Realme 3 - User Reviews

  • does this phone support mhl?

  • hey you seem knowlegdeable about phones. can i ask the difference between realme 5 and realme 3? i plan to buy one but dont know what to choose. the only problem i dislike about realme 5 is that sd 665 performs worse than p60 so i dont know if i can sacrifice the phone performance over the better camera and bigger battery.

  • Whoa... You got that angry? Lol call me a paid promotor because you can't defend your points? There's no such job lmao. I've been helping Redmi Note 7 users with advise for months, including the best Gcam for them. Your arguments are that of a 10 years old. 80% of my reply to you is going to be just educating you about phones. First of all, I've told you to check Redmi Note 7 reviews wherever you want. Be it on Gsmarena, random Facebook groups, its discussion forums on Xiaomi's own website. You will find all of the problems I mentioned. Challenge accepted? Camera is the only reliable thing in RN7. DON'T BE A FANBOY. 1. I've never said Realme 3 display is better than RN7. What I've said is this: RN7 has a lot complaints about its display, speaker, battery, performance, heating, charging time, built quality while Realme 3 has one of the least complaints and best built quality among all budget - midrange phones. Agaiy, go check the reviews. 2. Stop lying. Realme 3 only takes 2h 20ish minutes to charge its 4230 mAh battery with 10watt charger. There are hundreds of charging speed videos on YouTube as a proof and also of RN7. If it had 4000mAh battery, it would take 2h 10ish minutes. Redmi Note 7 has smaller 4000 mAh battery with 18 watt charger. It doesn't have proper hardware support to charge 80% faster than Realme 3, but you don't know about technical stuff, do you? :) Do the Math. RN7 should be charging in around 1h 20 minutes. Not close to 2 hours (as you said yourself). That's why I said it charges in *about* same time as 10watt Micro USB phones like Realme 3, Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1/M2. If you still don't get it, I've got one word for you: Fanboy. 3. "BUILT QUALITY" is not same as "PREMIUM FEEL". Redmi Note 7 is NOT a premium phone just because it has a glass back, it's a budget phone. Premium phones have glass backs to support Wireless Charging, are you saying RN7 supports it?? Realme 3 is much more durable than RN7. It has better built quality on both paper and reality. A YouTuber (Gupta Information. Go watch it) dropped Realme 3 from 10 feet height multiple times and it didn't get any damage. Not a single scratch on its display or any damage. There are dozens of videos of it being dropped from 6 feet. Just buy a "back paper sticker" and you don't even need its case. Better than broken back :) If you think RN7 can survive that, make a video of dropping your RN7 from 10 feet and upload to YouTube. I promise that I'll be the first to hit like button on your video :D My RN7 back was scratched just by putting it in same pocket as my earphones!! Not keys, but earphones! Is that Gorilla Glass 6?? - Secondly, mobile brands rarely ever use REAL GORILLA GLASS, so having bigger # of Gorilla Glass doesn't mean better scratch resistance. Only way to test it is via ACTUAL TEST. And according to that, both RN7 & Realme 3 scratch at LVL 6. The fact you didn't know something so obvious should tell you that you don't have enough knowledge about phones to talk about them. Fun fact: Gorilla Glass is only for scratch resistance. It doesn't mean it is stronger against drops. That was debunked in 2014. More basic knowledge for you: - Plastic is most durable but has low scratch resistance, so it needs back paper sticker. - Metal has both: durability and scratch resistance. It doesn't need any protection, so it's best. - Glass is least durable (obviously), so it needs a back cover. It does have better scratch resistance than plastic, but it's not good enough to not use a cover or a sticker. 4. Excuse me?? Where did I said Nokia 8 has better battery "back up" than RN7? Your English is just as bad as your knowledge on phones. This is what I said: Nokia 8 has better battery endurance in games like PUBG than RN7. RN7 lasts 4h 30 minutes in PUBG while Nokia 8 lasts 5ish hours. RN7 has lowest battery endurance out of all 4000mAh battery phones. This was an example of how bad it is on heavy usage compared to a 3090mAh phone. LMFAO, find me a single user review of RN7 on Gsmarena where anyone said its battery lasts 6+ hours in PUBG. I'll wait!!! xD I've been following RN7 reviews on Gsmarena for months and almost all users said it lasts around 4h 30min in PUBG. I caught you lying red-handed. My Realme 3 lasts between 7-8 hours normally in PUBG and if I use GFX Tool, it lasts 10+ hours. And once again, you don't know what you're talking about because PUBG runs on HD resolution by default on Android phones. So both RN7 and Realme 3 play PUBG on SAME RESOLUTION. 5. NOPE. Don't even try. Snapdragon 660, Helio P60, Helio P70 and Kirin 710 are all similarly powerful. You'll need to use a FPS counter to check any difference in performance. But Kirin 710 is overall better because it has a buffer which helps pull stable FPS compared to the other two while SD660 supports higher MP camera. If you still haven't realised, I know 10 times more about everything you're talking about. Secondly, why are you making "guesses" when you claim to own both phones??I know for a fact Realme 3 plays PUBG better than RN7 because: - I've used both phones AND there are hundreds of gameplay videos of RN7 lagging and also some of Realme 3 playing PUBG on HDR. Please tell me where can I find proof of RN7 at least being able to perform equally? MIUI is worst OS out of all. I don't recall seeing any MIUI phone having same performance as other OS phones with same chipset. This is why RN7 performance is lower than: - Underclocked SD660 phone like Asus Zenfone Max Pro M2 - Snapdragon 636 phones like Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1. - Nokia 8 with Stock Android, SD 835 beats Pocofone F1 with MIUI, SD 845 in performance. Pocofone F1 can manage FHD graphics in PUBG at best and heats up after 2 hours despite its cooling system. Meanwhile, I can play PUBG on Ultra HD on Nokia 8 without heating unless I charge at the same time. 6. Once again, where did I said Colos OS is good? You need English classes or Eye Glasses. I merely stated the fact that Color OS allows greater control on your device than MIUI, EMUI, Funtouch. You'll normally need to root your phone to do the kind of tweaks Color OS lets you do. MIUI doesn't even lets you do half of them. My Realme 3 loses 0% battery over night in 2+ months of my use. I can't think of any other phone that can manage that. My RN7 used to lose 3-4% at first and then started losing up to 9% overnight. In less than 2 months. With everything I've shared above and made very easy for you to fact check, I believe we can both agree on the following (if you fact checked): (i) MIUI offers lower performance than phones with other OS. Even Xiaomi's own phones like MI A2 outperforms RN7. It has SD660 & Android One. (ii) MIUI phones have one of the worst battery endurance due to heavy load of MIUI. (iii) Their specs are just for show. They never offer you real quality. You said MIUI has better software support. My question is: (i) Then why does RN7 still has same bugs it did when it came out? (ii) Why is that almost every time there is a MIUI update on any phone, new bugs are found? (iii) Why is it that everyone MIUI phone owner on XDA, the biggest Android Developers platform, is asking how to get rid of MIUI? Why do they want to use other OS or even Stock Android instead of MIUI? (iv) What is your definition of better software support? Because if it's stability of OS like mine then MIUI is worst of them all. I hope it's not "I waste my time downloading 100s of MBs worth updates every month which mess up my phone every time". Funfact: OS skins like MIUI, Color OS, EMUI, FunTouch and others can only DECREASE your device performance and battery - and they cause your phone to heat up more. Stock Android and Android One are the only OS that allows maximum performance and battery with least heating. - Why? Because OS Skins need to take chipset power for themselves. And you say MIUI, which uses up most resources out all OS has best performance than all other OS? Go away, FANBOY.

  • People*

  • You are jus a Highly paid Realme promoter! Everything is bad in Redmi note 7 right?? Are we fool to you?? Camera is not the only thing of Redmi note 7... Even a casual user can tell you that Display is also a major update... Don't promote the product and don't play with other peoples with your fake reviews... Redmi note 7 has Gorilla glass 5 on both front and back where as Realme 3 has Gorilla glass 3 only on front... There is no any water protection so you don't have to give paid review about water test... You don't even know about premium materials... 1) Realme 3 has 720p vs Redmi note 7 has 1080p with more DPIs and superior brightness nits... 2) Realme 3 tooks 2h 50m to get full charge where as Redmi note 7 tooks 1h 50m with 18w charger, so highly paid promoter who told you that Realme tooks 2h?? And 10w and 18w are same?? There is a huge difference... Claps for you! 3) Every premium phone is recognised as a Glass or Metal back design (you should use first then you'll know) and the same premium glass sandwich design is used in Redmi note 7 with plastic frame... Both front panels (Realme and Redmi) scratches at level 6 hardness scale so why are you telling this only for Realme 3?? Any reason?? Where as back panel of Redmi note 7 is made of glass and it's can't be scratched with materials of level 5 or less and Realme 3 back plastic can be scratched even with level 1 ( even with cloth rubbing)... And for your kind information, even the iPhone 11 can't survive the drop test because of Glass material and it's premium, kid! There is not a single problem about Redmi note 7's display... If you'll leave your promotional job then you'll never find any issue on other phones... 4) now the battery, you said your Nokia 8 has better battery backup than your Redmi note 7, wow what a funny joke... Nokia 8 battery backup is not even close to good backup so leave this phone and come to Realme 3 and Redmi note 7... Both can play pubg for more than 6 hours with 70% brightness and Realme 3 battery backup is about 1h 30m more than the Redmi note 7 because of 230mah extra power, 720p display and 12nm efficient processor... 5) Redmi note 7's SD 660 is more powerful than the Realme 3's Helio P60 especially in GPU department so the games can be played better in Redmi note 7 than Realme 3... Even the benchmark scores are better and your fake review is comparing SD660 to SD636 lol... Let me clear you kid, I have also used Redmi note 5 (SD 636)... Have a look kid! SD 636 < Helio P60 < SD 660... Don't try to fool people with your foolish knowledge... 6) Almost the whole world knows that ColorOS is way worst than the Miui and you said the opposite words... Miui and ColorOS both are buggy and incomplete but the Miui (Xiaomi) is way more superior with Easy to use, better development support, better performance, has more features and can be used without any root or teaks because Camera Api's are also enabled... Overall Miui is way way better than ColorOS... Bonus: you can't even turn off the feature ( press power button to end call) on ColorOS... You should change your promotional job and stay away with your fake reviews

  • I've used RN7 too. I wrote quite a few angry reviews about it back in February/March. I'm just more informed than you are. Only thing RN7 really has Realme 3 beat is camera. Only real shortcoming of Realme 3 is video recording. 1. Redmi Note 7 has Type C & 18watt charging but it charges at about same rate as Micro USB 10watt charging phones like Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1/M2 and Realme 3. Around 2 hours for 4000mAh. That's premium? That's fast? 2. Redmi Note 7 quality is among worst 3 phones I know of. What you're talking about is called *premium feel*, not quality. It has most issues and complaints than any other budget/midrange phone, including battery endurance, slow charging, heating, speaker problems, screen problem etc. Read RN7 reviews and I'm sure you'll find 100+ of these complaints in just last few months. I faced all of them except screen problem, and yes I bought it from official retailer. Realme 3 is among most durable phones you'll find. It can survive 10 feet drop without any damage and work fine. The display scratches at level 6 and it works fine after being submerged in water for 2+minutes. Only phone that comes close to as durable is Honor 10 Lite. FYI: You can apply special back stickers for its back. You don't need to use cover. 3. Redmi Note 7 has lower battery endurance than my Nokia 8 with its 3090mAh battery in games. N8 lasts 5.5 hours while RN7 lasts 4.5 hours on same graphic settings of PUBG. Its battery endurance is one of the lowest among 4000mAh phones. So low that 14nm chipset phones like Max Pro M1 battery lasts about twice as long. After some system tweaks in settings, my Realme 3 lasts minimum 8-12 hours in PUBG depending on graphics/speaker/network etc. 4. Redmi Note 7 has lowest performance out of all Snapdragon 660 phones. Even some Snapdragon 636 phones like Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1 offer better performance. Asus Zenfone Max Pro M2 has a under clocked SD 660 and yet it outperforms Redmi Note 7. 5. MIUI is worst OS of all. It has most bugs, most unstable, most heavy and battery draining OS. Color OS isn't good either, but it gives you most control over your phone than any other OS (at least more than Funtouch, EMUI, MIUI and OneUI). That's why I was able to tweak it so much without root.

