Even with the flaws the Realme 7 5G includes, the $499 price makes the phone very, very compelling, delivering a big screen and 5G for well below the cost of other big phones with 5G. With 5G being so new that it does cost a premium, it’s rather nice to see a 5G phone that doesn’t ask people to pay...
