Hello, I’m Abrar Khan, and in this article, we’re going to be unboxing and review out the budget-friendly realme 10 Pro. Not just the standard realme 10 Pro, but the limited edition Coca-Cola version. It has the exact same specs and hardware as the original realme 10 Pro, just with a design inspired by Fizzy Pop. Personally, I would have preferred a Glenmarangi limited edition, maybe with some miniature bands in the box, but here we are. So, let’s chek out the realme 10 Pro Coca-Cola Edition and see what that’s all about.

What’s in the box?




Inside of the box filled with Coca-Cola mantras. So, we’ve got a lot of stickers. There are also a couple of extra bits chucked too. You’ve got a can-shaped card which tells you exactly which number of the limited edition you’ve, and some other random stuff on the back. And this, fair enough, I’ve got to admit, is pretty cool.
The Sim pin is actually shaped like a Coca-Cola bottle top. And what else do you get in the box besides, the realme 10 Pro, a 33-watt power adapter, a Type-C USB cable, and a good case to keep your realme 10 Pro safe from harm. I’m kind of surprised there’s no branding on any of that lot, to be honest. It could have been painted red or something.
Realme 10 Pro Design

I’ve actually been using the realme 10 Pro as my full-time smartphone for a long weekend, and I’m shocked that more people haven’t come up to me and said, “Oh, you like Coca-Cola, do you now?” First off, I’m quite surprised by how light the realme 10 Pro is, mostly because I’ve come from the OnePlus 11. This phone only weighs 190 grams, despite being a massive 6.72-inch unit. It’s noticeably lighter than that OnePlus, making it more comfortable to handle one-handed, even though it has those flat edges and no real curves in sight. Obviously, reaching the corners can be a bit of a stretch, but it’s a good thing that there’s a proper one-handed mode on board. Realme reckons you get a boundless display.
While you can certainly pick up the regular realme 10 Pro with a quite sparkly and in-your-face design, I wouldn’t say it’s quite as full-on as this Coca-Cola effort. It’s not exactly a subtle bit of branding. Someone at the printing factory seems to be on the source because that logo has been slashed in half. Realme has added a thick metal effect which apparently looks like brushed aluminum, and it does have that kind of seen to it. However, when you touch the back end of the realme 10 Pro, it is quite clearly constructed from plastic. At least that matte finish means it doesn’t get all marked up, greasy, and grimy. Obviously, how much you like the design will depend on your feelings towards this particular beverage.
Personally, I gotta say it, I’m more of an Iron Brew kind of guy. I definitely need a bright orange smartphone in my life. I do really like the red rings surrounding the camera lenses though. In fact, if you like red, chances are you’ll probably get along with this one. and while this phone is protected against water infiltration, apparently there’s no official IP rating or anything.
Realme UI And Coca Cola Theme

Now, you’ve got the latest Android 13 on the realme 10 Pro. But, as usual, this has been transformed with realme UI 4. So, while Android users should be able to find their way around with no problem whatsoever, you will notice a few changes. On this Coca-Cola Edition, you’ve got an extra bit of fizz to sweeten things with the Coca-Cola theme that is applied by default. It’s got a fairly nondescript wallpaper with just a few little bubbles and a unique lock screen as well, which appears to show the realme cat mascot thing apparently being drowned in fizzy liquid. You’ve also got an official Coca-Cola ringtone, very catchy, and an official Coca-Cola notification sound. I can basically guarantee that every time you get an email, you suddenly get very, very thirsty indeed. You’ve even got a unique charging animation, which is highly exciting stuff.
The rest of the realme 10 Pro is basically your regular realme UI, complete with, unfortunately, a heap of crapware and all kinds of random stuff bundled. Snack Video app, or LinkedIn. And you’ve got Realme Zone, and tons of other stuff that you just want to get rid of. Unfortunately, a lot of these apps you can just straight up uninstall. For your storage needs, you have 128 gigs of space, quite a lot of that unsurprisingly taken up by apps, as you can see. Although, at least 20 gigs worth of that is Genshin Impact. And the delightful news is, you do actually have space inside that symmetry for a Micro SD memory card if you want to expand. I do appreciate how realme has gone for a good old-fashioned edge-mounted fingerprint sensor as well, which, as you can see, is swift and responsive, no worries at all. It’s backed up by a decent bit of Face Unlock as well.
Realme 10 Pro Display

