Realme has officially introduced its new flagship model X3 SuperZoom. The model, like other representatives of this series, makes the main bet on the design and the capabilities of the camera. As the name implies, the main advantage of the Quad-camera smartphone is the possibility of optical and digital zoom. An 8-megapixel periscope camera with optical image stabilization provides 5x optical and 60x hybrid zoom, thereby expanding the capabilities of the 64-megapixel main sensor and the 8-megapixel wide-angle sensor (capture angle 115 degrees). In addition, Realme has added a mode for “Astrophotography”, as part of the advanced Nightscape Pro Night Mode.
Realme X3 SuperZoom debuts with a 120Hz display and 60x hybrid zoom
Contrary to trends, Realme did not introduce this smartphone into the category of 5G smartphones, abandoning the use of not only the Snapdragon 865, but also the Snapdragon 765G. Instead, it uses the still strong last year’s flagship Snapdragon 855+ in conjunction with 12GB LPDDR4X RAM and 256GB UFS 3.0 ROM with Turbo Write technology.
Realme will try to unleash the potential of the fast hardware thanks to the 120-Hz IPS panel with Full HD + resolution, which includes a dual 32 + 8-megapixel front camera with a capture angle of 105 degrees. Well, the battery for 4200 mAh with 30W fast charging is responsible for autonomy here.
