The Realme P2 Pro, announced on September 13, 2024, is an impressive mid-range smartphone that packs modern features into a sleek, lightweight design. Release on September 17, 2024, this device targets users seeking both performance and style, all while staying future-proof with its 5G capabilities.
Design and Build
The Realme P2 Pro boasts a compact form factor with dimensions of 161.3 x 73.9 x 8.2 mm, making it easy to handle. Weighing just 180 grams, it strikes a good balance between a robust feel and portability. The smartphone is IP65 dust and water-resistant, offering protection from occasional spills and splashes. Its design, featuring dual SIM slots (Nano-SIM, dual stand-by), adds versatility for users who need multiple carriers.
Display
A key feature of the Realme P2 Pro is its 6.7-inch OLED display. The screen supports 1 billion colors and has a 120Hz refresh rate, providing smooth visuals and an immersive viewing experience. With a 600 nits typical brightness, it performs well under normal conditions, while its 2000 nits peak brightness ensures clear visibility even in direct sunlight. The display’s 1080 x 2412 pixels resolution (~394 ppi) delivers sharp images and vibrant colors, ideal for media consumption and gaming.
Under the hood, the Realme P2 Pro is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 chipset (4 nm), coupled with an octa-core CPU (4×2.4 GHz Cortex-A78 & 4×1.95 GHz Cortex-A55) and an Adreno 710 GPU. This configuration promises solid performance for everyday tasks, multitasking, and gaming. It runs on Android 14 with Realme UI 5.0, ensuring a user-friendly interface packed with customizations.
Camera System
The Realme P2 Pro’s dual-camera system includes a 50 MP main sensor with PDAF and OIS, ensuring crisp and stable shots. Complementing it is an 8 MP ultrawide camera with a 112˚ field of view, making it perfect for landscape and group photography. The device supports 4K video recording and offers various shooting modes, including HDR and panorama. For selfies, the 32 MP front camera captures high-resolution images, with 4K video recording as well.
Battery and Charging
The device houses a 5200 mAh non-removable battery, providing ample power for extended use. With 80W fast charging, it promises a 50% charge in just 19 minutes and can reach full capacity in under 50 minutes, according to Realme’s claims.
Additional Features
Other notable features include stereo speakers, Bluetooth 5.2, and advanced GPS positioning systems. However, it lacks NFC and a 3.5mm headphone jack, which may be a consideration for some users. Available in Parrot Green and Eagle Grey, the Realme P2 Pro combines aesthetics with functionality, making it a strong contender in its segment.
