Realme 7 series really went overboard with the pricing. This entered Poco X3 territory, where it will be devoured by the mid range killer. Bad move.
I would hands down go for the Poco X3 NFC over this
Recently, Realme is forgetting how to price their phones…
I think if they put a better chip in the 7i it would actually a solid choice
