| Realme 3 Pro |
Playing around with the new Realme 3 Pro, we’re impressed that it can really deliver flagship-like photos. In fact, when you upload these images on your social media account, others might think that it came from a premium handset.
The most impressive feature of the device is its Nightscape mode. Through this, users can capture great images in lowlight settings. Noises were not that visible, too. Also, we like its Portrait mode, as it has good bokeh effect.

However, we’re not too happy about its front camera's performance. We noticed that photos were too warm in well-lighted places including outdoors. Ironically, in lowlight settings, the images were clean and impressive. Meanwhile, another thing we didn’t like about its selfie camera is its aggressive bokeh effect.

Its AI Beautification did its job, as it could really enhance photos by removing blemishes, dark circles and etc. We just observed that even when we turned it off, the device still enhances our selfies. This might be a turn off for people who prefer natural-looking images.
Overall, the Realme 3 Pro was able to meet our expectations. Moreover, if you’re looking for a photography-centric smartphone, it's wise to consider getting the device because it won't require too much bucks.
