to prevent unfortunate slips. Overall, the Realme 12 5G exudes budget-friendly sass while delivering a commendable blend of style and camera prowess.
