The Realme 10 Pro Series has now launched globally so these two more affordable mid-range phones from
them are quite different and in this video I'm going to be doing a bit of a comparison here in
depth actually to look at the performance differences the differences in the screen
cameras loudspeakers battery life charging time 33 watts versus 67 Watts we've got the
dimensity 1080 versus the Snapdragon 695 an IPS screen versus an AMOLED screen and both
of these versions have 108 megapixel cameras and 5 000 milliamp hour batteries with the realme 10
Pro Plus we get a 67 watt charger our type A to type c cable and then the 10 Pro you get a
33 watt charger so it's a lower wattage slower charging and I'll give you the exact charging
speeds later on in this in-depth comparison review I'll type c cable and with both of the
phones you get and put in information a SIM tray tool and a a TPU case in this smoky gray color
so quickly here I'll run through the differences we have with our design and the build quality
album the screen is the obvious one so the cheaper model the 10 Pro which I always keep on the right
of the screen this has an IPS panel so it's 6.72 inches full HD Plus resolution 120 hertz both of
them but then the 10 Pro Plus has a curved AMOLED screen it's also a lot brighter you're looking at
800 nits versus 600 Nets Peak on the cheaper model and if the screen is the thing you're looking at
the most of course the whole time you use the most I would definitely if you can opt for the
OLED or AMOLED sorry screen here that we've got with this model it's a lot better but it has the
curved glass to it and you'll see that this one completely flat and very slim bezels on the tin
Pro just look at how slim those are left and right they've done an excellent job with the design of
this one real me just getting those bezels so slim very good bottom chin here the bottom lip
the bezel with the 10 Pro Plus and you'll see the frame games on these now the outer frame is
plastic on both of them both a painted plastic so if you drop it it's going to dent and it will look
pretty ugly there but in hand I think the squared off one actually feels just fine but the curvature
to the temporary plus feels a little bit better there so we've got two type c ports here now they
do not support video out they USB 2 speeds it's kind of to be expected this price point we gain
a 3.5 millimeter headphone jack with the 10 Pro the cheaper model the 10 Pro Plus does not have
that at all and it doesn't support micro SD cards where the 10 Pro does it's some trade tool is on
the left hand side and you see the left hand side of the tempro plus there is nothing there so the
weights and the thickness you are looking at with the thickness here eight millimeters on the 10 Pro
Plus and then it's just over so about 8.3 with the 10 Pro so slightly thicker and the weight of
it is quite a bit heavier so we're looking at here 92 grams versus then about 100 and
75 grams so feels a bit lighter because of the curved screen on the back feels a bit better
in hand but I still like the squared off frame I don't think it's bad at all and finally looking at
the top here you will see we've got our secondary microphone so yes there is active noise canceling
with the calls and at the top there the Dual loudspeaker Port where the port is here so they
both do have the Dual loud speakers the back of them we've got a very similar setup with a plastic
on the back here and there's this texture to it so you can see it kind of shimmers in the light the
Black Version here with the 10 Pro Plus you can see that a little more it picks up fingerprints a
little bit but what is more fingerprint resistant is the 10 Pro find that seems to hold up a little
better then the difference with the cameras so we've got the main 108 megapixel sensor
that is on both of them and really good to see at this price point it's excellent to get this
and then of course a front-facing cameras they are 16 megapixels the difference is with got a
8 megapixel Ultra wide with the 10 Pro Plus there is no Ultra wide camera with this model here it's
just got that 2 megapixel macro camera well it's actually used for depth the other one here is for
macros no one's going to be taking two megapixel macro photos really maybe you'll do it just once
or twice it's a bit of a gimmick so they could have actually done away with that now build
quality of both of them is good but I have to give the edge to the build the design uh definitely
to the more expensive 10 Pro Plus model looking a little more closely at the screens with the white
balance you'll notice that the IPS is a little bit more correct there's a bit of a blue tint coming
through with the AMOLED here now the bezels left and right with the AMOLED looks Slimmer because
of the curvature of the screen now you will notice that right at the edge the colors shift out a tiny
little bit now with the IPS panel you'll notice quite a bit but when you move it to the side see
how it shifts out and looks a lot dimmer so the viewing angles are better on the AMOLED screen and
it does yes have the problem maybe if you're going to be using this for like five years if it will
last that long this phone and the screen is on for long extended periods you could possibly get
screen burn but it's not really that much of an issue I've never had screen burn issues uh in the
last five years it's only on the very first phones that had it way back in the day so you've got
settings here with a refresh rate on both of them that you can either set the Auto Select or high or
60. now for this comparison I've set both of them the whole time I've been using them at 120 hertz
I believe most people will do that because that after all is what you're paying for one of the
specs so why not use it now you both got options in here for the display size font adjusting color