  • I have used both phones... Are you sure about your comments?? Because RN7 has better build quality (almost premium) where as Realme 3's back plastic can be scratched even with cloth.... RN7 has better rear camera, better software support, better display, USB type C with fast charging and better sound from speaker.... I'm currently RM3 so you don't have to protect the phone that you are using... Say the truth

  • RN7 is only good for its camera. It has lower performance, battery timing and bad built quality than Realme 3. There are a lot of issues reported about it as well. Read its reviews wherever you like.

  • Yeah from QHD to HD+ us a huge difference... You should go for 1080p

  • I'm downgrading from a 1440p display (Galaxy s8) due to budget reasons. I guess I'll just buy the Redmi note 7 since it's screen is at least better than the RM3.

  • I have used many versions of GCam on my Realme 3 and night mode (night sight) of GCam is really impressive... You can see even in very low light environments but I haven't found any major difference in the normal mode shots... I prefer the Stock camera app which is stable, fast and image quality is also good... Don't relay on GCam before buying any phone...

  • Realme 3's screen is pretty good but if you'll compare directly to 1080p display you'll notice the difference... No doubt 1080p (Redmi note 7 or any) display is almost 30% to 40% more superior than 720p... I have downgraded from 1080p (Redmi Note 6 Pro) to 720p (Realme 3)... Yeah you'll notice difference while watching video content but otherwise you can't even notice any difference... Display of Realme 3 is pretty good

  • help me decide I'm torn between the redmi note 7 and the realme 3. I only play mobile legends (plan to play black desert and lol mobile in the future) and I also only watch anime and read manga on a phone, now, is the screen for realme 3 not good for watching and reading (720p) or is it good? if ao which is better? RN7 or RM3?

  • Hey could further explain about these gcam thing and how it vastly improved realme 3 camera to beat realme 5's? Last thing, i hear about these defects about lagging on normal usage, do many people encounter that? Thank you so much for the reply!

  • Hi, I'm going to buy a phone this week. Is the screen really that bad since it's only 720p? Planning to buy an RN7 or this one or a realme 5. TY.

  • Bro i said what i face. I might got a defective unit.

  • Hope everyone is doing well. well i already posted several time regarding Gcam. i installed several time on my realme 3 but still have the same issue when i open panorama mode or video it close immediately. one of guy already shared the guideline but its not work for me. so anyone can help me here that how to install and what step should be follow. i download it from the following Link. Thank you everyone Camera_v1.4.032219.1950build-6.1.021.apk

  • It seems that you have a problem with your unit as there's a lot of other comments saying otherwise. Anyway, thanks for the reply.

  • Realme 3 is better. I said Realme 5 has poor built quality when it was new and now people are complaining about display problems. If you're going to buy SD665 phone, you should go for Redmi Note 8 since it has FHD and much better camera. Battery: The thought that "I wish it had better battery" has never crossed my mind. I never worry about it despite being a heavy user (gaming, GPS, social media), spending half of my day outside and only charging at night. Camera: Let me make this clear. Realme 3 & Realme 5 have almost exactly same camera quality. But RM3 has better Gcam versions so it wins. With Gcam, my Realme 3 has same sharpness + better details than my friend's Huawei Y9 Prime 2019 16MP camera. However, I don't recommend RM3 for video recording. It's fine in daylight but quite bad in lowlight. Don't worry about stabilising/Eis because Google Photos gives you the option to stabilise videos and it does it quickly. I don't know how video quality of Realme 5 compares but I'm pretty sure it's not any better.

  • Get out of here with your fake reviews. You could at least make up a believable lie like lagging in PUBG but temple run? Seriously?? Do you think we're idiots? I was playing PUBG on HD with Shadows just an hour ago with my friends.

  • I'm gaming(PUBG, Call of Duty, Clash Royale, Subway Surfers, PvZ 2, Asphalt 9 etc) on this phone for about 3 months and I haven't faced any lagging or heating issues...

  • Dear its even lagging on temple run 2 and subway surf. I don't know if its happening on my phone or everyone's. Indeed i face really bad gaming performance.

  • I am about to buy a new phone, realme 3 or realme 5? what do you think is better? Well some say the cameras come close to each other and realme 3 just needs gcam to rival realme 5's cameras but realme 5 has better AI and stabilization. I dont know about the battery difference but 4230 mah is pretty good compared to 5000 mah I think. Lastly, the performance i know that p60 is still better than sd 665. Mind to share your thoughts?

  • Is this phone lagging on games like ML? How about the camera quality? TIA for any actual user's answers.

  • It manages heating well. It can play PUBG on mobile data while charging. No lag or overheating. It can also play PUBG on mobile date while sitting under Sun without heating up. But if you also enable Hotspot and play PUBG while sitting under Sun, then it will heat up a little.

  • No

  • Does this phone heat up with wifi? How about mobile data? How long does the battery last?

  • Have you try this problem of mine . If i open wifi . it will connect , but when i switch to data , it wont work .

  • You've asked this question how many times now? 3 or more users said it's accurate. What answer do you want?

  • Does any one encounter problems related to auto brightness accuracy ? does the automatic brightness accurate enough ?

  • 1. Search: Realme 3 Google Camera. 2. Open the link to XDA forum. 3. In "Search Thread", type HusbanJ and follow the steps given by him.

  • Nope, there's no issue in this phone at all. As for auto brightness, there's a Power Saving option in Notification Bar. If it's enabled, the brightness is decreased further. Whoever complained about it probably doesn't know about it.

  • Not once in my 2-3 months use.

  • I heard M20 hangs a lot. How about Realme 3? Does it hang often?

  • I mean auto brightness accuracy when the light changes some talking about it is not working correctly every time

  • I haven't seen any problem related to auto brightness...

  • Want to buy this phone but i read some users talking about auto brightness issues Can any body confirm if that problem solved by latest software update

  • Thank you, would you like to mention it here if it possible for you ..i will google it as well.

  • There are a lot of working Gcams for Realme 3 (Step by step procedure)... Just Google it

  • Hi hope you are doing well. well i installed Gcam 2 days ago but its not working, only Normal camera mode and panorama mode working when i click on Portrait mode or video its closed automatically . i try to Find Gcam config xml file but i didn't find it. any suggestion

  • Well i bought it on 245000 PKR with 4/64 GB variant.

  • do you know how much is the Price for this phone in your place?

  • you're welcome.

  • Thank you khan

  • Hi Salamat, to be honest i bought this phone couple of days ago and i am fully satisfied with its performance, including, battery timing, Camera Result, and smooth operating. you can go for this product.

  • Im satisfied with this phone.. only rm499 3/32 on Malaysia.. &#128077;&#128077;

  • any Filipinos in here? how is this phone in Philippines? wanna buy this one but I need some reviews/advice about this phone first if its worthy to buy or not. peace

  • Quit lying. Even if you got a defective phone, there's no way a single phone can have all these issues. 1. Display is perfectly sharp. My friend with FHD display phone couldn't tell this phone has lower resolution and I didn't notice any difference either. 2. Touch is very responsive. It registers touch before I can even feel my finger touching the screen. How can it be any better? 3. Built quality is one of the best. It can survive 10 feet drop without any damage. There is only 1 other phone that matches its built quality and that's Honor 10 Lite. 4. Realme 3 performance is among best out of all Helio P60, P70, Kirin 710, 710F and SD 660 phones. - My Realme 3 has exactly same performance + better battery than my friend's Huawei Y9 Prime 2019 in PUBG. - Xioami's Redmi Note 7 has worst performance & battery out of all SD 660 phone. - Samsung doesn't have a single good performance phone below Galaxy A50 - but it has a lot of issues and Realme 3 Pro & Nokia 8.1 are much better than it.

  • Display: mediocre using this phone for a year will send you straight to an optamologist/eye clinic, display ratio is like.going back to 90's. Touch: Touch sensitive you need to exert a lot of force to this piece of indian made phone of shit to work. And. For god sake it's touch sensitivity is like a reatarded indian trying to make sign language &#128514; at worst possible way... Updates: you'll probably be using another brand which is less worst than this piece of indian bollywood garbage. Before a good update is released. Overall: get a huawei xiaomi or samsung, you wont regret spending it cause ot works well, not like a cheap one with high demand but poor performance and very cheap quality just like to talking to an indian taxi driver.

  • Realme 5's chipset is little lower than Helio P60... You can enjoy PUBG in HD settings with Shadow enabled and with no lag in realme 3... I am using it...!!!

  • Honest review about your review: Stop writing fake reviews. A phone that can play PUBG on HD with Shadow enabled lag free for around 7 hours is way too good in this price. Only SD 675 and SD 710 onwards phones can offer better gaming performance.

  • I am facing the issue of abnormal touches while playing PUBG is my Realme 3 it works well when it's case ( provided by realme) is placed on it's back but when I remove it the game becomes too much unresponsive this is happening for several times with me .

  • Honest review dobt ever buy realme3 for gaming .its not like p70 .

  • Make a call to Realme or Oppo helpline and they'll tell you about your warranty... Currently in our country, users can't check their warranty by themselves...

  • how i can check real me3 online warranty ?

  • Yup. I play PUBG on HD with player shadow and anti aliasing enabled. You'll need SD 710 or similarly powerful chipset from Kirin, Exynos to beat it. My battery lasts 7-8.5 hours on these settings. On minimum graphics (GFX Tool), it lasts 9-12 hours. Realme 5 has SD 665 which is worse than SD 636 for games. A YouTuber already tested Realme 5 and it couldn't even pull 30 FPS on Balanced graphics.

