By the end of this article, you will have a clear understanding of their strengths, weaknesses, and how they stack up against one another.

So, without further delay, let’s get started.

Realme 11 Pro vs Lava Agni 2 vs Redmi Note 12 Pro 5G – Price

Realme 11 Pro has come to India with three storage options. You have the 8GB + 128GB base variant available for Rs 23,999. The 8GB + 256GB and the 12GB + 256GB models are priced at Rs 24,999 and Rs 27,999, respectively.

Realme 11 Pro vs Lava Agni 2 vs Redmi Note 12 Pro 5G – Design

When it comes to design, all three brands – Realme, Lava and Redmi – have never shied away from going over the top in every possible aspect. Here too, we have three uniquely designed smartphones. From collaborating with top international designers to adopting sophisticated design patterns, all three brands have gone all out.

Realme 11 Pro’s design is surely one of the most beautiful phones you would come across in this price segment in 2023. Working in collaboration with Matteo Menotto, the former Gucci designer, 11 Pro series seems to have taken inspiration from the city of Milan itself.

The smartphone is sporting a faux-leather finish as the back gets divided into two halves by a glossy textured zip-like finish. This resemble a stitch between two separate fabrics and gives a completely different look to the overall smartphone. The circular camera module at the rear takes, although seems huge, does not protrude much. All in all, the Realme 11 Pro is designed to turn somes heads when in public.

Then, we have Lava Agni 2. Immediately striking is the what we can say for this smartphone. You take the smartphone in your hand and it gives off a premium flagship device feel. Available in a single colour option, the Viridian Green that looks much like Emerald Green, Agni 2’s design approach is curved.

The curved front feels premium to touch and back is made out of frosted glass that does not attract a lot of smudges. In fact, it is almost a smudge or scratch resistant device, if we can make a claim here.

Though, Lava Agni 2 carries such a smooth finish that when coupled with the curvy design, it becomes a lot more slippery than one would be prepared for. Although, the slippery nature of the device shouldn’t be problem, we recommend using the clear case that fortunately comes with the device.

Lastly, we have the Redmi Note 12 Pro that seems to be playing mostly safe when compared to the other two. Redmi is sticking to a boxy design with Note 12 Pro and comes in a glossy glass back panel that acts as a mirror as well as a home for fingerprints. The camera island does protrudes a bit which make the phone wobble when kept on flat surfaces.

Note 12 Pro is simple and straightforward in design. However, the trendy colour choices – Onyx Black, Frosted Blue and Stardust Purple – does seem to be something that would attract younger buyers who are looking for something that is light on their pockets.

When it comes to design, every individual usually has their own preferences and a general opinion is always hard to form. However, if we had to give our vote to one out of these three options in the design department, we would rate Lava Agni 2 as the superior. Lava has really presented something that is give a complete luxurious look and feel that we love.

Remember to stay vigilant, keep your account information confidential, and regularly update your security settings to stay one step ahead of hackers.

Turn on Two-Factor Authentication

Enabling two-factor authentication (2FA) adds an extra layer of security to your Instagram account. When enabled, you’ll be required to provide a verification code in addition to your password when logging in. This code is usually sent to your registered mobile number or generated by an authentication app.

This feature makes it significantly more challenging for hackers to gain unauthorized access to your account, even if they manage to obtain your password.

Step 2 – Go to your profile by tapping on the profile icon located at the bottom right corner of the screen.

Step 3 – Tap on the menu icon (three horizontal lines) at the top right corner of your profile.

Step 4 – From the menu options, select “Settings and Privacy” > Tap on “Account Centre.”

Step 5 – Next, Click on “Password and Security” and select “Two-Factor Authentication.”

Step 6 – Under the Security section, tap on “Two-Factor Authentication” and you will see an option to “Get Started.” Tap on it. Instagram will present you with three options for enabling two-factor authentication, choose your preferred method –

After entering the verification code, two-factor authentication will be enabled for your Instagram account.

Revoke Access to Dubious Third-Party Apps

We often use our Instagram account over time to get access in to various third-party apps or services. It’s essential to periodically review and revoke access to any suspicious or unnecessary apps.

