I've made peace with that, the fast recharging covers up for it

Is the realme P1 Pro 5G worth buying at ₹15,999?
Yes — at ₹15,999 the realme P1 Pro 5G is a buy, scoring 4.0 out of 5 against other phones at this price. It is strongest on performance and weakest on value for money.
The ZuPick verdict
This is a well-rounded 5G phone with standout display quality, strong performance and a stabilized main camera. Battery endurance is less impressive, but fast charging and useful design features preserve its appeal.
Pros & cons
The 6.7-inch OLED display combines a sharp 1080x2412 resolution with a fluid 120 Hz refresh rate. Its 950-nit peak brightness also helps with outdoor viewing.
It scores about 605,000 on AnTuTu, making multitasking and casual gaming feel quick for the price. The 8 GB RAM, UFS 3.1 storage and 5G support strengthen the experience.
The 50 MP main camera combines autofocus, f/1.8 optics and OIS for steadier photos and video. It can record 4K at 30 fps, while the 8 MP ultra-wide camera captures broader scenes.
The 5000 mAh battery supports fast 45 W charging and reaches 50% in around 30 minutes. A 20% to 100% charge takes about 52 minutes.
IP65 protection provides reassurance against dust and splashes. Stereo speakers, an on-screen fingerprint reader and a manageable 184-gram body add everyday convenience.
Its tested battery life of 12 hours 24 minutes is adequate rather than exceptional. The fast charging partly offsets the need for more frequent top-ups.
There is no microSD expansion, so buyers should choose the 256 GB version if they keep many games, videos or offline files. Wired headphones also require a USB Type-C adapter.
The phone cannot handle NFC-based tap functions. Buyers who regularly use compatible contactless services may find that inconvenient.
What owners say
From RedditI wanted to share a working fix for anyone using a BSNL SIM on a Realme P1 Pro 5G (or similar devices) who can't get Wi‑Fi calling to turn on. Wi‑Fi Calling Provisioned" toggle was greyed out. I couldn't flip it ON because the phone's software basically disables it for BSNL by default.
I got realme p1 pro for my father 2 weeks back, he is very happy with it.
Is anyone else experiencing overheating issues with the Realme P1 Pro 5G? I love the phone's design and features, but it gets noticeably warm during heavy gaming sessions. Wondering if this is a common problem with the Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 or if I should get mine checked out.