  • Its screen visibility is best I've seen even when compared to QHD Super AMOLED and LTPS IPS LCD displays. I played and won a full classic match of PUBG at 12:30 PM sitting outside. I wasn't sitting under a shade nor had to adjust phone to see better. The reflection was non existent so it was as visible as it would be inside house. I think you misheard. Actually, the minimum brightness of this phone is so low that it won't hurt your eyes even if you look at its display right after waking up. Its dark mode further decreases brightness A LOT. And maximum brightness is as I stated above. Tip: 1. Turn on/off Power Saver mode for increasing/decreasing brightness further. 2. Settings - Battery - Screen Battery Optimisation. Turning it on saves battery and turning it off makes display quality better.

  • It's Average... You'll not find any problem in Realme 3 display... I downgraded from 1080p (440ppi) to 720p (290ppi)... Difference is just a minor and sunlight legibility is fine

  • Yeah it's best under 25k price but Realme 5 is also available now...

  • Is realms 3 is best for pubg?

  • What about display Visibility outside under direct sunlight Because i read before that realme 3 display somewhat dim

  • In pakistan its p60 i think in india its p70

  • Global edition with p60 Indian edition with p70

  • p60

  • It's fine. I like that they give us a lot of control over the phone without root. That way I can disable battery draining services which is difficult on other OS. But it's quite messy. They need to reorganise the settings so it doesn't take so long to review settings. There should by a way to completely turn off OS/Security Updates as well.

  • The Indian variant has Helio P70 while Global variant has Helio P60. Both of them are similarly powerful as Snapdragon 660 and Kirin 710.

  • Yes

  • can anybody tell me~? Am I talking to myself?~? is it true that realme 3 is P70 or P60?

  • hardware is good of Realme devices but Software is Crap and Ugly. This should name CrapOS.

  • Best phone, very cheap

  • Search Realme 3 Gcam. Open the XDA link and use same Gcam and Config as given by Sachin in comments.

  • Thank you.,

  • My pleasure... It's not available on playstore... You have to Google or YouTube...

  • Thank you for your response. well from where i can download Gcam..is it available at play store .i already searched but i didn't find it.. thank you

  • I have same question...plz someone answer

  • GCam is the customized camera app from Google Pixel series for the other phones (Like for Realme 3)... In Realme or Oppo phones there is no option to select MPs, their Camera app is inspired from Apple's... Even the whole OS is inspired from Apple's... Yeah GCam's night mode is amazing and a lot better than Realme's Stock Camera... But GCam is too much laggy and it's takes too much time to capture night mode

  • hi i hope everyone is fine here. i bought Realme 3 almost 4 days ago . I love this phone, everything works great . i just want know that i saw almost in several comments here that people are talking about Gcame..is this an camera app? Anyone help me about it. i also got an updated of Color but nothing change the same color but may be some bugs has been fixed and improved. i also want to know about Camera features like there is no option for MP. like almost in every phone you can set MP as your own choice but there is no option of this here ...Anyone guide me..Thank you in advance.

  • You should check Notification & Status bar settings under phone settings before posting comment... There are options available

  • Check the Photo Ratio in Camera settings... And 1x is not a zoom, it's normal mode

  • Is it possible to make the phone loop a sound when a notification comes in, until I dismiss it? How would i do that throw realme software If I can't see a notification with the screen asleep, I'd like to hear it at least Especially the phone has no notifications led

  • Repeated notification alert for specified time i mean

  • Is there a way to set alert of notifications for each app throw realme 3 software as replacement for the lack of led notification light

  • i buy realme 3,mobile is great no doubt about it&#10084;&#65039;but why does it have a camera at 1x zoom all the time&#128545;

  • The stock camera of both phones is bad. You'll need to install Gcam on both of them. Realme 3 camera is quite good with Gcam - don't know if Realme 5 has any compatible ones. But if you must compare camera specs, then Realme 5 is slightly better capable of capturing details - but only slightly. The main advantage of Realme 5 camera is Eis (video stabilisation) which Realme 3 lacks.

  • Vivo doesn't have a single good phone in Pakistan no matter the price. They've 1 or 2 good phones and neither of them are sold in Pakistan. If Realme 3 is worth 25k, Vivo S1 is worth 28k at best. It has same performance, same battery endurance, weaker quality, less durable display with inaccurate colours and bad camera. Only a fool would buy Vivo S1 over Realme 3 Pro, Nokia 7 Plus, Nokia 8.1, Huawei P30 Lite and Huawei Y9 Prime 2019 in its price range.

  • Vivo S1 is way expensive than realme 3... Are you out of mind??

  • Got sept security patch in pak 2day One suggstn from all of u is vivo s1 better than realme 3

  • Hi! Can you give me the link of this gcam version with config, I really cant find it.

  • Best Google Cam version for Realme 3 (Everything works except video) Camera_v1.4.032219.1950build-6.1.021.apk You also need to put a file Realme_3Config.xml into configs folder of gcam in file manager and restore this by double clicking when you open the gcam

  • Version A21

  • Android version 9

  • Which camera is best Between RM3 and RM5 if you don't consider the quad setup of RM5.... Should I go for RM3 if Camera is main aspect....

  • A.21

  • Kirin 710, Snapdragon 660, Helio P60 and Helio P70 all have same performance and battery efficiency. The difference is in support for other features.

  • does it perform better in kirin710 chipset

  • I'm unable to find that Gcam. Can you check the apk file name in download folder please?

  • Hello, can you share which android version you're on Like I'm on A.18. Go to Settings - About Phone - Version.

  • Bought Realme 3 from Sialkot Pakistan. Here is my 20 days usage review Pros: Great camera for this price. (Gcam is even greater. I use version 1.4.023219.1995 and its night sight is fabulous. V nice crisp display. Fantastic performance, hardly lags. Speaker out put v good. Battery 1.5 day with medium to heavy use. Less blotware. Realme gives you permission to unlock bootloader the same day you unbox the phone. Cons: Perhaps pre applied display film is below average. I feel mistyping of letters some times while texting. Haptic feed back feel is not premiuim, Key touching vibration is very average (I miss Redmi Note4). No notification light. Charging time is quiet long. No IR blaster (I miss Redmi note4 alot).

  • Any good less battery consuming led notifying app for rwalme 3 thanx in advance if any one helps out

  • Mr shoaib as soon as possible change your mobile with the shopkeeper he had given u a defected piece i bought realme 3 4gb64gb for 23500 and every thing is awesome battery time almost 2 days screen on time almost 9 to 10 hours camera exclnt call quality 4g etc every thing is marvellous do check back to shopkeeper as he has given u the defected piece dats for sure

  • Are you serious ? That the bettery and touch screen of this phone is not good ?

  • Lines left by paintbrush on walls*.

  • Go for Realme 3. Realme 5 can't play PUBG on HD because of SD 665 and its built quality and water resistance is weakest of all Realme phones. Gsmarena didn't like Realme 5 camera, but I think it can be improved with Gcam. If not, your only reason to buy it should be Eis. I use Gcam (R3MGC_5.1.018_MI8_V1.apk) on Realme 3 for now, but I'm also testing other Gcam. The clarity is excellent with Gcam. There is almost no noise even in low light (indoors) and pictures are very detailed! I can see lines made by paintbrush by zooming and in selfies, I can even see pores of my skin. The color accuracy is spot on and dynamic range is also good! You will definitely like it. Video recording is great as well. There is 60 FPS video recording even in Selfie camera! Slow-motion is also better/clearer in Gcam. Only thing it lacks is Eis. One way to overcome this is to download a Video Stabilization program like Adobe Photoshop. It'll stabilize videos even better than Eis. Stock Camera is great in daylight and has a very good Nightsight. The video recording is good in all light conditions, but pictures are quite bad in low light (A.18). That's why I highly recommend Gcam. There's a huge difference. Note: I can update to A.21 which might make Stock Camera better, but I haven't because I don't want to risk losing my performance and battery.

  • No no no!! What have you done?? The shopkeeper robbed you!!! Only buy from stores where Realme officially supplies this phone! Official price of this phone in Pakistan is 25,000 for 4, 64GB variant. No one can charge you more than that, other than shipping cost. And no one even buys it for 25,000. I bought mine for 23,800. And there is no such problem you mentioned! My guess is that shopkeeper gave you a refurbished/repaired phone. You should immediately claim warranty!

  • I just bought realme 3 day ago, I am not impressed by the battery as i didn't use much apps but it drained quickly, plus the screen touch is not as smooth as it should be, because I am constantly hammering on the screen to zoom in the pictures which works occasionally or else I have to manually zoom it through stretching, I am not satisfied in last two days and hoping that this device is worth of Rs.27,000/-. Plus the usb data transfer rate is pathetic, as it seems like the realme 3 has used cheap Chinese hardware. Also when you hold phone in your hand you don't feel the quality phone with contrast to the other phones of this league of Moto, Samsung Apple. I hope to test this by next week, if not satisfied then I will revert back to Moto series. Regards, Shoaib

  • Hi,, what about its camera clarity. Should I go for it or For Realme 5..

  • I've Helio P60 (4, 64) variant. I already knew it was a good phone but I must admit it's 200% better than my expectations! Detailed Review: 1. Battery: As soon as I got it, I went into settings and turned on everything that can help save battery. I also turned off battery draining services that I didn't need, like Auto Sync. In non gaming usage, it consumes 15-20% battery for 10 hours of SCREEN ON TIME. It can vary as streaming videos consumes more battery, but offline videos consume 5% battery for 20+min of video. In PUBG, HD Graphics, 60 FPS, 100% Brightness, 100% speaker volume (not earphone), GFX Tool, WiFi - it consumes constant 1% battery for 5.5 minutes of PUBG. I played 15 TDMs to confirm this (A lot of looking around + 8 Players in small area = More battery drain). That's 9+ hours of PUBG minimum! Imagine how longer it would last if I had used earphones, reduced graphics and kept brightness at 30% - which is perfect for inside house with lights on. 2. Performance My phone is ALWAYS on battery saving modes. All of them. Even in Game Space while playing PUBG. Despite this, PUBG runs butter smooth on HD Graphics! There isn't even a slightest frame drop no matter how much I turn around, drive and number of enemies. There is no lag even in HDR graphics (GFX). I haven't once felt the need to even test its Performance modes. 3. Fingerprint: It's lightning fast! Even if I try to tap and pull away my finger as fast as humanly possible, it still unlocks the phone. 4. Display: It's sharp and doesn't disappoint in any way. I was worried about it because people kept saying HD+ on 6.2' screen sucks but now I think people don't know anything about displays and DPI. Even if I hold it uncomfortably close to my eye, I've to look hard in order to see any rough edges or pixelation. 5. Camera: It's excellent in daylight but I found mine isn't as good as other users in low-light. There is a pending update but I haven't installed it because I don't want to risk losing my battery timing. However, I've installed Gcam for it and pictures are VERY detailed! Even in low-light, I can see pores of my skin in selfies! The portraits are also excellent from both cameras, even with messy hairs, the edge detection is spot on. 6. Multitasking: I don't use a lot of apps but it easily keeps all apps running in background for as long as I need (40+ minutes). I use Facebook, Whatsapp, Messenger, Chrome, MX Player, IDM+, HF Player, YouTube. It also keeps PUBG running in background for 10+ minutes. 7. Heating: It almost never heats up. Even while playing PUBG, I can hardly tell if it's heating up (I use a back cover though). I don't even sit in AC. Only time I've felt it "getting warm" is when I play PUBG whilst charging, but it only gets warm to comfortable extent. 8. Weight: It's surprisingly very lightweight. My previous Samsung was 5 inch with plastic body and this phone is 6.2+ inches. Yet I can't *feel* any difference in their weight!

