90% Realme 12 Pro+ Review: Big on Cameras… and Just About Everything Else
Source: NDTV Gadgets
The Realme 12 Pro+ with its overhauled design, updated core hardware and a very capable telephoto camera easily makes for a worthy upgrade even if you happen to own last year's model. As a mid-range device stacked up against smartphones like the Redmi Note 13 Pro+, it does fall a bit short when comparing specifications on paper. The Redmi Note 13 Pro+ (Review) surely goes big on bragging rights with a better IP68 rating, faster 120W wired charging and a massive 200-megapixel camera sensor and should be high-up on your list if raw performance is a priority. And these bragging rights do come at a higher starting price of Rs. 31,999 (for the 8GB RAM + 256GB storage variant). But it misses out on a few things that Realme 12 Pro+ latches on to like a leech. There's a class-leading telephoto camera that performs like nothing else we have used in this segment or even above it (Pixel 7a).

realme 12 Pro+ Review Philippines: Well-Rounded Travel Buddy
Source: Unbox
The realme 12 Pro+ essentially addressed our complaints with its predecessor and stepped up its game with a class-leading periscope camera that makes it a well-rounded mid-range phone in the Philippines if cameras are your priority. It’s really hard to complain about the 12 Pro+, as it is the only under Php 30k phone in the Philippines to offer a filler-free camera setup that includes a powerful periscope camera.

realme 12 Pro+ 5G Review: Not just an Eye-candy!
Source: Manila Shaker
Overall the realme 12 Pro+ 5G is a solid upgrade from the realme 11 Pro+ 5G. Despite it having a smaller main shooter or 67W charging instead of the 100W they still compensated it with a more battery-efficient display, a more flexible camera, and a much more luxurious design. The other sensors on its cameras are also not just for show, but they deliver a post-worthy quality. The realme 12 Pro + 5G is priced at Php25,999. Starting on March 7 up to March 15 you can get it for Php21, 999 on realme official Lazada, Shopee, and Tiktok shops. If you are planning to upgrade to realme 12 Pro + we hope that this video helped you decide. So that is our review of the realme 12 Pro + 5G! Should you want to know our top 5 favorite features of this device, you may read it here.

realme 12 Pro+ Review
Source: Yugatech
The realme 12 Pro+ 5G might not have changed too much in terms of design compared to its predecessor, but realme did make changes where it matters – performance and camera. Consequently, realme didn’t make the phone too expensive despite the serious performance and camera upgrades. At a price of just Php 25,999 (with special intro price of Php 21,999 via Lazada, Shopee and Tiktok Shop), it is a bit more expensive than before. But given the upgrades, I would say it is justified. However, the price increase does mean it has a lot more serious contenders to go up against. Even if you already have the realme 11 Pro+ 5G 11, you won’t feel short-handed if you do trade up. Nonetheless, the realme 12 Pro+ 5G is a great phone to buy especially if you already need to upgrade to a new model this early 2024.

95% Realme 12 Pro Plus 5G Review: Created for Success
Source: Root Nation
The realme 12 Pro Plus 5G meets many of the requirements that potential buyers have when choosing a smartphone in this price range, but it does have some drawbacks. The smartphone has a great, quite unusual design, a quality display with good ergonomics and smoothness of operation, making the content viewing experience enjoyable. The cameras are mostly good and will surprise you if you’ve never used a periscope camera on a phone before. The clarity and level of detail in the photos will definitely impress. The processor is decent enough, but don’t expect it to be the fastest in its price segment. Battery life is another plus for this device. Nevertheless, for those seeking first-class aesthetics in design and excellent camera capabilities at an affordable price, the realme 12 Pro Plus will be a great choice.

Realme 12 Pro Plus Review: New Mid-Range Camera Champion
Source: Cashify
The Realme 12 Pro Plus is the company’s attempt to attract a photography-centric audience. It offers a premium design with a soft touch finish, a long-lasting battery, and excellent haptics. The cameras are one of the best in this range, with a flagship-grade periscope lens with 3x optical zoom, which is a first in this segment. However, the Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 is only suitable for casual usage and isn’t made for intense gaming. Furthermore, the promise of only two years of OS updates and the inclusion of bloatware is disappointing. The display brightness is also average, and the lack of Dolby Vision and HDR features puts it behind the competition. If you prioritize an excellent periscope camera and love taking portraits, look no further than the Realme 12 Pro Plus. Otherwise, you can consider other options like the Xiaomi Redmi Note 13 Pro Plus, Oppo Reno 11, iQOO Neo 7 Pro, and Motorola Edge 40 in the same price segment.

