While it's launched in Australia with the realme XT as its flagship offering, the realme 5 Pro sits just underneath, both in pricing and specification terms.
However, the drop in power isn't one that really makes an exceptional difference for that price drop, making it a better bet overall than the realme XT was.
Given the realme XT was (and is) in essence a cheaper Oppo phone, that makes the realme 5 Pro a genuine standout device.
It's not the flagship handset in the realme range, but the realme 5 Pro manages something even more impressive.
It provides essentially the same experience as the realme XT, and unless you have them side by side you'd really never notice the differences, while keeping a sweet $100 more in your pocket.
If you're looking in the mid-range and your budget is constrained, the realme 5 Pro is highly recommended.
The realme 5 Pro sits under the realme XT within the family; for $499 you'd get a bump in camera specifications and screen technology if that's important to you. You can read our full realme XT review here.
$399 will also buy you the Mintt UltraMintt Y3 or the Oppo A9 2020 if you wanted ColorOS specifically.
