It\u2019s not perfect (video stabilization and ultra-wide videos in particular being substandard), but it is better than most mid-range phones \u2013 many of which don\u2019t even have a dedicated telephoto camera.<\/p>\n<p class=\"image-row clearfix\">&#13;<br \/>\n<a onclick=\"javascript:ShowImg2(&quot;news\/26\/01\/weekly-poll-realme-16pro-16proplus\/popup\/gsmarena_001.jpg&quot;);return false\" href=\"#\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Realme 16 Pro+\" width=\"660\" height=\"371\" src=\"https:\/\/fdn.gsmarena.com\/imgroot\/news\/26\/01\/weekly-poll-realme-16pro-16proplus\/popup\/-660\/gsmarena_001.jpg\"\/><\/a>&#13;<br \/>\n<br \/><span><strong>Realme 16 Pro+<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>In <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gsmarena.com\/realme_16_pro_plus-review-2919.php\">our review<\/a>, the phone\u2019s 7,000mAh battery achieved one of the highest Active Use Scores in its class (18:18h). The 80W charging system wasn\u2019t as fast as we would have liked, but it was still plenty fast. The downside of the Pro+ is that at a starting price of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gsmarena.com\/realme_16_pro_is_here_with_200mp_main_cam_and_7000_mah_battery_-news-70962.php\">\u20b940,000<\/a> (for a lowly 8\/128GB config no less), it is \u20b910,000 higher than some of its competition.<\/p>\n<p class=\"image-row clearfix\">&#13;<br \/>\n<a onclick=\"javascript:ShowImg2(&quot;news\/26\/01\/weekly-poll-realme-16pro-16proplus\/popup\/gsmarena_005.jpg&quot;);return false\" href=\"#\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"The 200MP 1\/1.56\u201d camera with an f\/1.9 OIS lens is shared between the two models\" width=\"660\" height=\"372\" src=\"https:\/\/fdn.gsmarena.com\/imgroot\/news\/26\/01\/weekly-poll-realme-16pro-16proplus\/popup\/-660\/gsmarena_005.jpg\"\/><\/a>&#13;<br \/>\n<br \/><span><strong>The 200MP 1\/1.56\u201d camera with an f\/1.9 OIS lens is shared between the two models<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gsmarena.com\/realme_16_pro_5g-14400.php\">Realme 16 Pro<\/a> is cheaper, but at \u20b932,000 it still costs more than some competing mid-rangers. While we haven\u2019t reviewed it yet, it has the same 200MP main camera as the Pro+ (which showed impressive skill in 2x zoom) and the same 7,000mAh battery with 80W charging. However, it loses the periscope, which made the Pro+ special, and it has a less impressive chipset too \u2013 a Dimensity 7300 Max instead of the Snapdragon 7 Gen 4.<\/p>\n<p class=\"image-row clearfix\">&#13;<br \/>\n<a onclick=\"javascript:ShowImg2(&quot;news\/26\/01\/weekly-poll-realme-16pro-16proplus\/popup\/gsmarena_002.jpg&quot;);return false\" href=\"#\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Realme 16 Pro\" width=\"660\" height=\"371\" src=\"https:\/\/fdn.gsmarena.com\/imgroot\/news\/26\/01\/weekly-poll-realme-16pro-16proplus\/popup\/-660\/gsmarena_002.jpg\"\/><\/a>&#13;<br \/>\n<br \/><span><strong>Realme 16 Pro<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>There are a few other downgrades like a plastic frame instead of aluminum and a different glass over the screen.