78% Realme 12 Pro+ Review: Making Headway
Source: Tech PP
For a starting price of Rs 29,999, the Realme 12 Pro+ gives you a striking design, excellent battery life, a periscope telephoto sensor, and a generally good camera performance. However, when stacked against its competitors in the same price range, the phone appears to fall behind in some departments. To begin with, the display isn’t the best in the segment. Then, there’s the Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 chipset, which isn’t the most capable and may not age well a couple of years down the line. Finally, you have minor but notable weak points like the maximum onboard storage option being limited to just 256GB, support for fast charging reduced to 67W, and protection being limited to just IP65, which can influence your purchase decision, considering that the competition offers them in the same price range.

Realme 12 Pro and 12 Pro Plus Smartphones Review
Source: OI Spice Tech News
Both Realme 12 Pro and 12 Pro Plus provide what they claimed and that is a premium user experience. This premium experience can be seen everywhere, including its leather design, superb display, speedy chipsets, excellent cameras, and great batteries. These are its greatest strengths. On top of that, the curved nature of the displays further enhances the premium experience of the new smartphones. However, there are some cons as well, especially if you consider the prices of the two smartphones, which are not cheap by any means. One of the major cons is the lack of any display protection. In the premium smartphone category, this is a must. The second would be the lack of wireless charging, which is not a must but would have been nice to have. It would have certainly set it apart from others in the market. Right now, the new smartphone doesn’t offer much that its competition in the same price bracket doesn’t already offer, except for the cameras. The cameras of the Realme 12 Pro and Realme 12 Pro Plus are indeed better than the competition.

Clearly, Realme bets on design and camera experience with the 12 Pro+. Battery life is considerably above average too, but it may be a bit hard to justify the higher price tag compared to its predecessor. The latter had faster charging and a better main camera. The display is largely unimpressive too. It's good enough, but falls behind the competition in terms of max brightness. Some more powerful chipsets are also available. Do we recommend the 12 Pro+? It depends. Suppose you want long battery life with decently fast charging - yes. You also get а very competent 3x periscope telephoto camera and premium design. However, better all-rounders can be had for the same price, so if you are after the best value for your money, you might want to shop around.

Realme 12 Pro Plus review: Potential segment winner despite imperfections
Source: Business Standard
Chinese smartphone brand Realme has frequently referred to itself as a technology democratiser. While this claim may not hold true for all models in its lineup, the top-end model in its number series certainly makes a compelling case for it. Known as the Realme 12 Pro+, this smartphone delivers flagship-grade design, display, camera system, performance, and battery life, all starting at Rs 33,999. On paper, the Realme 12 Pro+ appears to offer excellent value for money in the midrange segment. However, whether it lives up to its on-paper promises remains to be seen. Let us delve into details to find out: Design The Realme 12 Pro Plus, in the Submarine Blue colour variant under review, features a leather-finished back cover with a watch-like design for the camera and a gold-coloured frame.

The Realme 12 Pro+ stands out as a versatile 5G smartphone, handling everyday tasks smoothly and swiftly. It supports heavy gaming titles, boasts solid battery life under moderate use, and features a vibrant display with impressive colour reproduction. The daylight camera performs well, providing good image quality. However, the Realme 12 Pro+ is a standout in its price range. With an attractive design featuring a leather finish, a sharp display, and reliable performance, it’s complemented by an improved Realme UI. The primary and telephoto cameras deliver impressive results in various scenarios, and the battery life is commendable. If these features are something you look for in a device, the Realme 12 Pro+ would be a worthwhile investment.

