The development of 5G has been consistent
since its commercialization early last year. Last year, we had a couple of 5G
smartphones, all of which were flagship devices. However, this year, there have
been a lot of mid-range 5G phones. Most of these devices sell for US$ 200 and
above. Now, it is interesting that we already have 5G devices with a price tag
of less than US$ 150. Today, Realme officially announced that the Realme V3 will
make history tomorrow as the cheapest ever 5G smartphone. It will commence
sales on September 9th and its starting price is 999 yuan (US$ 146).
The Realme V3 has three configurations
which are 6GB+64GB, 6GB+128GB and 8GB+128GB versions. These versions cost 999
yuan (US$ 146), 1,399 yuan (US$ 205), 1,599 yuan (US$ 234) respectively. According to
the company, many 5G phones with the same spec cost more than 1000 yuan. This
makes the Realme V3 very competitive.
The Realme V3 comes with a 6.5-inch waterdrop
screen with a resolution of 1600 × 720. Under the hood, this smartphone uses a
MediaTek Dimensity 720 processor. In the camera department, it boasts of an 8MP
selfie shooter. On the rear, it comes with a triple camera configuration. It
has a 13MP main camera + 2MP macro + 2MP sensors. Furthermore, this smartphone
comes with a 5000 mAh battery that supports 18W fast charge.
The official data shows that the Realme V3
5000 mAh large battery has a 24 hours standby time. If on a continuous call,
its working time can reach 33 hours. When on continuous music, it can play
thousands of songs at a go.
