Review
DESIGN
Dazzling
design, with a beautiful gradient color finish, the sort of design that
you can really brag about. Fast, effective fingerprint sensor. Fast,
effective face unlock, but The Realme 3's glossy back, of course,
attracts plenty of smudges very easily.
DISPLAY
Large,
modern, bright, 6.22 inch, dewdrop notch screen, with good viewing
angles. But it's Screen resolution is on the low side and Sunlight
legibility also could have been better.
SOFTWARE
The
new and improved ColorOS 6.0 is now lighter and more refined. Isn't
strewn with ads like Redmi phones (which are going to be the main
competition here) now tend to be.
PERFORMANCE
Excellent,
unmatched performance for this price bracket with a powerful Helio P70
chipset at the core (similar to the Snapdragon 660) - it will steamroll
through anything you throw at it, including high-end games like PUBG
(which easily runs at 30fps).
CAMERA
Decent
dual camera setup on the rear, with AI features (can recognize 16
independent scenes and 100 scene combinations). Does reasonably well in
good lighting conditions with decent resolved detail, decent contrast,
and accurate colors. New modes like Chroma Boost and Night mode, can be
handy at times.
Decent
portrait mode too - subject separation works well, there aren't many
abrupt transitions from sharp to blurred, and the bokeh is nice. Decent
selfie camera too, with good detail, nice colors and sharp enough
images. The selfie cam also offers simulated bokeh, and it does a ok
job. But, Average video recording performance, there's no stabilisation,
so footage is shaky if you move about too much and low light
photography is nothing to write home about.
BATTERY
Impressive
battery backup with a large 4230mAh battery, you will end a full use
day with a comfortable 35 - 40% left in the tank.
CONCLUSION
Realme
3 is very likely another big hit from the Realme brand, especially for
the exceptional (and unmatched) performance it brings to this price
bracket. But, honestly there are some very good competitors in a
slightly higher bracket though like the Redmi Note 7, and Realme U1,
which have similar hardware but higher resolution displays, so you might
want to look at these especially if display quality is key for you.
