realme just launched the realme 8 5G in the Philippines, enabling Filipinos to capture the infinite possibilities of 5G technology.
The realme 8 5G is the brand’s latest innovation as it aims to lead the fast-growing 5G segment in the Philippines. The brand is committed to providing 5G access and connectivity to as many Filipinos as possible, as 5G infrastructure in the country are rapidly developing.
Redefining the 5G Experience

Powered by a Dimensity 700 5G processor, realme’s new 5G device mixes two highly capable Arm Cortex-A76 cores in its octa-core CPU. The chipset uses the leading 7nm production process, which is up to 28% more power-efficient than an equivalent 8nm process. This allows for high performance while efficiently consuming power.
Equipped with a 5,000 mAh massive battery with 18W Type-C Quick Charge, the 5G device is ideal for heavy data users. It also supports Smart 5G Power Saving which achieves 30% lower power consumption than handsets without the feature.
For display, it comes with a 6.5-inch Full HD+ Screen with a 90Hz refresh rate and maximum 180Hz sampling rate. The 90Hz display has a refresh rate that is 50% higher than the conventional 60Hz display. This results in a seamless and smooth visual experience with every swipe of the screen.
Lastly, the new 5G smartphone include 48MP Nightscape Camera and a 16MP Primary Camera with AI Beauty Selfie functionality. It also includes a 3-Card SIM Tray that supports the use of 2 Nano SIM cards with 5G Dual SIM Dual Standby and a dedicated microSD card slot.
