Even brightness is not an issue. This display also has HDR 10 plus certification coupled with the minimal bezels. The X50 Pro weighs in at 207 Grams that might actually stop you from using this single-handed. The glass used here for both the front and back its Corning’s Gorilla Glass 5 and given the 207-gram weight a 9-millimetre thickness. While OnePlus 8 Pro is a bit heavier. Also, it has a curved edges design that takes us to the accidental touches. Other than that, the phone is really good built and looks gorgeous. It has a bit bigger display, it’s 6.75 inches FLUID AMOLED. It has excellent colors and viewing angles and is also plenty bright as well. The display also houses an optical in-display fingerprint sensor which is really very fast.

The highlight here the reason why you’re probably interested in this phone it’s got to be the chip underneath. The X50 Pro has the Snapdragon 865 SOC at the heart of it we get 6, 8, or 12 GB of IPDDR4 RAM along with 128 or 256 GB of fast UFS 3.0 storage. The performance of the OnePlus 8 Pro is something in which we are really satisfied with the flagship. We have QUALCOMM Snapdragon 865 plus chipset 7nm. The software optimization of the OnePlus 8 Pro makes the phone perform so well. Moreover, the multitasking experience is really great too.
When it comes to performance the Realme X50 Pro comes paired with Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 processing chip. On the other hand, also comes paired with Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 processing chip on OnePlus 8 Pro. Both phones have been updated to the latest OS. It also happens to be excellent for gaming especially with those games that support high refresh rates. There is liquid cooling at play to help maintain times during extended gaming sessions. So back is quite nice to look at Realme’s got two very attractive color options, the moss green, and rust red. The 6.44-inch display to the front it is surrounded by reasonably small bezels.

We also get dual cameras in Realme, the primary is a 13 Megapixel Sony sensor the IMX 616 it’s coupled with an RF 2.5 lens. It captures detailed selfies but the colors are a little too warm to give you some perspective. The secondary camera has an 8 megapixel with an F 2.0 lens. The camera’s performance overall is satisfactory and even with portraits, both cameras continue to impress. The camera performance of the OnePlus 8 Pro is good but not the best. The main primary lens is of 48 Megapixels and is Sony IMX 689. The images do look a bit less saturated. We also have a 48 Megapixel Ultra Wide Camera which is lovely. Talking about the Telephoto camera now, its 8 Megapixel. It has a 3X optical zoom lens and also the 10X Digital Zoom. Mirco images do have great details. The night camera works also great. It just takes 2 seconds to capture the image. Talking about the selfie camera now, they’re just perfect and really great. We have 4K @ 60FPSfor high quality, stabilized videos. Overall it’s a great experience with the cameras.
So there are 6 cameras total in Realme, we’ve taken a look at the two to the front. Now let’s turn our attention to the four at the back the primary here it’s Samsung ISOCELL a 64 Megapixel sensor that’s been paired with the F 1.8 lens it produces rich images pretty well detailed. We get an 8 Megapixel Ultra-Wide to the back, the third sensor here as a 13 Megapixel telephoto that supports 2 X optical 5x hybrid and 20x digital zoom. There’s no 8k or even 4k 60 that seems to have been cut. For some weird reason, 4k 30 is available but that lack see is – meaning you might end up not using it a lot. But with optics, the X 50 Pro is slightly above-average.

| Headphone jack | USB Type-C | USB Type-C |
| Loudspeaker | Yes | Yes |
| Audio Features | Dolby Atmos | Dolby Atmos |
| FM Radio | No | No |
It has Dolby Atmos supported stereo audio. The media experience is pleasant. The X50 Pro does lack a headphone jack. Also Dual Stereo speakers in OnePlus 8 Pro is amazingly loud even the audio is going to give just a very pleasant experience to you.

The X50 Pro has a 4200 mAh battery, we’ve got the 65 WATT super dodge charger that also impresses with the charging speed. It gets 0 to 70 in 15 minutes and that especially given the charger is included in the box is pretty darn impressive. We have a 4510 mAh battery in OnePlus 8 Pro which comes with a 30 WATT fast charger. It gets 0 to 100 in just an hour.

Which is better!
The cameras at least they’re just above average but the rest of the phone right from the specs to the battery, the charging speed, the looks, the user experience, the display it’s all very good, it’s all excellent. So unless the cameras are of top priority to you the X50 Pro is a very good all-rounder that is well worth the asking price.
OnePlus 8 Pro has been a great daily driver. The performance and the software experience here is definitely the best thing about this device. Talking about the Camera, we do have something which might have to get a little better. Finally, we can say that OnePlus has a full-fleshed Flagship Phone with the best possibilities and no compromises. Also its worth the price.
It’s a tough call to decide among these, though Realme works a bit better in every possible way. So the victory is of Realme’s.