Visit the “Authorized Apps” section in your Instagram account settings and carefully assess the permissions granted to each app. Remove access for any app that you no longer use or that seems suspicious.

This way you reduce the chances of compromised apps accessing your account and potentially compromising your security.

Make Sure Your Email Account Is Secure

Your email account plays a crucial role in the security of your Instagram account since it is often used for password resets and account recovery. Always ensure that your email account is protected with a strong password and enabled with two-factor authentication. Regularly monitor your email account for any suspicious activity, such as unrecognized login attempts or password change notifications. If you suspect any unauthorized access, immediately update your email account’s password and review its security settings.

Pick a Strong Password

Last but not the least, a strong password is where you win half the battle. It is one of the fundamental steps to safeguard your Instagram account and choosing a strong and unique password should never be taken lightly.

Avoid common mistakes like using easily guessable passwords or reusing passwords across multiple platforms. Opt for a combination of uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters. Consider using a reliable password manager to generate and securely store your passwords. Regularly update your password and refrain from sharing it with anyone.

Learn about Phishing

Phishing is a common technique used by hackers to trick users into revealing their login credentials and personal information. Stay informed about different phishing tactics is significant not only for Instagram users but for every average internet users. Knowing how hackers might trick you can help you to recognize and avoid falling victim to such attacks.

Be cautious of dubious emails, messages, or links that ask for your Instagram login details or sensitive information. Always verify the authenticity of requests before sharing any information. If you encounter a suspicious message or link, report it to Instagram and refrain from clicking on it.

Also note that legitimate organizations, including Instagram, will never ask you to provide your password or personal details through unsolicited messages.

Educate yourself about common phishing red flags and stay vigilant to protect your Instagram account from these fraudulent tactics.

Why Hackers Taget Instagram accounts?

Instagram has become a prime target for hackers due to its immense popularity and the vast amount of personal information and valuable data associated with user accounts. Here are some of the reasons why hackers are motivated to target Instagram accounts:

Personal Information: Instagram users often share personal information on their profiles, such as full names, email addresses, phone numbers, and even location details. Hackers can exploit this information for identity theft, social engineering attacks, or to gain unauthorized access to other accounts linked to the compromised Instagram account.

Financial Gain: Influencers, businesses, and popular Instagram accounts with a large following can be lucrative targets for hackers. They may attempt to gain control over these accounts to carry out scams, promote malicious content, or extort money from the account owner or their followers.

Reputation Damage: By compromising an Instagram account, hackers can tarnish the account owner’s reputation by posting inappropriate or offensive content, spreading false information, or engaging in malicious activities. This can have severe consequences for individuals, influencers, or businesses.

Data Mining: Instagram accounts contain a wealth of data that can be mined and used for various purposes. Hackers may harvest user data for illicit activities, blackmail, or even selling on the dark web.

Select “Security” and then “Password” to update your password. Choose a strong, unique password that hasn’t been used elsewhere and avoid using easily guessable information.

Check for Suspicious Activity: Review your account activity to identify any suspicious actions. Look for unfamiliar posts, comments, or direct messages that you didn’t make. Check if your account settings, profile information, or linked email addresses have been changed without your knowledge.

Report the Incident to Instagram: Use the “Report a Problem” feature within the Instagram app to report the compromised account. Explain the situation, provide relevant details, and follow any instructions or prompts given by Instagram.

Answer. The recovery process looks different for everyone, but you should expect this to take a couple of weeks on average (a minimum of 5-10 business days).

Q2. What to do if your are unable to log into your Instgram account?

Answer. If you think your account has been hacked or an attempt to hack your account has been made and you’re still able to log in, there are things you can do to help keep your account secure:

Change your password or send yourself a password reset email.
Turn on two-factor authentication for additional security.
Confirm your phone number and email address in account settings are correct.
Check Accounts Center and remove any linked accounts you don’t recognize.
Revoke access to any suspicious third-party apps.

Q3. How do hackers get passwords?

