Realme launched the first-ever 5G-enabled flagship smartphone, the Realme X50 Pro, in India in February earlier this year. It is not done with flagship launches though. The Chinese giant has launched the Realme X3 series, including the vanilla Realme X3 and X3 SuperZoom in India today. These are 4G flagships for the mass market, offering last year’s Snapdragon 855+ chipset, 120Hz display, and 64MP quad rear-cameras, among other things for a more affordable price than the X50 Pro.
Realme X3 SuperZoom was first launched in Europe earlier last month while it is the first time that the company is talking about the vanilla Realme X3 publically. Starting off with the design, both of the phones look like any other Realme device – shiny and vertical quad-camera with a yellow highlight. There’s no AMOLED display on the front so you will find a side-mounted physical fingerprint sensor onboard and it doubles as the power button.
The vanilla Realme X3 includes a 16MP primary sensor and an 8MP ultra-wide sensor inside the punch-hole cutout. It’s only a minor difference but you can still click some amazing selfies.
Realme X3 SuperZoom also features a quad-camera setup on the rear. It is helmed by a 64MP Samsung GW1 primary sensor. You also find an 8MP ultra-wide camera with a 115-degree FOV, an 8MP periscope camera with OIS, 5x optical zoom and 60x hybrid digital zoom capability, and finally a 2MP macro lens.
The standard Realme X3 has been priced at Rs. 24,999 for the 6GB+128GB base variant whereas the higher-end 8GB+128GB variant is priced at Rs. 25,999 in India.
Realme X3 SuperZoom, on the other hand, has been priced starting at Rs. 27,999 for the 8GB+128GB variant. You will, however, need to shell out Rs. 32,999 for the top-end 12GB+256GB variant in India.
Realme X3 SuperZoom will be available to buy in two colorways, namely Glacier Blue and Arctic White. It will go on sale starting from 30th June, exclusively on Realme’s online store and Flipkart in India.