  • I enjoyed this phone and using it more than 6 months. It can PUBGM with Medium Quality, no framedrop unless you activated BSO, Mobile Legends Bang Bang with High Quality. The Battery is quite tough. last more than half a day for playing mobile legends. and last for more than 18hours for non stop anime marathon. Heat up issues only exist when the phone is used for gaming during battery charging. The charging is quite fast since it's adapter support 10w Vooc 2.0 perhaps?(Correct me if i'm wrong) The resolution of Screen is okay for the price realme given. M30 from samsung screen res is better.

  • the date of release? where did you get the info?

  • I got pubg and mobile legends and more than 24apps ... and i got available storage 35.2gb ... i'm using realme 3 4/64

  • How was the storage? Is it s shown full after using some avg game?

  • yes,it has own galery

  • All Realme phones will switch to Realme OS. It's said to be based on stock android and offer better battery and performance than Color OS.

  • Does it had its own photo gallery or pictures shown in the photos????

  • Will we get color os 7 or 6.0.1 will be final????

  • My realme 3 camera has zomm x1 all the time and has anoise any one help me to remove the zoom i hate that option if it not remove

  • Clearly, Realme 3 is better

  • Gon' buy this in sep.14,2019 hope it's worth it! &#128517;&#128517;&#128517;

  • Which one is better between honor 8c and realme 3?

  • Which Gcam you guys use for Realme 3?

  • To get 45-60 FPS... GFX Tool: Resolution: Minimum Graphics: Smooth HD or Smooth Other setting/Optional: Distance: low for everything Shadow: disabled Effects: low Reduce GPU Load: OpenGL 2.0 GPU Optimisation: Enabled

  • Use GFX tool... Budget phones are limited to graphics by Pubg developers...

  • Does it really do 60fps? My realme3 doesn't...are you sure?

  • After a month of use, i have rom storage issues it always gets full after updating apps, i don't have any hd apps and games yet it gets full when i check my rom usage i only used 2.2gb and this is 32gb so I was wondering where did the other space went lol

  • Why would you listen to songs without earphones on any phone?? Download HF Player or Equalizer+ apps for high quality sound.

  • This phone is totally awesome. No issue at all .can play games at higher graphic. Camera also very good.

  • The battery functions are limited how can we see screen on time etc is there any 3rd party app needed to be installed plz guide thanx

  • But realme 3 good for low budget.

  • It has Gyroscope sensor and I have checked more than 3 times... Please do confirmation before posting comments...

  • I,m new user and yesterday buy this phone, and i comment this with realme 3, it's very cool....good camera with AI, good design, big display, good performance with MTK helio p60 and big battery. Although still there drawback with no gyroscope but with fingerprint sensors and AI Face unlock it's still good.....course with realme motto : Leap to dare and proud to be young make me inspired as young man.

  • After clicking picture you have to click download button for saving picture in B612... Now, go to Photos application > Albums > scroll down n click view all > rarely used albums... There you'll find B612 pictures

  • How about 32gb ROM? User available storage?

  • I am the new user of this phone. I have a problem with the photo in the gallery , after take the several selfie photo with b612 camera , after a few hours i want to check the photo again, but the photo was disappear, i don't know either it automatically hide or delete or accidentally delete but i dont delete the photo ,so mybe it hide at somewhere else , please help me to fix this problem ,

  • worth it to buy. it can play 60fps with lower price compare to xiaomi and honor. no other phone can beat its price.

  • make the audio louder

  • Go to aliexpress.com and search for it there, it is there.

  • Please mind ur words. Buy the phone within your budget and not based on desire. If you want better, you should be able to spend more. Why arguing based on this models instead of wanted the best quality with lower prices?? If wanted so, do mind open ur shop by yours and you knows it better.

  • I hate realme and oppo! Coz the realsound effect not good for listening music.

  • 64=54

  • at least 51gb

  • You should learn that how to set fingerprint properly... It's too accurate, responsive and fast

  • Can I ask what is the user available ROM? I'm searching everywhere and can't seem to find one.

  • Its finger print sensor is among fastest even when compared to flagship phones. Clean your finger print sensor and try again. If that doesn't fix it, claim warranty. Because this device has no such problem that you're mentioning, unless you don't have this device.

  • I am using this phone since 1 month, its a good phone in this price range, No heat up issue, best camera, The best thing is batter which last and last for hours of continuous use,

  • Please I need help, how can this phone be ordered and shipped to Nigeria

  • Playing a huge file of 1GB or more..it don't play ie. It don't start like normal as in smaller files..it just hangs there... And only started to play after several tries. Finger unlock sometimes work only after at least three tries..

  • It works badly with YouTube.. quick tapping twice sometimes don't result in the normal fast forward of the video by 10 sec but it annoying enlarge the screen.. Next the music equaliser does not work.. the controls are there but it's not enabled.. In YouTube playing back a huge fire of

  • Have you fou

  • Realme 3 best

  • R3

  • Realme 3. There isn't a single alternative from Oppo for Realme 3 and Realme 3 Pro. 1. Performance: Helio P35 is as powerful as SD 630 (PUBG on low graphics with some lag), Helio P60 is as powerful as SD 660 (PUBG on high graphics with 30 FPS). 2. Camera: f/2.2 aperture doesn't capture as good details and is even worse in low light. f/1.8 aperture captures significantly better details and allow better low light performance. Most phones in this price offer f/2 at best. Realme 3 Pro has f/1.7 so you can imagine how good f/1.8 is considering the price. Realme 3 has 1.12um on front + back camera, which is very good for low light conditions and better than what most 50-80% more costly phones give you (0.8 or 1um). 4. Software: Oppo A5s runs on Oreo, Color OS 5.2 Realme runs on Pie and latest Color OS 6. It'll also get new Realme OS which is more lightweight so it'll offer even better performance and battery.

  • Should I bought Realme 3 or Oppo A5s?

  • in term of price, realme 3 pro way pricy than realme 3. in malaysia realme 3 rm499 (130 euro) meanwhile realme 3 pro rm849 (200 euro).

  • please guys i need your help, how can i get or order realme 3 pro from india.there is no clue on how to order it for those staying in nigeria

  • Yes absolutely p60 and p70 not so very deference

  • Realme3 is good option for budget friendly specs are good now days water drop notch it looks so good and phone performance are great battery timming good and look not premium but not look cheap also i am using this handset some last weeks but now i can say it is better choice to but you will never regret

  • Guys, is it advisable I buy the Indian version of this phone whereas I reside I Africa, also how may I ship it Thanks in anticipation!

  • no update on lenovo z6 yes its way better that realme3 but theres no company handling on lenovoz6 and if youre playing games has server like EU and Asia theres no option for Asia

  • Lenovo Z6 youth is way better!

  • No notification LED... It has Radio and Recorder... It has Call recorder with automatic call recording...

  • which is better? realme 3 or lenovo z6 youth?

  • &#127384; I need some informations about Realme 3: 1&#8419; Does it has LED Notification? 2&#8419; Does it has Radio & recording capability? 3&#8419; Does it has Calling Recorder?

  • Nokia 6.1 Plus is now outdated with it's all features... Realme 3 is better option right now...

  • no

  • Much much much better. Redmi 7 is not a competition for realme 3.

  • Can someone tell me which is best option in between realme 3 4/64 gb or nokia6.1 plus??

  • I m using this for 3 months...I play PUBG for 6 to 7 hours easily with battery still left for other things.. Battery timing is awesome and camera is also decent.Great screen for watching movies...i must say this is best option in budget..

  • Definitely, Yes!

  • Is the Realme 3 a better device than the Redmi 7?

  • Can this run ragnarok m eternal love smoothly? Someone please share your gaming experience with this phone like graphics, fps, battery life, 4G signal detection, etc. Thank you!

  • I bought this a week ago and definitely it's worth of buying... Display should be FHD+ but HD+ is also quite good even in outdoors... Cameras are just amazing in this price... The only disadvantage is that it's back get scratches too easily even rubbing with cloth so don't forget to wrap sheet on the back... Tip: with matt transparent sheet phone looks just fabulous...

  • is this worth it to buy?

  • no its not. realme 3 pro is better. realme 3 3dmark has only 19k score, while realme 3 pro has 38k, almost half dude. rendering technology of adreno 616 is better. see android gpu benchmark on notebookcheck.

  • not that much difference. 720p is not that much low, I also think about this before i bought this phone. using a naked eye would not make a difference if looking in a normal distance between the eye and the phone. its actually clear and sharp but if your always facing your phone at a near distance like almost touch the screen with your nose, 1080p is recommended, goodluck with your eyes though. using a 720p is good for gaming because it renders the screen half the 1080p has. lower resolution better frame rate.

  • buy it, you will love it. its a bit different from its oppo parent. note: any phone will get lag if you only have 1.5gb free below on your storage.

  • go to phone manager to clean your storage or totally reset clean your phone.

  • Realme 3 doesn't have any such problems and Color OS 6 is very different than its predecessor. Helio P60 is extremely more powerful than Helio P35, which is only as powerful as SD 630. Helio P60 competes with SD 660 and Realme 3 even beats many of the SD 660 phones. In simple words, it can handle PUBG in HD graphics. Both of its cameras capture 1.12um, which is decent light capturing ability, especially when you consider many higher priced phones go as low as 0.8um. The f/1.8 is also surprising to see in this price. It captures good details and performs well in low light conditions as well. The phones that cost twice as much offer f/1.7 at best and many of them offer only f/2. The selfie camera has f/2 which is good enough, considering many higher priced phones offer the same - except that Realme 3 captures more light than most of them. Regarding pixels. Your problem is that you bought the wrong phone. If you want good display with this screen size, you should buy a phone with FHD resolution and 370+ ppi. This is the only aspect Realme 3 is weak in.

  • So I Bought this Phone 1 month Old Till now I only have problem that My storage are sometimes Decreasing and after a week it goes Increase I don't know how to fiz this please help me, Now I only have 2 apps But my Storage is 6:54gb out of 49gb Wtf Please helppp

  • Plz install Mira cast it will open your multi screen interaction

  • Now i do get its a budget device and i should lower my expectations but ive had a pretty shit experience with the Oppo A5s, realme after all is an Oppo subrand and im afraid the same issues will persist. The Oppo A5s is a PATHETIC phone, that phone had android 8 in 2019 and Color OS 5.2 was just laggy and stuttery experience for the most part (im pretty sure that phone would never get updated to pie) . The screen was abysmal with pixelization and shit colors along with NOTICEABLE yellow tinting at the bottom, which is the most concerning problem for me. So can someone plz tell me whether or not ill find the same issue in the Realme 3? Thx in advance. Other than that it seems like a good phone in all aspects.