Answer. Phishing is one of the most common ways that hackers gain access to other people’s login data. Phishing emails often contain links that lead to fake websites designed to trick you into entering your password.

Q4. How do hackers get usernames?

Answer. The easiest and most common way that hackers get passwords is from data breaches, in which huge amounts of user data has already been leaked or stolen from companies. This data, which often includes usernames and passwords, is compiled into databases and may be sold on the dark web or downloaded freely on forums.

Q5. How to recover a hacked Instagram account

Answer. If you suspect your Instagram account has been hacked, there are several steps to follow to regain control of your account.

Hackers usually change your password right away, but sometimes you’ll get lucky and still be able to access your account through a saved login. If that’s the case, immediately change your password, and enable all the security precautions we discussed in the previous section.

If you can’t log in, check your inbox for an email from security@mail.instagram.com. Instagram may reach out to you if they detect suspicious activity. When caught early, changes can be reversed.

You can also request a login link from Instagram by selecting “get helping logging in” on an Android or “forgot password” on an iPhone. If the login link doesn’t work, you’ll need to request a security code. After that, Instagram will ask you to verify your identity by submitting a photo of yourself holding a paper with the security code written on it.

Unfortunately, the process is both complex and time-consuming. Instagram also doesn’t guarantee account recovery, which is why we highly recommend being proactive about your Instagram account security.

Q6. Why do hackers take Instagram?

Answer. Most hackers do this immediately so they can keep control of your account for themselves. They may even hold your Instagram account for ransom and request bitcoin or other plunder for you to get it back. If that’s the case, you’ll need to report the activity to Instagram by following the step-by-step instructions here.

Q7. How to change your Instagram password?

Answer. Tap in the top right, then tap Settings and privacy. Tap See more in Accounts Center, then tap Password and security. Tap Change password, then tap the account you’d like to change your password. Enter your current password and then enter your new password.

Realme 11 Pro Review

Realme 11 Pro – Unboxing

Realme 11 Pro comes in a strikingly yellow retail box with 11 Pro branding on top and different product details printed on all sides.

Interestingly, the top of the box also mentions Realme as the “Most Trusted Technology Brand,” which although is debatable but is quite obvious the brand wants to establish as a fact.

As you lift the lid and pull open the top of the box, you’re greeted with another yellow paper box on top. This paperbox packs a soft transparent case for the device, Realme Quick Guide, Realme Safety Guide and the SIM ejector tool tucked in a paper holder.

Next, keeping the above items aside, we are greeted with the Realme 11 Pro smartphone itself. Wrapped in a plastic pack with pre-applied protective screenguard, the device is safely tucked in the box.

As you carefully remove the plastic wrap of the device and sophisticated leather design of the phone will become instant favorite of many users.

Beneath the phone, you’ll find a compartment containing the essential accessories. First, there is the fast charger built in glassy yet sleek design.

This powerful charger, coupled with the 80W SUPERVOOC charging technology, will make sure that you never have to wait long to power up your phone. Lastly, we also get the USB Type-C Cable bundled inside the box.

However, we would like to point out that even though Realme has bundled an 80W charging adapter with 11 Pro, the device supports 67W fast charging.

Overall, the unboxing experience of the Realme 11 Pro showcases the thoughtful design and attention to detail that went into creating this remarkable smartphone. We specially appreciate when brands pack a soft case for immediate use and ensures to have a pre-applied screen protector.

Realme 11 Pro – Design

The very first thing that we want to point out about the Realme 11 Pro is that we hope no one uses it with a cover.

From the very first look at the device, its unique and attractive back panel finish has become our absolute favourite. We have to appreciate Realme for the design and the form factor of this device.

The back of the phone has a stylish and unique premium vegan leather design with textured finish. It also has this golden strip in a diferent material in the middle lengthwise that appears with a stitched pattern around it.

There is also a golden rim around the smartphone that gives off a unique stylish feel to the overall design.

The big round camera island might not be everybody’s cup of tea but what we can say is that it seamlessly fits into the overall design pattern. And even though it seems quite huge and eye-catchy in itself, it somehow doesn’t come across as over the top.

