Realme 8 5G features a 6.5-inch Full HD+ LCD display with a 90Hz refresh rate. The display also boasts a 180Hz touch sampling rate and promises a 90.5% screen-to-body ratio. There’s a punch-hole for the selfie camera.
The back of the phone is made of glass where the company has used a high-gloss indium plating process on Supersonic Blue to restore a glossy sense of light. The lenticular pattern process has also been used on the Supersonic Black to present a premium mirror effect to bring. So, the back creates a dynamic change of light when the phone is shaken.
