The Realme Q3 Pro is the leader of the pack yet its launch price is that much higher, CNY 1,600 (US$ 245/€ 205). That kind of money buys you a capable handset based on the 6 nm Dimensity 1100 chipset with four Cortex-A78 cores (2.6 GHz), four A55s and a 9-core Mali-G77 GPU. The built-in sub-6 GHz modem offers peak download speeds of 4.67 Gbps.
The chipset runs Android 11 (Realme UI
2.0) and renders it on the 6.43” AMOLED display (1080p+). It has a 120 Hz
refresh rate and 360 Hz touch sampling rate, plus it has full coverage of the
DCI-P3 color space. There is a fingerprint reader built into the display. A
vapor chamber, 3,175 mm² in size, keeps the chip running cool – up to 15ÂșC
cooler, according to Realme. Performance is also enhanced by the UFS 3.1
storage, 128 or 256 GB in size, and the 8 GB of RAM.
Going around the back we see a triple
camera based on a 64 MP main module with 4K 60 fps video recording. Then
there’s the 8 MP ultra wide-angle camera (119Âș), plus a 2 MP macro cam. The
camera on the front has a 16 MP sensor. The phone is equipped with stereo
speakers with Dolby Atmos support and Hi-Res Audio. You may be glad to hear
that a 3.5 mm headphone jack is present on the bottom.
The Pro is powered by a 4,500 mAh battery
with 30W fast charging support (a power adapter is included in the retail
package). A full charge takes just under an hour. The Realme Q3 Pro will be
available in a week with a starting price of CNY 1,600, although the cheapest
option in the official store right now is CNY 1,800. Sales start April 29 at
midnight.
You can pick one of three colors, but the
first one – dubbed Firefly – has a phosphorescent DARE TO LEAP logo on the
back.