About the design, what we can confidently say is that the 11 Pro or as a matter of fact the entire 11 Pro series are by far one of the most premium looking and well-built smartphones in their respective price segment.

The smartphone has a well-balanced heft and it’s definitely not too heavy to hold either. The sleek and sophisticated vegan leather design instantly gives the phone a premium feel.
The texture of the vegan leather provides a comfortable grip, ensuring that the device feels secure in your hand.

The realme 11 Pro is also available in a few cool colour options besides the Sunrise Beige variant we had for this review. There is also a green colour variant called Oasis Green and a black colour option named, the Astral Black. All of the colour variants look equally stunning with the stylish back finish.

Surprisingly, we also noticed that our review unit, even after roughly using for a couple of days, has not attracted dirt or stains at the back.
Initially, by looking at the back panel, we were a little skeptical that the leather finish might be susceptible to dirt easily but to our suprise, it’s absolutely good as new.

It also comes with 0.65mm double-reinforced glass that protects the display from scratches and minor impacts, ensuring longevity and peace of mind.

Overall, from its premium vegan leather finish to the golden rim around the device, Realme 11 Pro is a smartphone that seamlessly blends innovation and style when it comes to designing.

Realme 11 Pro – Display and Multimedia Experince

The display of the Realme 11 Pro is a standout feature that truly elevates the overall user experience. The 6.7-inch curved vision AMOLED display provides ample space for immersive content consumption whether you’re browsing the web, watching videos, or playing games.

The resolution of 2412×1080 (FHD+) ensures sharp and detailed visuals with vibrant colors. The screen-to-body ratio of 93.65% maximizes the screen real estate, resulting in a more immersive viewing experience with minimized bezels.

We started off with the device by streaming some YouTube content and the experience was top-notch for the segment. The images and videos appear crisp and lifelike, making every visual element pop with clarity.

Take a look at this video and see for yourself.

The high refresh rate of up to 120Hz brings smoothness to the user interface and scrolling experience. Navigating through apps, websites, and menus feels incredibly fluid and responsive, reducing any lag or stutter.

Combined with the touch sampling rate of 360Hz and an instantaneous touch sampling rate of up to 1260Hz, the touch response is precise and accurate, enhancing overall usability.

The display’s contrast ratio of 5,000,000:1 helps in enhancing the overall depth and richness of colors, bringing content to life with impressive clarity and detail.

Apart from the captivating visuals of the Realme 11 Pro, we also soon discovered that its audio features are equally steller.

The Super Linear Dual Speakers deliver immersive sound quality, allowing you to enjoy movies, music, and games with enhanced audio depth and clarity. The speakers produce rich, detailed audio that fills the room, providing an engaging and enveloping multimedia experience.

Then we have the Dolby Atmos support and Hi-Res Audio Certification that together creates a three-dimensional sound field, making you feel like you’re in the middle of the action.

In our overall experience with the device, we loved Realme 11 Pro for the stellar multimedia experience it has to for in this price segment. The device combines its impressive audio and display features to create a truly captivating experience for all including multimedia enthusiast, a gamer, or a general smartphone user.

Realme 11 Pro – Hardware and Performance

So, what about the hardware and overall performance of the phone? Let’s take a closer look.

Realme has packed the Dimensity 7050 processor in both the 11 Pro series variants, which is 11 Pro and 11 Pro Plus. But let’s stick to 11 Pro here since that’s the device we are looking at.

Along with Dimensity 7050 5G Chipset, 11 Pro gets up to 12 GB RAM and 256 GB UFS storage. The base variant starts at 8 GB RAM. Now, the Improvement regarding hardware of 11 Pro stops here.

Now, there is nothing to complain about because the Dimensity 7050 is actually a rebranded version of Dimensity 1080 chipset, which we got to see last year as well.
We carried out some basic benmark tests and the scores of 7050 looked quite similar to the previous scores of 1080 chipset.

In normal day-to-day usage for a regular smartphon user such as streaming movies or browsing the web, we didn’t notice any lags as such.

To further understand the performance capabilities of Realme 11 Pro, we carried out some standard performance oriented benchmark tests starting with the AnTuTu test and Geekbench 6 tets. Here are some test results –

Here’s the ANTUTU score screenshot, which is more than decent.

We also performed the Work 3.0 Performance Score to monitor battery charge percentage, temperature and CPU Clock GHz.

Now, let’s move on to what many users eagerly want to know about – the Gaming performance of the phone. So, back to playing BGMI on Realme 11 Pro.

We played extreme FPS on smooth graphics and it was pretty smooth with no as such noticeable dribbles. We did notice that after playing for about 10 to 15 minutes continuously, the device does get a little bit warm around the camera island at the back. So, if you are one of those users who are planning on using the device for regular heavy games, make sure you note this detail out.

Overall, the gaming experience on 11 Pro was smooth and you always get around 59 to 60 FPS display while playing a game like BGMI.

Let’s talk about the software experience of 11 Pro a bit more.

The one place where Realme needed the most improvement considering some of their last released smartphones is software experience. And from the couple of days we have managed to spend with 11 Pro, our experience of these two days is average at best.

Starting with the good thing, Realme 11 Pro comes with Android 13 right out of the box and it promises three years of software updates and four years of security updates. This is definitely a good thing by all means.

Having said that, our experience with the phone remains average because of tedious setup process. The setup process would take any regular user long because of the number of irrelevant apps Realme has decided to pre-install in 11 Pro.

One you complete the initial setup, you will have apps such as Mod, Joe, Snapchat, LinkedIn and a lot more eating up space. Moreover, if you search for a particular app on the app search bar, you will be greeted with ads at the bottom of similar apps.

So much bloatware hampers the overall experience of any smartphone and it is time Realme takes a good hard look at this issue.

Yes, you do get options to uninstall unnecessary apps and turn off all these ads. However, the ads settings are hidden deep inside the system settings, which seems quite a tedious task.

So, overall while Realme has definitely improved software from last few smartphones in the numberered series, the experience still has a lot of scope for improvement.

Realme 11 Pro – Camera Capabilities

Now, the department where Realme has made a tremendous progress is the camera of both the devices of 11 Pro Series.

Realme 11 Pro has a massive 100-megapixel main ProLight camera with Optical Image Stabilisation technology support. This technology helps to counteract handshakes and minor movements, resulting in sharper and clearer images, especially in low-light or challenging shooting conditions.

To start with, we tried checking how the OIS holds up in practical sense and the results were pretty good. We set the phone in video mode before facing the lens and move the device to clearly notice that the lens were also moving along.

So, the OIS in this phone actually works both in the photo and video mode and it is not like many other phones in the market who advertise the OIS but it doesn’t really work at all times.

Next, we experimented with some shots. And the pictures from the main camera came out quite good. Check out the slide show below to see all the shots taken from the camera.

ArtificialLight_Indoors_PotraitMode_2x View Shot

ArtificialLight_Indoors_PotraitMode_2x View Shot_2

There is one thing we noticed in most of the pictures taken from the 100 MP camera. The camera automatically brightens the main object in the field. At first glance, the images appear decent enough.

However, as you zoom-in, you will notice soft edges and an artificial effect. This is usually called ghosting in photography and this usually happens because of HDR processing.

In addition to the primary camera, the Realme 11 Pro features a 2MP Portrait Camera. This camera is specifically designed to capture stunning portrait shots with a pleasing background blur. Here’s an example.

Furthermore, we have a 16MP front camera for selfies and video calls. The 16MP front camera of the Realme 11 Pro is equipped with a 5P lens configuration. This lens system promises to optimize image quality and helps to reduce distortion.

In our test of the front camera, the results were actually a lot better than we initially expected. The selfies came out sharp and free from unwanted artifacts, which we particularly liked.

The front camera also comes with loads of additional camera features that can come handy for any social media creator or specific people who use their front camera a lot.
The additional selfie camera features inlcude a Portrait Mode, Pano, AI Beauty Mode, Face Recognition, Filters, Super Nightscape and AI Scene Recognition.

