Realme introduced several new smartphones in the market this month. The brand recently presented a new range of P-series smartphones focused on performance. The new lineup includes the Realme P1 5G, which is an entry-level smartphone launched at a starting price of Rs 15,999 in India. The phone comes with hardware, including the MediaTek Dimensity 7050 SoC coupled with UFS 3.1 storage and LPDDR4X RAM, making it a strong contender in its segment. Another smartphone in the P-series is the Realme P1 Pro, which costs Rs 21,999. Both smartphones carry a common design template – phoenix – and get a few similar specs like 5,000mAh batteries and support 45W fast charging.

The primary camera remains the same –  the 50-megapixel Sony LYT-600 (the pro version gets OIS) and a 16-megapixel selfie snapper. Both sport a 120Hz display and an in-screen fingerprint reader. The P1 and P1 Pro run on Realme’s Android 14-based UI 5.0.

However, the difference lies in the choice of processor. While a MediaTek Dimensity 7050 chip powers the Realme P1 5G, the P1 Pro has the Qualcomm Snapdragon 6 Gen 1. Furthermore, the P1 features a flat screen, while the Pro comes with a curved display. Additionally, the Realme P1 Pro is IP65 certified, while the P1 is only IP54-rated. While these specifications make the smartphones quite appealing, here’s how they stack up against each other:
