What we like about realme 10 Pro Plus (12GB + 256GB)

  • Beautiful, slim, and lightweight curved design, often mistaken for a flagship phone.
  • Excellent 6.7-inch curved AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, good brightness, and color accuracy.
  • Outstanding battery life that often lasts a whole day, even with heavy use.
  • Impressively fast 67W SuperVOOC charging, reaching 50% in approximately 17 minutes.
  • Good performance for daily tasks and gaming thanks to the MediaTek Dimensity 1080 processor.
  • Very good photo quality from the 108MP main camera in both good and low light conditions.
  • Stereo speakers offer loud and decent audio quality.
  • The software (Realme UI 4.0 on Android 13) is generally fast, smooth, user-friendly, and has useful features.

What we don't like about realme 10 Pro Plus (12GB + 256GB)

  • Lack of Optical Image Stabilization (OIS), leading to less stable videos and occasionally blurry photos.
  • The 8MP ultrawide and 2MP macro cameras are considered mediocre and perform poorly in low light.
  • No 3.5mm headphone jack.
  • No microSD card slot for expandable storage.
  • The curved screen, while aesthetically pleasing, can cause some usability issues and accidental touches.
  • Video recording quality is subpar, with no stabilization available for 4K video.
  • Selfie camera performance is considered average or poor.
  • Some users report the 120Hz display refresh rate aggressively defaults to 90Hz in many apps unless manually overridden.

Verdict

The Realme 10 Pro Plus (12GB + 256GB variant) is a mid-range 5G smartphone featuring a flagship-level 6.7-inch curved AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and a very slim bezel, powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 1080 5G chipset. Key specifications include a versatile triple rear camera system headlined by a 108MP main sensor, a substantial 5000mAh battery with 67W SUPERVOOC fast charging, and dual stereo speakers. Major pros are its premium, lightweight design, excellent battery life, and vibrant, immersive screen, running on Android 13 with Realme UI 4.0 out of the box. Cons, however, include the lack of Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) on the main camera (a feature present in its predecessor), the absence of a 3.5mm headphone jack and a microSD card slot, and a plastic build that lacks an official IP rating for water resistance.