  • MIUI does have ads in many countries especially in India... May be your country is not included yet...

  • MIUI Dont have advertising issue maybe you installed some application that giving you advertising i used color os and miui there is no issue all have good options.

  • I will be use realme 3 mobile after 4 manths but this phone backgraund apps are restart any other application open then 1st running app is restart please solve this problem

  • I'm so confused about it's display... I have used FHD displays for almost 2 years and realme 3 has only HD display... Should I buy realme 3??

  • In term for gaming its better than realme 3 pro. Because that 720p display.. Give u smooth experience gaming

  • Realme 3 rmx1821 heliop60 has no multi screen interaction but Indian realme has this

  • i was purchased new realme 3 mobile 3 months back today it born automatically. if any children handling that mobile what would have happened...

  • i was purchased realme 3 mobile before 3 month today it is born automatically I never see the worst experience. if any children's handle that mobile what would have happened i never imagine..

  • I was so frustrated by MIUI: a lot of advertising and a lot of conflictuel problems between Xiaomi applications and google's one.... I Heard that ColorOS had some issus too: the same problems above or...?

  • Glass back doesn't necessarily mean it's gonna break easily. Some Xiaomi phones have durable glass backs. You can use a phone case if you're worried. Nokia 5.1 Plus has been out for a year while this phone has been around for a few months. In my opinion, neither of the two phones have been out long enough to say for sure. It's just Nokia is an old brand and we know they've been dedicated to provide quality in the past even if it resulted in higher prices. Realme 3 is a new brand but as far as this phone is concerned, it's exceptionally durable when it comes to falls. I saw a YouTuber (Gupta Information System) drop it 6 times from height of 10 feet and then put it in water for 1-2 hours and it still worked fine with no damage suffered. I was seriously impressed because I've seen iPhone's internal components getting damaged after falling from that height, making the phone unable to boot up.

  • yes, I also want a phone for long-term use & Nokia 5.1 plus is perfect in all aspects. But the only thing that worries me is the glass back of Nokia coz I dunno how long it gonna last.

  • Realme 3. It has better camera and battery, bigger screen, strong built quality and equal performance. Definitely the best phone for gaming and at least among top phones for camera in this price - if not the best. Nokia 5.1 Plus has better OS which should offer better performance and battery but Realme 3 is well optimized as well. Personally, I would trust Nokia for long term use over Indian/Chinese brands but people seem to be reporting problems in Nokia 5.1 Plus.

  • Yes and no. It will work fine even if you put it in water for 2 hours, but the company officially didn't say it's waterproof. Check its durability test video by Gupta Information Technology.

  • The P70 variant is only for India. P60 is for other countries.

  • hi everyone, can you help me decide which one should I buy? Nokia 5.1 plus or Realme 3 (3gb variant). thanks

  • Is the realme 3 waterproof?

  • what variant have helio p70 , some website give p60 in specs

  • Yes, it supports Gcam. I tried sharing link to it but gsmarena removed it. Just Google search Realme 3 Gcam. Then open XDA website link. You'll find different versions of Gcam for Realme 3.

  • What are u writing!lol, essay or notes about realme 3.

  • Are you sure?? I saw many videos, it does support Google camera because Camera2Api is enabled

  • I am using this phone,its body SAR value is 0.261 and head is 0.976 which is way less compared to Xiaomi,motorola and all. Still Samsung is the best

  • Realme 2.pro.obviously

  • If you don't mind me asking, how can you say this mobile has high radiation?

  • Which phone is better for gaming and photography? REALME 3 vs. REALME 2 PRO vs. REALME U1. please reply..........

  • this phone has a higher radiation. the longer the use the phone the longer you take the radiation to make you sick.. better not purchase this but If you can remove the radiation into this phone I might purchase this.

  • yes it does give better game play bec of 750x1250 res.

  • My realme 3 support gyroscope. But in this page say no. Please correct asap

  • Sounds is not too powerful but good interms of games and camera.

  • Wow! Im impressed by your review style...its easy to read for me, even though the review are so many words haha.

  • Hello ! Thank you for your reply

  • I've been using this phone since March.... And this phone is awesome.... As I'm a student.. this is great for me... It does all my documents and all stuff.. And I play very less games and I'm more on articles and YouTube... It's holds up well in speakers sound quality.... But doesn't get loud... And the screen is bright enough to view it on a hot sunny day.... And battery life is great... I charge only 2 times a week... But gets very hot while charging... And there's no lag.. At all... But this phone has a bad GPU...and does heat a lot while playing even something like 'The sun :Origins' But this phone has a very good AI powered software... And gets frequent updates.... Screen is also good... It doesn't feel cheap... And this phone has fallen many times already.... And when it fell from almost 3 meters... It still just managed and got only a slight crack on the side.... Everything is great... But the camera.... It shoots like a painting instead of a picture in Indoors.... And expert mode sometimes makes the phone haywire.... And it has a good security in softwares.... And no other problems will be faced by this phone other than heating, weak GPU and doesn't support high end softwares.... It also doesn't support Google camera....

  • Hello ! Intending to buy the Realme 3, I rest my question on the quality of the phone function and I want to know if the sound is clear and powerful ?? Can someone from the office answer me ?? Thank you.

  • Is this phone support Wifi 5 or protocol 802.11ac? gsmarena stated this is not but if you check into mediatek site it says support wifi 5 and other phones with p60/p70 chipset inside does support wifi 5.

  • Hello ! Please, is the phone's sound good and strong? Thank you

  • can we play pes 2019 pro evolution soccer in real me 3

  • It's not even a comparison. Realme 3 is a lot better than those two. Realme 3 > Oppo A5s > Vivo Y91

  • Thanks for the feedback, have a good day!

  • IMG20190707120024.jpg

  • I would like ask goodfellows of realme users here, what is the file naming sequence of photos/ videos taken by the camera? is it IMG_xxx VID_xxx or DDMMYY_ hhmmss or maybe any other format? I'd definitely appreciate the answer.

  • Realme 3 is better among them...

  • Realme 3 best in battery, gaming, performance

  • Between Vivo Y91, Oppo A5s and Realme 3 which one is better in terms of gaming and battery life?

  • The phones auto brightness works perfectly well ,no heating issue with charging and playing videos for 4hrs.mtk p70 is good.

  • The garena freefire is not supporting in the realme 3.The app freefire is not opening.....its a. Ommon problem in all realme 3 phones....can you have a suggession for this problem ?

  • Today I sold my Realme C2 and bought a Realme 3 4 gb 64 variant. Realme C2 was a dead slow phone and I was fed up with its performance. So I decided to go for a 64 gb 4 gb phone and found Realme 3 as the least expensive model. Even though I hate colour OS still the price of this phone made me to buy it.

  • oh, my bad, I stand corrected, yeah but I got his/her point :3

  • What do you mean by motherboard problem? Motherboard is the entire phone itself if you take away its body. Mine doesn't have any problem.

  • it seems like you misunderstand his/her point, "demanding" term usually used for specification requirement especially in the gpu-cpu-ram sector, therefore s/he saying mobile legend is not relevant because the game is really light, it's not about the amount of players

  • Don't buy this realme mobile . It's coming with motherboard problems . And no response from service centre. And toll free also. I bought the mobile past 2months now there is a motherboard issue I have given to service centre past 10 days there is no replay from there . So don't buy this realme phone very bad service & service centres

  • nevermind this question, i did not see the whole replay coz it was covered on my bottom screen with some papers under the montior, LoL

  • i got your point, i only play some of these games coz of my friends, in terms of in-demand or not, i really have no problem at all as long as i have people i have to play with :D i have about 20+ games in my Asus Z5, unfortunately it lags when charging, so i don't use it anymore while charging

  • i highly appreciate your response bud, 1 more question tho, does 750x1250 pixel affect the gaming experience as well? after all these specs

  • Yes, fixed.

  • There are no hanging issues. The problem with retailers and other sellers is that you can only take their word if they say "this phone is defective" (exploding and that kind of issues). 95% of them don't have anymore knowledge about phones than you do. They only deal in selling phones. For example, I'm pretty sure that retailer was one of those people that still thinks mediatek chipsets are bad and that's why he said it will hang. FYI: Helio P60 is almost as good as SD 660. So rest assured. It's a good phone.

  • Since you want a detailed gaming review... Helio P60, 4GB RAM, Game Space (Using Balanced & Performance profile when required) : PUBG on HD graphics, Extreme FPS and Colorful Style, it gives 30-40 FPS. So yes, very smooth. With GFX tool, FPS go higher on HD graphics. Mobile Legends runs smoothly on highest settings. Vainglory runs smoothly on highest settings. Real Racing also runs smoothly on high graphics. Fortnite is not officially supported on Helio P60. But it can handle it on low graphics if you can make it run the game (using GL Tools and maybe Build prop Editor). Better Buy Realme 3 Pro or Nokia 8 for this game or any SD 835+ phone but they'll probably cost more. Ark Survival Evolved runs smoothly on highest graphics (Epic) if you lower the resolution to Medium. Otherwise, you'll have to lower graphics or lower both a little. Shadowgun Legends runs smoothly on high graphics. On Ultra High graphics, it drops frames (around 25) but it's still playable. Conclusion: This is a extremely good phone for gaming. I highly doubt you can find a better phone than this in this price. It manages heating very well, charges faster than most Type C phones, performs better than many SD 660 phones - especially if you use Game Space, has very strong built quality and great cameras. It has an HD screen but it didn't look bad when I watch videos. And for gaming, you don't need high resolution because it's very difficult to tell the difference even if you compare FHD resolution with 960x540 (qHD). PPI/Pixel Density is only noticeable if you're holding the phone right in front of your eye so that's no problem either. My conclusion about its display is, unless you're a display freak or hold your phone on your nose, you'll have no complaints with it.

  • I cannot view the video in Iwant apps.....

  • The only common issues I heard in the past is delay touch bug, but I heard they already fix it some month ago.

  • Just forget it about mobile legends, it's not demanding game at all, even arena of valor and onmyoji arena are more demanding than mobile legends, fyi all of them use same engine from tencent and this phone can easily handle it. In pubg maybe you still have a chance get relatively stable smooth-ultra performance using gfxtool/bagt. No idea about VG and RR, and fortnite for the last? just forget it, better you get phone with highend soc or at least SD710 if you really want it.

  • Kindly tell me is there any hanging problem in realme 3?????? I want to buy but the retailer was saying that there will be hanging issues with this cell phone? Plz plz give me honest answer

  • what about PUBG? Mobile Legends? Vainglory? RealRacing? Fortnite?

  • Yes with lowest settings

  • is this phone good for gaming? like it's PPI Density and Pixel Ratio is very low

  • How is the display quality of this why there is so many reviews about display quality on flipkart?

