Display - The Redmi Note 10 5G has a 6.5-inch 2.5D curved Gorilla Glass 3 protected LCD (LTPS) screen with 90Hz refresh rate, AdaptiveSync tech (30/50/60/90Hz), FHD+ 2400 x 1080 resolution, and 405 ppi pixel density.

realme 8 5G has a 6.5-inch 2.5D curved LCD with a 60Hz to 90Hz refresh rate, 180Hz touch sampling rate, FHD+ 2400 x 1080 resolution, and 405 ppi pixel density. It has a notch that houses the dual 16MP selfie setup. It has 600 nits of peak brightness.

The difference in peak brightness is significant in terms of outdoors readability.
