The Narzo 30 Pro is the “most powerful 5G gaming mid-ranger”, according to Realme, which is a lot to put on one device. At the heart of that promise is the MediaTek Dimensity 800U chipset, which features two Cortex-A76 cores at 2.4GHz (and six A55s) plus a Mali-G57 MC3 GPU.
That GPU will be repainting the 6.5”
1080p+ display at up to 120Hz. The switch between 60Hz and 120Hz is automatic
and depends on the content. Games that require fast reaction times will benefit
from the touch sampling rate of 180Hz. The LCD panel is rated at 600 nits peak
brightness.
The Pro model is equipped with a 48MP main
camera on the back. The sensor sits behind an f/1.8 lens and has 0.8 µm pixels
with support for 4-in-1 binning. Low light performance is further boosted by
the Super Nightscape mode. When it comes to video recording, the camera offers
4K 30 fps and 1080p 60 fps, as well as a Cinema mode (21:9 aspect ratio) and
digital image stabilization (UIS Video Stabilization).

Then there’s the 8MP ultrawide-angle
camera (119º), which is also used for the UIS Max Video Stabilization mode.
Also on the back is a 2MP macro cam (4cm shooting distance). The front camera
is punch holed into the display, it packs a 16MP sensor and also has a Super
Nightscape mode for late time selfies.
The 30 Pro is the first 5G phone in the
Narzo series. It supports Dual SIM, Dual Standby operation and downlink speeds
up to 2.34 GHz. The card slot also can take a microSD instead of one of the SIM
cards if you need more storage. As standard, the phone comes with 6GB of RAM
and 64GB storage (UFS 2.1), but there’s an option to upgrade to 8/128GB.
The 5,000 mAh battery can be filled to
nearly 50% in 25 minutes using the bundled 30W charger, a 100% charge takes 65
minutes. A full battery will last for 37 hours of calls or 18 hours of binging
on YouTube videos. Note that USB Power Delivery is supported at 15W.

on every 30 Pro units to ensure its durability. Also, all the ports have
silicon gaskets to prevent splashed water from entering the phone. Offered in

INR 16,999 (US$ 235/€ 195) or INR 19,999 (US$ 275/€ 225) for the 6/64 GB and 8/128 GB
