The realme 13 Pro Series 5G will feature AI Ultra Clarity – an AI-powered software to increase clarity or enhance the resolution of blurry photos. They say that it’s versatile enough to be used with all types of photos or files working on first-hand taken photos, photos from older smartphone models, or low-resolution images found online.
Both the realme 13 Pro 5G and realme 133 Pro+ 5G largely share the same hardware. They will come with a Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 chipset with up to 12GB RAM and up to 512GB storage, a 6.7-inch 2412 x 1080 120Hz OLED display with Gorilla Glass 7i, a 5,200mAh battery, dual stereo speakers, a 32MP f/2.45 front-facing camera, and a Monet-inspired design made in collaboration with MFA Museum.
They do differ when it comes to the camera department and charging speed. They will still share an 8MP f/2.2 ultrawide, but the Pro+ variant will come with a 50MP f/1.88 Sony LYT-701 main camera and a 50MP f/2.56 Sony LYT-600 Periscope Telephoto while the vanilla Pro packs a 50MP f/1.88 Sony LYT-600 main camera without a dedicated telephoto. As for charging, the former will support 80W SuperVOOC while the latter slows down to 45W SuperVOOC.
Their launch will coincide with realme’s FanFest on August 28, 2024 at the Gateway Mall II in the Quantum Activity Center. The event will start at 1:30pm with seats being open to the public on a first come, first served basis.