mode options okay so this is where I've kept them both on Vivid and setting them to Natural uh then
well they're looking pretty similar now very similar with the white balance and now I think
the AMOLED definitely is looking a lot better now this is the screen to go for because it has the
800 nits of brightness versus only 600 so it's a lot better indirect sunlight I find is using
this one here the 10 Pro Plus for hands down easy for me to pick this one the winner for the screen
is definitely the realme 10 Pro Plus with the AMOLED screen but if these phones are on Android
13 and running the new realme UI 4.0 I found both of them to be very good with the performance very
quick very Snappy but the edge does go to the 10 Pro Plus it has the faster chipset and it does
have more memory so this has got 12 gigabytes of RAM versus eight I've got 256 gigabytes of storage
versus a 128 and I am noticing a bit of a speed difference especially when I open some things now
I've cleared out all the tasks in the background and I've got more or less the same amount of
screenshots and photos in the albums and this is a good way to show you the difference and which
one loads up the first and you could see it was definitely the 10 Pro Plus Now using both of them
they are really fluid I haven't really noticed any issues with the UI but I have discovered
that there are bugs present on both of them now one of them is that if you turn on flight mode
with this particular phone the 10 Pro Plus the screen will start to flash it will turn off then
back on again I wonder if it's going to start to do it it sometimes takes a few minutes for that
to happen it's quite annoying there's been a few other little minder bugs so it's still to me there
we go it's starting to bug out now still doesn't feel quite polished yet realm of UI 4.0 I believe
there's quite a few firmware updates to come over these phones do come with a bit of bloatware quite
a bit of bloatware installed and it seems that in this area realme is going backwards a little bit I
used to compare them a lot to say MIUI and miui's full of bloatware but real meat used to be more
light and lenient but it's starting to creep in there there's quite a few bloatware applications
that I'm noticing they're installing now there's one new thing that I don't particularly like here
with the launcher and that is when you go to your apps drawer you had this search bar thing that was
at the top now the way to get rid of it is to go into the settings and you can do so just by
holding down here are pinching and go over to more and it's kind of hidden away but you need to find
in there when it starts to talk about the home screen mode drawer mode there that's where it's
hidden is you want to turn off this personalized search and these ones here Show app suggestions
because by default that is actually there and you see when I go to the App Store now it brings up
all the stuff at the top and you can't even see your apps and it always loads in the keyboard
here which is still kind of happening it's not happening with the firmware with the 10 Pro Plus
so that's why I'm saying it's like a little bit buggy here but I don't like this feature they've
implemented in with real me UI 4.0 so that is why I do suggest you just go and get rid of this
you see how it's all this area now we're missing with these recommended apps so that is why it's a
little bit annoying and it's just easier to get rid of that by going through those settings and
to just go along and disable it but hidden away in the home screen mode there so get rid of that
one and that one to fix 6. that problem and now you see it's kind of normal there but it's still
bringing up the keyboard automatically if you like to watch Netflix on your phone if you go
to install it in the Google Play Store both of the phones report this problem here this app
won't work for your device so this is something that realme does need to correct along with some
bug fixes that I'm sure are coming with realme UI 4.0 charge time on both of them there is a
big difference because we've got 67 watts versus 33 Watts this took 35 minutes this one here the
10 Pro took 55 minutes even though the counter here stopped at 69 I kept recording uh timing it
should I say and it's a little slower but they're both under one hour I wouldn't base my decision on
that but yes it is faster of course with the more expensive model and it looks like more efficient
to the dimensity 1080 so we have a 5000 amp hour capacity on both of these and it did go in this
fixed battery life test for over one hour longer the 10 in Pro Plus versus the 10 Pro now in real
world use you look at around about seven seven and a half hours on screen time versus here seven and
a half eight hours of on-screen time so you get a real world about half an hour more of
screen on time with the 10 Pro Plus now there is a noticeable difference in the performance so the
dimensity 1080 versus the Snapdragon 695 they're both six nanometer processed chips and they both
do support 5G the biggest difference is really the GPU you can see here and the memory performance
that we do get with the dimensity 1080. so this is another reason if you can try to go for the TM Pro
it's just got a little bit more performance if you game a lot then it is uh the one to go for
now there is a difference with audio because there is one that supports a 3.5 millimeter headphone
jack that of course is the 10 Pro so the real me 10 Pro does have the Snapdragon 695 and the audio
quality I find to be actually better when it's wired now for the 10 Pro Plus you need to use
a type c adapter that is not included sadly but then with that of course you can use it so what
about loudspeakers they do have dual loudspeakers downward firing and then the top part here so the