80% Realme 12 Pro Plus review: Premium design and excellent telephoto lens bogged down by a mid-range chipset
Source: The Indian Express
The Realme 12 Pro Plus is a premium-looking device that ticks almost all the boxes. The main and telephoto cameras take excellent pictures during daytime and in low light conditions. The screen, speakers, and charging speeds, all are on par with other devices in the price bracket. However, the phone is bogged down by the Snapdragon 7s Gen 2, which might not be as snappy as other phones that cost the same two to three years down the line. Moreover, for reasons unknown, Realme has limited storage capacity to 256GB, which might be a bummer for some. But if you can overlook the aforementioned cons and are looking for a phone that feels premium and has an excellent primary and telephoto camera for the asking price, the Realme 12 Pro Plus might be the only choice under Rs 30,000, at least for now.

realme 12 Pro+ 5G Review – Here’s the flagship challenger! Groundbreaking cameras, premium on looks, and unmatched value
Source: Mobygyaan
The realme 12 Pro+ 5G offers remarkable specs and features for its pricing (₹29,999). The realme 12 Pro+ 5G has redefined the smartphone camera landscape by introducing a groundbreaking camera setup (50 MP IMX890 + 64 MP OV64B periscope + 8 MP ultra-wide) challenging the flagship smartphones in the market. You get a periscope lens for portraits, twice the OIS for two cameras, 3x optical zoom, 6x in-sensor zoom, and as much as 120x SuperZoom. The camera trio is a delightful surprise for its segment, making it a highly recommended choice for photography enthusiasts for this budget. The camera’s exceptional specs also make it a perfect contender against many smartphones in this price range. With a stylish and premium vegan leather design, smooth 120 Hz curved AMOLED screen, snappy performance (Snapdragon 7s Gen 2), a powerful camera setup, and perks from realme UI 5.0, the realme 12 Pro+ 5G stands out as the best performer in its class. The realme 12 Pro+ 5G is highly recommended for those seeking a smartphone within the ₹30,000 budget range.

80% Review: Realme 12 Pro Plus 5G a good pick for Rs 30,000

The Realme 12 Pro Plus 5G ticks many right boxes but has some weaknesses. It has a dandy display with good ergonomics and smoothness that makes the experience good. The cameras are mostly good and will wow you if you have never used a periscope camera on a phone before. The amount of clarity and details in photos will appeal to you. The processor is good but you cannot expect it to be the fastest in its segment. Its design is subjective, but there is no denying the overall finish of the phone is plush. The battery life is another plus point. If cameras are one thing you are prioritising in a phone over other things, the Realme 12 Pro Plus 5G should be your consideration at under Rs 30,000. If you want better performance, do not zero in before looking at the competition. There is the Redmi Note 13 Pro Plus and the POCO X6 Pro, both of which offer better performance at the expense of a periscope camera.

80% Realme 12 Pro+ review: yay for many reasons
Source: 91mobiles
The all-new Realme 12 Pro+ can be yours at a starting price of Rs 29,999. Some alternatives to this smartphone include POCO X6 Pro (review), Motorola Edge 40 (review), and Redmi Note 13 Pro+ (review), all of which offer relatively better performance and viewing experience. Additionally, Motorola and Redmi smartphones come with a superior ingress protection rating – IP68, as opposed to IP65. Nevertheless, the Realme 12 Pro+ emerges as an impressive smartphone for its price. The handset exhibits a nice design with a leather finish, a crisp display, and reliable performance, complemented by Realme UI which looks more user-friendly than before. The primary and telephoto cameras of the smartphone are also remarkable in most scenarios, and the battery backup is quite respectable. If these aspects appeal to you, the Realme 12 Pro+ would be a worthwhile investment.

70% Realme 12 Pro+ 5G review: Brings worthy competition to the segment
Source: India Today
The Realme 12 Pro+ 5G is a pretty good deal. You get a good display, a good battery performance, a premium-looking design, pretty decent camera, especially if you are a fan of portrait shots, and largely decent general performance. The only downside I can point out in the phone is the sometimes-laggy in-display fingerprint sensor and the bloatware in the UI. The latter is easily fixable. However, looking at the pricing of the Realme 12 Pro+ 5G, I really think the smartphone is still a pretty good deal. The Redmi Note 13 Pro+ 5G, which is the biggest competitor of the Realme 12 Pro+ 5G, also has a largely similar performance overall. So, unless you are particularly a fan of Xiaomi phones, the Realme 12 Pro+ 5G definitely is a battery value for money.