So, Coca Cola Edition sizable 6.72-inch panel on the realme 10 Pro is IPS tech. Sadly, it’s not OLED, but it is at least a reasonably decent IPS screen. So, you don’t get an always-on display, and the contrast isn’t quite as sharp, the blacks not quite as deep. But I am still perfectly happy kicking back with a bit of Netflix, Disney Plus, or whatever. You’ve got full HD Plus resolution visuals, 2400p by 1080p. Viewing angles are certainly wide enough to comfortably watch something with a family member, and I had no problems with maximum brightness when I was outdoors. The selfie camera cutout doesn’t intrude too much into the action when you go full screen, although it is centrally positioned rather than wedged away in a corner.
If you head into the realme 10 Pro’s display settings, you can go to the screen refresh rate. it’s set to Dynamic by default, apparently scaling all the way from 30 Hertz up to 120 Hertz. You can keep it at 120 Hertz full time, and I certainly found the UI to be perfectly smooth during the time I’ve been using this. However, I have noticed in my time with the realme 10 Pro that the screen response can be a bit erratic. Sometimes, when you try to do a gentle scroll, the website or your social media feed will just shoot off.
Audio
The realme 10 Pro also boasts Ultra Boom stereo speakers, a bit of a callback to HTC’s BoomSound phones. I’m not really sure what qualifies them as Ultra Boom exactly. So, you’ve got original, all-type it’s so tough. They’re perfectly okay stereo speakers, not the loudest, and a little bit tinny, to be perfectly honest. But they’re fine for just kicking back with some YouTube or whatever. Not only has the Bluetooth streaming been behaving itself, but you also get a headphone jack.
Performance and Gaming Test

The realme 10 Pro is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 695 chipset, backed by eight gigs of RAM. Not only does this offer you full 5G support, but the everyday running is perfectly smooth. I even found that gaming was respectable enough as well. In the likes of Genshin Impact, you do have to have the graphics set to the lowest possible setting. But the good news is that the frame rate remains fairly stable, even when the action gets a little heated. I actually found the experience quite enjoyable overall.
Realme’s gaming mode is back in action. It’s basically the same as what you’ll find on the likes of Color OS and Oxygen OS these days. There are lots of great tools and features packed away in there, including a performance mode which I maxed out to give Genshin Impact every possible chance of running well. You’ve also got a kind of focused “Do Not Disturb” mode as well, to block out the rest of the world.
Battery life
One of the standout features of the realme 10 Pro these last few days has been the battery life. You’ve got a 5,000 milliamp-hour capacity battery in there, and combined with the energy-efficient 695 chipset, this phone will keep on going all day long, no worries whatsoever.
Even if you’re up at the crack of dawn and not staggering to bed till well after midnight, I found that even with a video chat for an hour, streaming about an hour or two’s worth of Crunchyroll and YouTube, lots of Deezer and podcast action in the background, I generally had at least 30% battery life remaining when I finally collapsed, hopefully in my actual bed.
Nothing too remarkable on the battery charging side of things 33-watt wired charging and of course, there’s no wireless charging, which is to be expected given the budget and plastic construction.
Realme 10 Pro Camera

Let’s talk about the camera tech on the realme 10 Pro. It only has a dual-lens setup, which is quite shocking and remarkable these days. The primary sensor is actually a 108-megapixel Samsung hm6. There is one final bit of Coca-Cola branding that I’ve neglected to mention. When you hit the shutter button, any idea what that sound is? Well, apparently, it’s the sound of a bottle cap being popped. Personally, I just thought there was something wrong with the phone until I read that. Anyway, this phone uses nine-in-one pixel binning on Full Auto, so the realme 10 Pro produces sub-12-megapixel photos that are sharp enough in strong light. Although some of my more ambient picks were rather soft, they were still bright and poppy. Definitely make sure your subject is static in dimmer light too, otherwise, they will come out quite fuzzy. Still, low light results aren’t bad for a budget phone, and the focus copes well, and strong contrast generally doesn’t ruin things either.



You won’t find a telephoto lens on the realme 10 Pro, as you would expect at a budget price. But if conditions are good enough, you can use the 108-megapixel mode instead to capture finer detail, which is ideal for cropping into a shot without the end result being a fuzzy mess. Likewise, there’s no ultra-wide-angle shooter on this phone either, which is kind of annoying when you’re trying to snap something massive. The only other lens on here is a 2-megapixel depth sensor for your portrait shots, but at least that means there’s no pointless macro feature either. The portrait results on the realme 10 Pro are decent, complete with the usual selection of very random filters.
You can also capture simple videos with the realme 10 Pro, although video tops off at Full HD resolution rather than 4K, so the visuals aren’t exactly pin-sharp when viewed back on a laptop or a TV. The stabilization is fine, audio pickup is clear enough, and even in quite ambient light, my test footage wasn’t too swampy. And yes, if you absolutely must shoot some pictures of your own face instead of other people’s, well, you’ve got a 16-megapixel selfie camera on the realme 10 Pro. It does a remarkable job of showing how I didn’t bother to shave this morning. And yes, you can shoot Full HD resolution video with the front-facing camera as well. Again, the audio pickups are absolutely fine, and I’ve had no troubles whatsoever with Skype or Zoom using realme 10 pro coca cola edition.
Verdict
There you have it. I love the realme 10 Pro is a great smartphone. I have the Silver Coca-Cola Edition, which might be a love-it-or-hate-it design, depending on your feelings towards this particular beverage. But if you’re not a fan of fizzy pop, no worries! You can pick up the regular realme 10 Pro, which still has a very jazzy design, but not as corporate or flashy. I enjoyed my time with the realme 10 Pro. It’s a well-specced smartphone for a budget device, and the camera tech is pretty decent, despite its limitations. If you want even better specs, you can upgrade to the realme 10 Pro Plus, but that will cost you a bit more. I’ve done a full unboxing of the Pro Plus on the channel, so check that out.