top here as well the earpiece and then the bottom speaker so what I'll do is I will play the 10 Pro
Plus first and then the 10 pro at 100 volume and we'll have a listen to the difference foreign
at all between them this is slightly louder now they're not what I would classify a core high
quality loudspeakers they're quite tinny sounding there is hardly any bass to them so it's mostly
just mids and highs they're all right I mean the volume on both of them is good at this price point
it's acceptable enough but the slight Edge and the wind only just goes to the more expensive 10
Pro Plus model onto our gaming performance now so I have the high preset set and 60 frames per
second with Gen Shin impact now this is the real me 10 Pro so it's got the Snapdragon 695 and it's
struggling here a little bit getting around 35 frames per second it's still perfectly playable
but I'll move over now and I will test out the 10 Pro Plus and see what frame rate that one gets
so the same settings the high preset was 60 frames per second let's have a look and see
how it does run it you can see the frame rate is clearly a lot better it's 45 frames per
second just there now 37 42 frames so we're getting slightly better performance out of
that dimensity 1080 and I do remember have 12 gigabytes of RAM here versus the eight gigabytes
that you'll find with the realme 10 Pro while the version that they sent out to me real me
now the cameras so our front-facing camera 16 megapixels there is a difference in the processing
software side of thing you can see to me that the colors are more pleasant actually with the front
facing 16 megapixel camera on the real me 10 Pro not the Pro Plus but then images shot with the
main camera so 108 megapixels seem to always be a little bit brighter with the Pro Plus now this I
think is a gain another software difference or it could just be because the chipset the image
signal Processing Unit in the dimensity 1080 is a little bit better than the 695 the same story when
it does come to Portrait photos that they were a little bit too bright here with the 10 Pro and it
just looks like the Pro Plus captures a slightly better portrait photo to me it is definitely the
10 Pro Plus that handles the dark images the HDR seems to just be a little bit better here look
at the differences of my cat Vera I think it's the temporal plus it looks better just look at
her white fur the black fur there and then more details that it's able to capture so there's a
big difference even though they're very similar the same sensor it's all down to the processing
the only real big difference is of course we've got an 8 megapixel Ultra wide with the Pro Plus
so that allows you to get a lot more into the shot but if you've got the 10 Pro you're not
missing out on March because there's Ultra wide is of poor quality it's not a great eight megapixel
sensor there's a lot of noise and it looks quite blurry around the edges due to the lens
finally low light performance out of both of them with the 108 megapixel sensor a lot of
noise they don't look great now you could say the image is slightly sharper on the Pro Plus but the
Pro Plus has a little more noise so they're kind of trading blows here and if you're basing your
decision off this I wouldn't if you take a lot of low light photos you probably want to look at a
more of a different phone altogether Flagship one was Optical image stabilization which this Lacks
video quality there is a big difference so you get 4k 30 with the Pro Plus you don't with the
pro however it doesn't have electronic image stabilization so it looks sharper but it's
shaking all over the place as you can see from this now if you shoot 1080p on both of them the
quality is about the same there's not too much of a difference the audio bitrate's okay it's
256 kilobits per second not amazing quality for video and then the ultra wide camera with the
Pro Plus this is 1080p video with electronic image stabilization and very poor video quality it looks
a little washed out it's lacking detail sharpness is poor and overall not really that great at all
okay so it was evident and clear that the realme 10 Pro Plus would be the better phone it's more
expensive has the better chipset better gaming performance and it has the ultra wide camera
AMOLED screen as brighter and it just looks overall better both screens are 120 hertz and
they are decent panels for both of them and IPS is is all right but of course it just can't compete
and match the AMOLED screen we do have with the 10 Pro Plus so there is a couple of things that
this model does have so the realme 10 pro has the 3.5 millimeter headphone jack micro SD card and
the cheaper price tag so it is the one to go for if you're on a budget and you prefer audio you're
not a gamer you don't care too much about AMOLED OLED AMOLED screens then okay just go for the IPS
then it'll be fine it won't get the screen burn in three years time that this could get and I haven't
already seen it myself but it still does happen and the better battery life and the charging time
was an obvious one two here for me being the AMOLED AMOLED versus the OLED now the software
not 100 bug free as I showed you there's a bit of a bug going on with the 10 Pro Plus quite a
major one if you use flight mode on say a flight well you're not going to be able to use the phone
because the screen just keeps cutting in and out and then the launcher has some weird things going
on with the apps drawer that shows all those a new recommended applications by default the keyboard
comes up by default and it's kind of annoying the way it's set up there and the introduction
of more bloatware slowly creeping in I don't like either so hope realme can fix that I'm
sure bug fixes are coming in on their way so thank you for watching this comparison of the
global versions here of realme's 10 Pro Series the 10 Pro Plus my winner and then the 10 Pro
