Realme 7i

OhoPrice editorial review

Our Take: The Realme 7i at 34,999 PKR delivers an impressive camera system for the price. The 64 MP main sensor with its large 1/1.73-inch sensor and f/1.8 aperture captures detailed, well-exposed photos in a wide range of lighting conditions, and the 8 MP ultrawide lens adds genuine landscape photography capability that many competitors lack. The Snapdragon 662 processor is a dependable mid-range chip that handles daily tasks and casual gaming without complaint, and 8 GB of RAM ensures smooth multitasking. The 6.5-inch HD+ display at 270 PPI with a 90 Hz refresh rate is adequate, though the 720p resolution means it falls short of Full HD+ phones at similar prices. The 5,000 mAh battery provides reliable all-day endurance. Gyro-EIS video stabilisation on the front camera is a welcome addition for vloggers. The phone's main weakness is the display resolution: at 34,999 PKR, competitors with Full HD+ panels offer sharper text and video. This phone is best for buyers who prioritise camera quality over display resolution. The Sego S25 at 29,999 PKR saves you 5,000 but sacrifices camera versatility. The Sego claims a 50 MP main camera but lacks an ultrawide lens entirely, meaning you lose the landscape photography capability that the Realme 7i provides. The Sego's Helio G91 is a newer chip than the Snapdragon 662, yet benchmark performance is broadly comparable, so neither phone pulls ahead in raw speed. Both offer 128 GB of storage and a 5,000 mAh battery. The Realme's key advantage is its proven camera hardware: the large 1/1.73-inch sensor captures more light and detail than most budget competitors, making it genuinely better for low-light and action shots. The Sego's main draw is its lower price, but its missing specifications and narrower camera setup make the Realme 7i the better value for photography-focused buyers. PTA Note: Realme devices are widely sold through official Pakistani retailers and are typically PTA-approved; confirm before purchase.
