Author’s Opinion
The Realme 3 Pro is a mid-range smartphone. It comes with a powerful configuration that shows no sign of a glitch. The display is excellent which will allow the user to watch movies and play games with natural colour reproduction. For the camera performance, the device has maintained its position by using the same sensor which we have seen on OnePlus 6T.
Talking about the competition in this price range of around 14K, the real competitors of this smartphone are Redmi Note 7 Pro, Samsung Galaxy M30, Honor 10 Lite, Realme 2 Pro and Asus Zenfone Max Pro M2. So, the competition in this price range is high.
If compared with the competition, the smartphone is offering different features like gradient pattern design, Sony IMX519 sensor, 20W fast charging and 25MP front camera. But it also lacks in some like Micro USB port in 2019 which is just not acceptable.
Overall, We recommend Realme 3 Pro to buy in this price range. However, at the time of writing this article, our first recommendation will be Redmi Note 7 Pro (Flash Review).
