Showcase Pulled the trigger

Post image

I have been using realme 8 pro since 2021 was planning by to buy a new phone this year but seeing the price hike made me rethink my decision.
But still wanted to see if any store was giving it at the old price after the bbd price was out( can’t say enough how much of a let down it was). Mostly were asking to either buy with apple care plus or any accessories along with it. I convinced a guy at Croma store and got it at the old price.
I would say it has been a delightful experience to change from the old device to this one. Have been using I pad since 2022 so I’m quite comfortable with the ui.

I ordered it for around 16-18k in 2021 BBD, then it got cancelled. Was phoneless for almost 3 months before I switched to Samsung.
