Snapdragon 712 handles the daily grind here, paired with 8GB RAM and 128GB storage, so there's room for apps, photos and games without constant juggling. The 6.3-inch IPS LCD panel runs at full HD+ resolution with a 409 ppi density, sharp enough for reading text and watching video without visible pixelation. Realme 5 Pro price in Malaysia starts from RM1099.

On the back sits a quad-camera setup led by a 48MP main sensor, joined by an 8MP ultrawide, a 2MP macro and a 2MP depth sensor for portrait shots. Up front, a 16MP camera covers selfies and video calls. The 4035mAh battery is the practical highlight, backed by 20W VOOC fast charging that Realme claims gets you to 50% in half an hour.

Build-wise it's glass front, plastic back and frame, with splash resistance thrown in. It ships on Android 9 with Realme UI, and an upgrade path to Android 10 was on the cards at launch.