  • No

  • yes

  • Can I play ark in this phone ?

  • Tell me guys can it play Netflix video on HD??

  • No. But I haven't installed the update yet.

  • Do you guys have heating issues when charging?? Mine started to have it when I installed an update &#128532;

  • Yes it's is I'm using realme 3 ( 3gb+ 32gb ) I'm play PUBG, MOBILE LEGEND, FREE FIRE, NBA219 this phone really amazing. I use different phone before but the time I switch on realme then I found out it's not about price. It's about the performance of the phone try it to believe it.

  • gyro sensor not write on discription......

  • seems my other post with youtube link got deleted, but finally i found it at techutopia, do you mean that video? if not, can you give me the video title?

  • 1. No, VOOC doesn't work on Realme 3. But it takes between 2-2.5 hour to charge fully by normal 10 watt (2A, 5V) charger. This is same as Redmi Note 7 Pro and Redmi Note 7 charging time with Typc C, Quick Charge 4, 18 watt charger. 2. Yes, Gcam can be installed with ease on as it is Camera2 API enabled, and it works better than Stock Cam. Arnova8G2 shared a working version. You may have to install the config file he uploaded as well.

  • vooc works on realme 3? The gcam link that can be install on realme 3. Thanks.

  • I don't see which video you mean but probably not. The one I saw did enter the game, landed, walked around and stuff. Try Helio searching P60 Fortnite.

  • Realme 3 is good phone

  • do you mean thus video? it's not yet entered the game at all.

  • I tried sending link but it went to review by moderator and didn't get posted. Try writing nokia 5.1 Plus fortnite on Google. It should link to the video.

  • no.. I dont have this device I'm using rm 3 pro, I just read at some random website that low core mali g72 can run fortnite but with horrible performance, even adreno 612 really struggle to play this game. so I ask you back, can you give me the link that nokia x5 can play fortnite smoothly?

  • I don't know if gsmarena rules allow that. The SD 660 one was on Reddit. Something like "Proof that SD 660 can play fortnite". And Nokia one was on YouTube

  • Link

  • There shouldn't be any little lag, either. The FPS in PUBG are amazing on this phone and the other two games aren't even heavy enough to lag on this phone. 1. If you installed the games on your extSD card than try moving it to internal storage and play again. 2. Make sure battery/power saving mode is off because it reduces performance to save battery. 3. Check if your Internet speed is unstable. 4. You shouldn't have to tbh, but try a game booster app like Panda Game Booster. You need to have a Class 10 extSD card if you want to move games to your extSD card. Otherwise, your games will lag no matter what you buy.

  • I saw video of Nokia 5.1 Plus playing fortnite smoothly and it has Helio P60 as well, so I think Realme 3 can run it smoothly too because Realme 3 has better performance & FPS in PUBG than Nokia 5.1 Plus. I also saw someone playing Fortnite on SD 660 phone by using Magisk & GLTools. Helio P60 rivals SD 660 and depending on Kernel & OS, it can even beat SD 660, just like Realme 3 (Helio P60) has better performance than Redmi Note 7 (SD 660). So I can believe that guy when he says Fortnite plays smoothly on Realme 3. But I'd like to know how did he make it work.

  • Did you really play fortnite on it? If yes, can you record a video of you playing it and upload it on YouTube so we can see how well this phone handles it?

  • Ya, you are right, iam buy this phone last night ago, and i test PUBGM, Mobile Legends and Free Fire on this phone, sure no lag, only some little lagging

  • this device is not officially support fortnite, it can play fortnite but using modified apk, but still the performance is really bad, very low detail and fps, but you said no lag at all. lol

  • its ok no lags at all.

  • Yes, PUBG runs perfectly on 3GB, Helio P60 variant at high graphics. You can check gameplay videos on YouTube if you're worried. And no issues. This phone has best possible quality you can get in this price.

  • Are realme 3 phone RAM 3GB 32GB ROM is worth it for playing PUBG Mobile, Free Fire or Mobile legends? Any problem with the phones? Answer please caused i want buy it

  • fortnite? lol

  • Is it ok to update software today? Is there any bugs?

  • I have this phone how to transfer app from internal memory to sd card?

  • i bought it last month for 153 USD for 4/64 variant, i didnt expect much for that price...but after a month using it , its supriseingly amazing performance n camera, no issue found, 3 days ago got update for ColorOS 6 ..Rmx1821x.A.16, the major feature The display looks so smooth and theme is awesome. no battery isue found after updated and everything works flawlesly, my suggestion to you to buy this phone with no worry , its worth w the price. P.S : PUBG, ARENA VALOR, MODERN COMBAT 5 , ASPHALT, FORNITE, ML, and Others Big Graphis game with this device can smoothly awesome gameplay experience, no lags or stutter experience. I manage to save my money for waiting REALME X Pro come officially to my country ... because Realme aftersales service (join oppo) is near to my place . Please Realme Company make it (Realme X Pro) come official to southeast asian . i belive more New Realme fans at this region will blows up your sales after India. ...you re so welcome...we re waiting..for "Real phone"...

  • Did you mean Nokia 5.1 Plus? Because Nokia 5.1 is mediocre in every way possible from Realme 3. Nokia 5.1 Plus is a good phone but only thing superior about it when compared to Realme 3 is that it has Android One OS, which I would love if Realme 3 had. Not because of latest updates but because Android One is made to be as close as Stock Android as possible. Other than that 5.1 Plus has poor/normal battery compared to Realme 3, The built quality is also better in Realme 3 (see drop tests, 10 feet drop, 6 times, no damage to Realme 3), Camera are better in Realme 3 with better low light photography, The screen resolution is also better in Realme, The screen size is bigger so it's better for students and people that like to read and watch things on phone.

  • Bro, go for Realme 3 or if possible, get Realme 3 Pro because it costs same as redmi note 7. I've a friend that has RN7 and after seeing my Realme 3, he says he wasted his money. Camera, game performance, battery - everything is better. Every time he checks his notification, I see him closing ads and he has to carry power bank for his phone even tho RN7 has 4000 mah battery. We are always together and play PUBG together and I use my phone more than him and we make TikTok from my phone but I still don't need a power bank. And I feel like his PUBG view is bad compared to mine. Like looking around and stuff is smoother on Realme 3. I think it has to do with FPS.

  • same dilemma

  • Built quality...everything is made of the best material quality as possible according to the price from the screen ,body ,speakersto the interiors its the brand that u can trust its equality when u hear the word Nokia...... rather than a specification sheet just came from no where just to replace the original redmi from xiaomi .....they even could choose a name of there own if they have a trust of what are they producing.

  • Rm3pro

  • so I'm hesitant on buying rn7 because of this phone so which one do you think is a better buy?

  • nokia quality? crap camera, low battery, boring aosp but with locked bootloader

  • Which is better realme 3 or realme 3 pro

  • Is "Nokia quality" a pro or con?

  • Nokia 5.1 .....the same specs and price even with nokia's quality and no such lagging and no that crap cheap speaker ..even with android one with every update in time.

  • Realme 3 is a excellent budget phone with good specifications. The features of camera are also excellent. The performance is pretty good. The issue which I am facing is about the face unlock feature. Unlocks the phone even if I delete the enrolled face. I turned off - Use Face Unlock for - Unlock/AppLock/Private safe . Till it is recognising my face on the lockscreen. The inbuilt gallery must be provided with editing option such as mirror or flip the image to edit the selfies taken

  • I am really impressed with this phone it's such a great phone for gamers on budget, no lags, no heating up, long lasting battery, camera is not so bad for this price and I am really excited to get the real me 3 pro once it's realized in my country. I would really recommend this phne for gamers anytime.

  • Everyone should write a thank you letter to Realme for this phone. Top notch quality, amazing performance and no issues whatsoever in this price is unheard of!

  • I wish for the next update is the battery can choose whether it is battery inside the icon, battery outside the icon or none. That's the only issue that I wanted if realme 3 will release the new update. Thank you!

  • I didn't understand what ahsan just said.. mine was charging 2-2.5 hours from 5-10% to 100%. not bad if you'd ask me for a budget phone.

  • What do you mean? Mine takes 2-2.5 hour to charge. That's about same or less than redmi note 7 or any big battery phone in this price. If you've a slow charger, just buy a better one. I only charge it 2 or 3 times a week.

  • Great phone. just purchased mine for 7990.00 Php. no lag issues with games like NBA and ML.

  • realme 3 very bad charging speed i am today unbox realme 3 i give a 2.0amp charger but realme 3 chargina 1amp 0 to 100%??????????????compeney asked its fast charging 10w lollllll

  • They don't have actual understanding of these things. They just go "Ew IPS screen", "Ew Helio chipset", "Ew plastic body" "Ew micro usb", "Ew no bloatware (or what they like to call "features"), "Ew no latest Gorilla Glass", "Ew no latest OS", "Wow 48MP camera" only because they see other people doing the same.

  • None It's a beast None

  • Realme 3 easily. Read reviews and compare gameplays. Many PUBG players shared their experience on Realme 3 here. It gives longer battery and performance in PUBG. RN7 heats up after an hour of PUBG as well as on charging, and any phone that heats up easily should be a easy no for gamers. You won't find a better phone than Realme 3 for gaming right now, especially in this price. But there are some good phones coming out in next few weeks/months that might be better than Realme 3. Due to Fortnite mobile and newer chipsets, companies are trying to include SD 710 & its competitors chipsets in lower priced phones. But you'll have to wait at least half a year to figure out which is best value for money among them.

  • RN7 camera isn't good. Realme 3 camera is decent enough. And this phone IS for heavy usage. More than 3GB RAM hardly makes any difference on phones. CPU, GPU, Kernel, OS are more important than RAM if the phone has 3GB RAM. If you want camera, go for Realme 3 Pro, iPhone or Sony phones. And 6GB RAM is useless for phones because you'll hardly ever be able to make use of that 6GB but pay 30-50% more money. 4GB is already a lot - even excessive for most users, including heavy gamers that play PUBG on Ultra Graphics & Extreme FPS.

  • realme 3 for gaming, and redmi note 7 for camera, but realme 3 isnt for heavy users, id suggest phones with 6gb of ram is you're a heavy user

  • Redmi 7 Is better

  • Better Redmi note 7 or Realme 3 for gaming? I am PUBGM gamer, please recomended realme 3 or redmi note 7 for gaming?

  • Day 2 with it , so far so good , screen touch sensitivity isn't the best but get used to it ... 7990PHP for 3GB/64GB

  • Hang problem screen black

  • @Jcarcer -- what do u mean issues on Ram im also using RM3 3gb/64gb can u pls tell what issues ur experiencing after u upgraded ur phone?

  • Turn off smart power saver in settings-battery then click each app and allow background running but i advice to disable background running the apps that you dont need too much.

  • My Realme 3 has ram Management issues after I updated the software wich was recommended by Realme so I updated it and that's what happened and when I first got it it doesn't have those problems and my particular model has 3gb of ram so pls fix this Realme.

  • Anyone issues encountered using this phone? How is it like in terms of performance and daily use? Any noticeable lag or anything?

