The Realme 5s is an upgrade to the original version, as it comes with a new sensor for the main camera at the rear panel – the 48MP Samsung GM1. This is a big upgrade from the smallish 12MP sensor of the Realme 5. The other cameras remain the same – 8MP ultrawide, 2MP macro, and 2MP depth sensor. This has the same camera configuration as the Realme 5 Pr0. Check out the full specification and price of the Realme 5s.

The Realme 5s also comes in a new colour – Crystal Red, which now join the Blue and Purple versions. Also, the base memory options has been abandoned, meaning that the 5s starts at 4GB RAM and 64GB storage (with a 128GB option).