Now, let’s talk about the videos.

You can shoot videos maximum in 4k 30 FPS and the video recording capability would definitely impress most users. Below are two sample videos taken at different time and place of the day and you can easily notice the video and audio quality is both daylight and night time.

Also, for extra stabilization you will have to turn on the Super Stabilization. However, turning on that features means the video recording will be capped at a maximum of 1080P.

This video is just walking in the park and you can notice the video is extremely stable. Moreover, you can get portrait video, which is good. But again, this can only record to a maximum of up to 720P.

Overall, the Realme 11 Pro’s camera features offer a compelling photography experience. The 100MP OIS ProLight Camera delivers exceptional image quality with its high-resolution sensor and advanced optics. The inclusion of a dedicated Portrait Camera further enhances the versatility of the camera system.

Whether you’re a photography enthusiast or a casual smartphone photographer, the Realme 11 Pro’s camera capabilities for this price segment are sure to impress, allowing you to capture stunning photos with ease and precision.

Realme 11 Pro – Battery

Let’s delve into the battery features to understand how they contribute to the overall battery performance of the device.

The Realme 11 Pro boasts a powerful standard battery that ensures long-lasting usage and quick charging capabilities. With a massive battery capacity of 5000mAh (typ) and 4870mAh (min), the Realme 11 Pro offers ample power to keep you connected and productive throughout the day.

Whether you’re browsing the web, streaming media, playing games, or multitasking between apps, the substantial battery capacity ensures that you can rely on your device for extended periods without the need for frequent charging.

The 67W SUPERVOOC Charge technology allows you to recharge your device rapidly, minimizing downtime. With the included 80W charging adapter, you can quickly replenish the battery to its full capacity in a remarkably short time.

We tried to test fast charge. For this, we drained the battery to 1 per cent and then tracked the charging time. Equipped with 67W SuperVOOC charge technology, it tool Realme 11 Pro just about 32 minutes to charge from 2 per cent to 100 per cent power.

The Realme 11 Pro’s battery is equipped with a USB Type-C port, which promises versatile and convenient charging. The USB Type-C port offers faster data transfer speeds and a reversible design.

Verdict

So, what’s the conclusion, should you consider the Realme 11 Pro as your next smartphone upgrade? Did Realme really fix the issues from last year well? Well, the answer to all these questions is a yes and a no.

Realme has definitely shown some extraordinary improvement in certain departments such as the display, design and camera. However, concerns from last like the substandard software experience because of ads and tons of bloatware still remains an issue.

In Realme’s defence, we can say that the bloatware can be deleted and certain software issues can be fixed with software upgrades.
What we are concerned about the ads you see in every app search and even when you download a new app. There are settings to turn off these adds, but that is hidden deep inside.

As for the positives, the camera system with the 100 MP primary lens and OIS technology is one of the key highlights of the device. The curved display along with leather finish back design completes the overall premium feel of the device. We wish Realme had added an ultra-wide lens and this would have been perfect.

All in all, Realme 11 Pro stands out as a strong contender in the mid-range smartphone segment. Available in three variants of 8GB/128GB, 8GB/256GB, and 12GB/256GB, 11 Pro price in India starts at Rs 23,999.

Now, this may seem a bit expensive to some when compared to a couple of other devices in the market, but with 11 Pro Realme is presenting a truely premiun looking phone with flagship-like experience that deserves appreciation.

FAQs on Realme 11 Pro

Q1. How is the audio and sound quality of Realme 11 Pro?

Answer. Calling quality is decent as the antenna matrix 2.0 increases signal strength even when the device is in any underground area. The voices are clear on both ends and there is no hanging up due to low/weak signals. The Realme 11 Pro comes with Dolby Atmos stereo speakers and though they are loud and audible in a crowded room, the quality of the audio when watching content is not at par with the video quality. The audio lacks character, especially at higher volumes. This small niggle could have been avoided to make the overall content-watching experience even smoother.