  • Why other rich people say micro USB yucks,HD+display yucks,mediatek chip ew and plastic body sick.For my opinion it's so delicious no more lag,tall screen,helio p60,latest Android version,bigger battery,support 2a charger only around two hours full,lowprice,outstanding camera,and more.

  • Realme 3 if you want: 1) Second best battery in this price (up to 6.5/7 hours of PUBG. Only Max Pro M2 lasts more). 2) Better performance (smoothest performance in PUBG on high graphics in this price, even on Helio P60 3GB variant). 3) Better quality than even most high priced phones (survived drop tests from height of 10 feet 6 times without any cracks). 4) One of the best cameras in this price. 5) Best heating management in this price (temperature remains below 40°C even after 3+ hours of PUBG. Most other phones heat up to 50°C+). There is no room to be confused with RN7. That phone heats up after an hour of playing PUBG as well as on normal usage while charging, has poor build quality, ADS, battery only lasts as long as 3000 mAh battery phones (4 hours of PUBG only), multiple people are reporting screen, heating and built quality issues and Xiaomi rarely helps its customers. It only has a FHD screen as a plus but if you want that, go for Max Pro M2 instead.

  • You're welcome! Glad you liked it!

  • lol stop writing fake reviews. You're a Xiaomi fan and you don't even own this phone, do you? RN7 heats up easily in room temperature after 1-2 hour of PUBG & also during charging. It also lags in PUBG whenever it has to process graphics fast like during jumping, driving and so on. RN7 battery also only lasts 4 hours and you get ads on top of that. Its built quality is very poor as well. If you want another phone than Realme 3, then your only choice is Max Pro M2 in this price range. RN7 is a very bad phone. And you say it's better than Realme 3? LOL do you even know how better Realme 3 handles all that?? Plus, I'm 100% sure you're lying but if you really do own this phone and it has those issues, just claim warranty. Realme customer service is not like Xiaomi that they'll deny your warranty claim. It'll only take a few minutes.

  • Redmi note 7 is better than realme 3 because no heat and lagg

  • 78 persantage in charging time battery is so heat and doesn't charge . This is big problem in 16 day use

  • Simple use in heating so far and lagging problem

  • Realme 3 many problem

  • Realme 3 heat and lagg issue

  • Thanks for helping,I just got mine yesterday i got 4/64 variant and very happy of its overall performance,I would say this is the best option in this price range..And i can play PUBG at HD without any problem.

  • Yes, I've Helio P60 3GB variant and it runs PUBG with no lags or heating on high graphics. I've never seen any phone run PUBG this smooth. This is the best phone for gaming in this price. At minimum brightness inside the house, PUBG lasts around 7+ hours on high quality. And 6.5 hour outside house with 30-40% brightness. After 3 hours of PUBG, its temperature still remains between 30-39°C. If. I don't play PUBG, I charge it once every 3 days. If I play PUBG, then I charge it every 2 days.

  • Can this play 4k videos ??

  • Is ark survival and asphalt 9 playable in this phone

  • I also Want to tell that here only Helio P60 variant is available,So,can it handle pubg smoothly?

  • Hi! I want to buy this phone for PUBG.. Can someone please tell me about its performance and battery? Thanks In Advance!

  • Yes

  • If it's not a fake review... Baka, you sure you weren't on a bad connection? Kings Raid could run smoothly on Adreno 308. It's as heavy as flappy birds or Piano Tiles. Another possibility: Were you using a class 4 ext SD card and moved the game to it? You should have class 10 SD card for gaming or at least Class 8 for lightweight gaming like Kings Raid.

  • As far as gaming is concerned, I've failed to find a better phone than this in this price range. It runs heaviest of games butter smooth (literally) on high graphics and the battery also lasts significantly longer than its competitors. You can check PUBG GamePlay & heating tests on YouTube. In gaming, its only competitor might be Asus ZenFone Max Pro M2 but that phone costs a lot more in my country.

  • Did you mean Redmi Note 7? Redmi 7 has significantly low specs. Redmi Note 7 camera supports night mode and provides a better visual experience (FHD, 400+ PPI). But it also has ads, many issues like screen bleeding, heating issues, build quality issues and its battery isn't great despite its capacity (4 hours of PUBG). Realme 3 doesn't offer as good visual experience (HD, 270 PPI) and that's the only thing it lacks in. It beats Redmi Note 7 in battery (6.5+ hours of PUBG), performance (PUBG is truly butter smooth), quality (no heating, screen, build quality issues) and no ads. So if you want a phone for gaming and long battery, go for Realme 3. If you want a phone for better visual experience in watching movies, go for Redmi Note 7 but beware of its issues. Asus ZenFone Max Pro M2 is a good alternative as well if its price is similar where you live.

  • Is the P60 version good for Ark and Asphalt 9/8 ?

  • I brought this phone on April 17. Its almost a month now. In my opinion This phone is superb according to the its price.it offers valuble features for me Pros *Both front and back cameras are quiet impressive. *Suited for pubg because of Helio p 70 *water droplet display and Android pie makes this phone premium looking device I play pubg everyday with almost 4-6 hours.The device has an impressive battery of 4230mah battery You can go for it

  • Converge / w/ offers pure end-to-end fiber internet network. best so far compare to other provider.

  • That's Great ! btw what connection to u have is it PLDT Wifi or Globe? Which country are you? btw how about when u connect using Mobile Data is it Working Fine? Thank You

  • hey guys,.. I told u im going to post here my gaming experience..so far there's no heating issue/ I tried to play ML (this is just to test if the phone is really good and smooth in gaming) so far my experience using the handset was SUPERB! lgood phone for very affordable price no one can beat it. the only problem I encountered was while connected on our wifi/ tried to download some stuffs its a bit slow . I tried to check the speed of our wifi on other gadgets at home its stable and good but when I check on my real me 3 really struggling on getting signal over the wifi. but overall still its good.

  • which is better redmi 7 and realme 3

  • No notification led. Does not heat up for heavy multimedia consumption, not at all. Heats up only when gaming. I get 2 days for multimedia, email, movies,songs, mobile data, wifi with minor games

  • Hey guys, since this phone is already out there, I want to ask few questions 1. Is there double tap to wake ? LED notification? 2. Is this phone heatup while using only for multimedia(browse, YouTube, Netflix, social media) ? 3. How's Color OS compared with One UI's Samsung ?

  • is this goood for gaming? no heating issue?

  • just got this phone today.. 3/64gb I just hope that there will be no issues specially when it comes to gaming like ML/PUBG consider that this phone only has MediaTech Chipset...thanks...I will post my gaming experience here tomorrow..:)

  • I was able to fix the delay touch with just a few clicks. I'll try to make a video just to help my fellow realme 3 user

  • Touch issue on mine is gone been a week now. Im using the 3/64gb variant.

  • its very good for gaming

  • Hey guys, just wanna ask this. Is the Realme 3 still got the delay touch / ghost touch issue? If it is, on which version? Some said it's on the 3/32 version, but also on 6/64. Enlight me please, thanks!

  • I recently bought a brandnew realme 3, is it normal to have a loose charging port using the bundled usb cable?

  • Just awestruck with the amazing 4230 mAh battery, all-powerful Helio P70 Octa core processor and 13 MP front camera. Good one!

  • Pls need your opinion .. iam abig gamer on mob .. is that phone really dependable for that

  • Hello..can i ask something..if play game pes 2019 still lagging or not?

  • go to your file manager, internal memory, you'll see a whatsapp folder, click on it, you'll see a media folder, cclick, then status, that's where all the status you've viewed saves in for 24 hours

  • It can handle PUBG in HD graphic & High FPS without lagging. When I play for 1hr I feel no significant heat up. The battery is also considerably good, it takes about 9 to 10% of battery for 30 mins playing.

  • Hi.. I want to know.. About camera sensor in realme 3..? I read in any article realme 3 pro using a IMX 519.. How about realme 3???

  • Hii..csn i know how to save image, video and etc from whatsapp??

  • Hi, everyone! I want to ask does this phone heat up and lag in PUBG? And just how bad is it to use in sunlight?

  • 4GB/64GB Model Total Ram 3735MB // Available 1900MB I'm not gamer just test on Rpg game [HIT, King's Raid] it's lag quite a bit. Realme 3 is best Perf./Price [ i paid145.99$ for 4/64Model ] I guess Meizu note 9 would be better.

  • good

  • Ram used in Color os 6? How much is left out of the box? 4gb ram model good enough for non gamers?

  • Look at the 3rd page of the review

  • What about screen brightness and use in sunlight is it good .

  • no idea why they said like that, just try compare it with similar phone which is have 4k - 5k battery but just capable of 10w charging (no quick-charge, pump-xpress, etc), i'm pretty sure you will get similar charging time. and also some phone model may behave weirdly while charging, i have friend with note 4x, if he charge it in power off state, the charging time will be longer compared if he charge it with power on + airplane mode. he already measure it with usb power meter, in power off state his phone only get 6w - 8w, but in power on + airplane state it will get 9.x watt.

  • I took a look at Honor 8c. I say go with Realme 3. It' seems significantly better than Honor 8c in everyway. It's the best value phone available right now. Along with Asus ZenFone Max Pro M2 and Realme U1. Redmi Note 7 has too many issues and lower performance so not worth it. Only thing that can make it better is Stock Android or Android One (more stable, faster, consumes less battery, memory & storage) and maybe shorter charge time but the battery will already last at least a day if you play heavy games for hours and up to 2 days on normal usage so that's no problem.

  • Oh ok..but why do other people say this phone doesnt support fast charging

  • thanks it helps me a lot to choose the good handset at very affordable price.. im really looking for a handset w/c s good for gaming /

  • fast charging is just common term for phone which capable accept 9w - 10w input while charging. while qualcom quick charge, mediatek pump express, samsung adaptive fast charge, huawei super charge and other simmilar tech from different company are more advance method, device which support this tech usually capable accept 15w at least.

  • What do you mean? Can you explain it to me properly i dont understand sorry.

  • Spec wise? Realme clearly the winner.

  • Realme 3 or Honor 8c ? Honor 8c is available in the market for 24000Rs While realme 3 will launch some time soon with a price tag of 23000k. Should I wait for Realme 3 or Buy Honor 8c

  • good point.

  • 5v - 2a is fast charging, if you talk about qc quick charging or mt pump express, it's different stuff.

  • If this is not fast charging then they should remove the info of the fast charging 10W in main page because this will confuse people.

  • It's perfect. It can play PUBG at HD graphics, Extreme Frame rate, Realistic Mode butter smooth and that too for 6 to 6.5 hours. The camera is good as well. Helio P60 is about as good as Snapdragon 660, so don't get confused listening to people that don't know what they're talking about. There is only one downfall of this phone, which is that it takes to 2-2.5 hours to charge from 0-100%. But that isn't a issue since its battery life is spectacular. Some may complain about screen being HD instead of FHD but that isn't a problem for gamers. In fact, that's a plus point for us because it means we'll get better battery and performance. Other than this phone, there is also Realme U1 and Asus ZenFone Max Pro M2. There was Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 but the phone is full of bad reviews. Personally, I like Realme 3 and Asus ZenFone Max Pro M2 best.

