realme solidifies its leadership in smartphone sales once again after the first day sale of the largely anticipated realme 8 Series on May 22. The country’s no. 1 smartphone brand for Q1 2021 according to research firms Canalys and IDC managed to win over the hearts and trust of over 26,000 Filipinos who put in orders for its latest smartphone offering.
The realme 8 Series was officially revealed to the public via a special livestream featuring Kathryn Bernardo on May 11 on the realme Philippines Facebook page and YouTube channel. Since then, the brand has generated a staggering amount of pre-orders for the realme 8 series.
The success of the realme 8 Series can be attributed to the elevated features of the realme 8 and the realme 8 Pro, both capturing the passions and interests of the brand’s young, digital-savvy demographic. One such passion is content creation, with both the realme 8 and the realme 8 Pro offering incredible camera features for every content-savvy user.
Thanks to its powerful 108MP quad rear camera setup, the realme 8 Pro offers the most advanced photo and video capabilities. It also offers the world’s first Tilt-shift Time-lapse Video and Starry Time-lapse Video mode on smartphones that users can explore to showcase their creativity and unlock their artistic prowess when it comes to content creation. Day or night, users are guaranteed to take clear, vivid, and lifelike images.
The realme 8 also proves to be a stellar mid-range smartphone with advanced camera features. Boasting a 64MP camera, the realme comes packed with three new portrait filters: Neon Portrait, Dynamic Bokeh, New AI Portrait. In addition, the realme 8 proves to be the top choice for mobile gaming enthusiasts as it features a powerful MTK Helio G95 processor. This lets users enjoy smooth and outstanding performance in top mobile games like Mobile Legends, Call of Duty Mobile, League of Legends: Wild Rift, PUBG Mobile, and more.
