Verdict
If you are looking for the best possible camera in a very pocket-friendly smartphone the Realme 7i is a definite choice. This phone has got a 64MP f/1.8 primary camera which looks very promising at least on paper. The combination of Qualcomm Snapdragon 662 and 90Hz HD+ panel is capable enough to run any application smoothly with very optimized battery consumption. Additionally, a 5000 mAh battery can easily cover an entire day with moderate usage with fast & reverse charging support.
If I talk about cons, I personally felt Realme should have provided Snapdragon 665 (at least), an FHD+ panel, and a 20W VOOC charger. These small improvements could easily make this phone best in class, simply unbeatable.
Pros
Cons
If you are looking for the best camera phone around Rs. 13000, go for Realme 7i (4GB+128GB) for a 64MP camera, 5000 mAh battery with fast & reverse charging, fingerprint scanner, 90Hz display otherwise, go for Redmi 9 Prime (4GB+64GB) at Rs. 9999 for better display (FHD+ resolution) but it lacks the fingerprint sensor.