  • Good spec,but it was too big for me. for a compact phone lover, nokia 5.1 plus is better (it have same chipset and better pixel per inch)

  • IMO not having full hd resolution is a feature. uses less resource like battery and processing power and cost less. and you can't even tell the difference unless you pixel peep

  • Slow charging from 30,% -100%> 2½hrs. 5v/2A mi charger , screen not ideal

  • To keep price low, they have to cut some corners...

  • is this good for gaming ? y they say that Snapdragon is much better compare to mediatek?

  • Still waiting for the Realme 3 Pro. They said it's going to be a beast.

  • Thats what I call discrimination, they put higher SoC for certain country but lower Chipset for others with the same prices. Companies doing this and they wonder why they didnt sold well

  • It has 2 main disadvantages.. 1. Slow charging 2. No full HD display

  • No full HD display is a big let down

  • The bands are split with a line do both the p60 and p70 (india) varient have band 28(700)? Its a important band for Australia as optus uses it for 4g. I think this is a well priced phone for people that keep their phones for a long time or for a first smartphone user.

  • I will buy you this next cut off. lol

  • If the launch it with hello p90, it's going to be a big thing

  • Probably the ugliest phone I saw this year

  • great pricing with helio P70 and a large battery! design is stunning too

  • P70 Variant is only for India. For others it is P60 Variant.

  • qualcom is snapdragon not a mdtk

  • and what about charging time? Is it true this phone does not have fast charging because MediaTek isnt Qualcomm

  • Lol realme 120 $ and redmi 150 $,got to expect better feature set on redmi for it's asking price.

  • This phone costs 120 $,lol you expect 4K and 8 GB ram??

  • There is no P60 variant. Only p70.

  • Got mine. It has a 3GB RAM, 32GB ROM, P60 variant. First use, it's very fast if you ask me. I setup everything without any problem. I received and updated the phone via OTA. For now it satisfy me with my basic needs as long as it doesn't kill my battery right away. The fingerprint scanner is really fast, much better than my IP6 and Samsung Galaxy J7 Prime. Haven't tried the other features yet.

  • How is the ram management on realme 3 for its 4gb varient? What about app reloading or keeping in memory? Please comment on it.

  • Really!!!!please do u have a proof!!!!!

  • Theres a review by android authority which agrees with your sentiment of not an upgrade from realme 2. But maybe it can be sold for first time mobile users, they wont care the comparison between 2 and 3. And besides realme 2 users arent expected to upgrade soon. Here is the review link btw..

  • April! :)

  • Any idea guys when will relme 3pro going to release???

  • where can i buy this realme 3 there is no available in lazada

  • Realme is best midrange phone than others phone under 7000 pesos antutu score of 3gb ram helio p60 is 110k to 138k. Huawei y6 pro 2019 antutu score of 3gb ram helio a22 iz 64k to 66k. oppo s3s antutu of 2gb ram Qualcomm SD 450 is 55k to 74k. oppo a83 antutu score of 2gb ram helio p23 is 80k to 90k.

  • my realme 3 have an update this night? are there changes log for this update?

  • Yes that together with flash sale on lazada indonesia.but realme 3 mor low price than redmi 7. So i.m choice realme 3

  • yes, there's also an exclusive variant on shoppee for php 6,990 as far as i can remember

  • Why they used 2.0 Micro Usb instead Type C? it's already March 2019, but any ways, this budget phone is great on its price.

  • With Redmi Note 7 already launched and Redmi 7 is coming, I think by next month Realme to reduce their prices on Realme 3 series. Thats good for consumers, more options is better..

  • FYI P60 and P70 has good standards. Having a 12nm processor helps battery performance. Also, Oppo F9 which as the same processor has received good feed backs.

  • Damn True.

  • in the Philippines?

  • in the oppo store it can be bought

  • Realme since May 2018 has launched 7 phones. Realme 1, Realme 2, Realme 2 Pro, Realme C1, Realme U1, Realme C1 (2019) and Realme 3. Of these, Realme 2 was rebranded Oppo A5, Realme C1 and C1 (2019) were rebranded Oppo A3s. So basically what company has been doing is taking phones which have not sold well or flopped in various markets (due to high prices and mediocre specs), apply some makeup and lipstick and sell them as Realme products. Now it's not a bad thing in itself since the prices are good. But by no standards do the phones offer cutting edge features or innovation in any way. It would be safe to ssume this strategy will continue in future also. Oppo phone which have been launched recently and are not selling well, are likely to be launched as Realme 4, 5, 6....

  • I wish i bought this instead of Oppo a3s,but its ok i can find a case of this

  • Malaysia market selling RM699 for 4/64 version and RM599 for 3/32 version.Early bird got discount RM50 also.

  • If you see the reports for the past 2 years, Oppo / Vivo made a loss of INR 482 Crores in FY 2017 and a loss of INR 1225 Crores in first 6 months of FY 2018. In the same period Xiaomi / Redmi has grown to take a 29% marketshare. The CEO of Oppo India had to resign due to losses not Xiaomi India. So it is clear that this mess of having multiple brands is having an impact more on Oppo / Vivo than Xiaomi against whom the brand was built to compete with. BBK is a funny Chinese company. Not content with 4 brands now they have launched one more in China Reno.

  • It doesnt matter if you buy the Realme C1 or the Oppo A3S, both companies are owned by BBK Electronics, so it is still a win win for them, unlike if you buy a Xiaomi, that is a loss since that is a rival. It may look like cannabalization, but still the company who owns these sub brands still win.

  • The product placement strategies by all the manufacturers show real deperatiin to get even a single phone sale. Case in point Realme 3 priced at 9000/-. Now in the Indian market Realme 2 is still available for 9500/- and C1 (3/32) for 8500/-. So which buyer will buy R2 or C1 now? The same is happening between brands like Realme and Oppo. Realme C1 is basically a rebranded Oppo 3s. And the price difference is about 2500/-. So who will buy Oppo when you are getting the same phone for 2500/- less. So not only ate brands cannibalising sales withung their own brand but also other brands from the same company.

  • No realme does not have ads The only two brands (that I know) which have ads are xiaomi and samsung

  • Is Realme 3 have gyro? Since I see many Indonesian reviews (Global version) said it have and works well but GSMArena not write it.

  • Yeah, :like:

  • Agree. Realme 3 can be compared with other budget phones like Samsung M10, C1, micromax N11 and N12 and variousbother budget offerings from companies like Techno Camon, Infinix etc. It is just worng to compare with other devices like Redmi Note 7 or Redmi Note 7 pro, Galaxy M20, M30 etc which are in a different segment.

  • I think realme 3 is a great phone. I saw many hate comment about this phone, like the processor, or resolution of the screen. C'mon, target market of this phone is middle-down, so don't compare this phone to other phone with higher price.

  • The feeling I get from seeing Realme launch so many devices without a coherent product placement strategy is that they are using whatever components are left over from production of Oppo / Vivo phones in China, combining these together and launching a new device. I mean out of the 5-7 devices the company has launched, majority are forgettable and have probably not sold well. The only bright sparks seem to be Realme 1 and Realme 2 Pro. It would make better sense for the company to come out with fewer devices but killer devices in each price bracket. A killer device < 10000/- against which no other phone could compete in terms of specs. A killer device < 15000/- that takes on the likes of Redmi Pro or Honor devices. And a 20000 phone that takes on Poco or say likes of Nokia 7.1 / 8.1. Realme 3 is another forgettable device. The company says its a upgrade for Realme 2 but I dont see why people who have a Realme 2 would buy it instead of Realme 2 Pro or Redmi Note 7 which have better specs.

  • Hi, Please spend your money on worthy snapdragon processor and others except mediatek, as their processors are always sub standard.

  • Many people are comparing Realme 3 with Redmi Note 7. There is no comparison. RN7 has a FHD display while RM3 has a HD display. RN7 has USB3 while RM3 has USB2. RN7 has a glass build while RM3 has a plastic build. Color OS vs MIUI no comparison. The only areas where once could say Realme 3 is better are rear cameras and battery. But still RN7 is a better buy.

  • These Realme flash sales are really funny. Normally for other brands we have seen there is one flash sale which normally ends in a few minutes, and then there is a waiting period of a few days for the next flash sale which allows the company to bring in new stock. The first flash sale of this phone was at 12:00 PM today. And the second sale is happening now at 8:00 PM. So there are 2 possibilities. Either Realme did not sell in the first sale. Or they have hired a concorde to bring in the supplies. In a few years time flash sales will be like first sale 12:00 PM. Second flash sale 12:30 PM. Third flash sale 1:00 PM.......:-)

  • Realme 2 pro................coz it has a larger camera sensor and will be getting the same chroma boost, nightscape mode on the update very soon.........it has SD 660 with adreno GPU and has a full HD resolution

  • Is realme also display adds like redmi?

  • Phones in india and china are always cheaper than the rest of the world due to import taxes Realme uses a slower chipset in order to lower the price difference between the global and indian varients and to increase its profit Don't worry there is no major difference between helio p60 and helio p70

  • why global get helio P60 and India gets helio P70 ? will the global version be priced cheaper than India P70 ?? what a rip off Realme !

  • realme 2 pro

  • 1956 phone with 127$ price tag what's the problem introduce me a better device with better specs for 127$

  • which best realme 3 vs realme 2 pro?

  • Realme 3 is for those who are upgrading from C1 & Realme 2. Hence cheap specs For Realme U1 and Pro users there is Realme 3 pro coming soon.

  • but realme 3 focus on night photo and battery life durable

  • Too bad specifications. Better go and buy realme 2 pro or realme u1..

  • It is unbelievable price with those high specs. Too bad it doesn't support NFC.

  • In 2007 you won't get hd screen with that price

  • If only the screen resolution was a bit better,,,,sigh

  • The price belongs to 1956

  • Waste of my time Ian waiting for realme 3 Totally waste of my time real me 2pro is best phone

  • Realme 3! Really is a greart phone

  • Exactly. In my country prices of Sony L3 satrt also at 199 bucks but some greedy retailers sells it up to 278 for a new device.

  • The Xperia L3 is 199€ where I live, but anyway, the Realme 3 is a better deal with it's more powerful SoC, camera, bigger battery and more recent Android version.

  • That screen resolution belongs in 2007. What a shame

  • No gyroscope? So there is no eis for the camera?

  • Realme 3 way better

  • The Umidigi S3 pro is better

  • Obviously realme 3

  • realme 3 is best because samsung is overpriced

  • 3 pro should come with USB C & Led notification!!

  • Realme 3 is far better than M20 not only M10. Maybe even better than M30 if we compare specs and price. Also is far better than Sony L3 which cost 300 bucks.

  • Samsung m10 vs realme 3. Which is best??????

  • so its just Realme 3 not pro :3 wait for pro it's gonna be good hopefully

  • Good
