Just last week, realme launched its all-new realme 5 series! Releasing in an entry-level and 'Pro' variant, each model has its own advantages.

Here's why you'll want the realme 5 and realme 5 Pro:

1. The realme 5 packs a real punch in terms of battery power - over 29 days' worth of standby time. SERIOUSLY!

Yep, that's right. At 5,000 mAh, you'll be getting 29.9 days to be exact!

But of course, it's not like you're just going to get a phone and leave it on standby the entire time, right? No worries, fam.

Here's what else the insane battery life allows you to do:
1. Play 8.5 hours of PUBG
2. Listen to 30.8 hours of music
3. Make calls for up to 48.9 hours
4. Use AOL for 13 hours
5. Watch YouTube videos for 19.1 hours

Guess that's why the phone's called the PowerHero. ;)

2. The Quad-Camera systems on both the realme 5 and realme 5 Pro give you all the choices you'd ever need

The realme 5's primary setup consists of four cameras - an 8MP ultra wide-angle lens (with 119º field-of-view), a 12MP main lens, along with a 2MP portrait lens and 2MP macro lens.

The front camera is no slouch either. At 13MP, the ƒ/2.0 aperture lens is great for crisp selfies!

On the other hand, the realme 5 Pro has beastly cameras, cosigning with Sony to produce some awesome glass!

What sets it apart from the realme 5 is the presence of a 48MP Sony-engineered main camera and a 16MP Sony front-facing camera. Professional quality? Check.

Also, the night shots you can take with this are insane.

Powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 665 AIE chipset, the realme 5 has 20% increased performance when compared to the realme 3. It can reach a main frequency of up to 2.0 GHz! 

The realme 5 Pro is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 712 AIE chipset, which increases overall performance by 10%. Its main frequency can reach 2.3 GHz. Energy efficiency has also increased by 35%, which means you can keep yourself entertained for much, much longer!

4. Screen real-estate is huge AF

The realme 5 Pro's 6.3-inch FHD+ screen has a screen-to-body ratio of 90.6%. That's pretty impressive considering the fact that the Dewdrop is pretty unobtrusive too!

The realme 5 on the other hand has a slightly bigger 6.5-inch HD+ display, featuring the Mini-Drop, also allowing users to view content with absolute ease and pleasure. All this at an 89% screen-to-body ratio.
