The Realme Pad 3 is launching as a mid-range tablet with an 11.6-inch display, an especially large 12,200 mAh battery, and quad speakers at prices starting at the equivalent of around $300. The tablet will initially be available in India.

The Realme Pad 3 is positioned as an alternative to the Apple iPad and is intended to offer a larger display at a lower price. Realme has equipped it with an 11.61-inch IPS display in 7:5 format, a resolution of 2,800 x 2,000, a refresh rate of 120 Hz, and a full-surface brightness of 550 nits.

The mid-range tablet features a 6.6-millimeter-thick, 578-gram metal case that houses a comparatively large 12,200 mAh battery that can be charged via USB-C at up to 45 watts, with the tablet also functioning as a power bank and charging smartphones or accessories at 6.5 watts. Realme advertises a battery life of 16.7 hours of video streaming. In conjunction with quad speakers, the tablet is said to be ideal for multimedia applications.
 


For productivity applications, Realme offers a keyboard cover, which, however, lacks a trackpad. The tablet is powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 7300-Max with four ARM Cortex-A78 performance cores and four Cortex-A55 efficiency cores. Further features include an 8 MP selfie camera, an 8 MP main camera, a microSD card reader and a fingerprint sensor in the lock button.

The Realme Pad 3 will first be launched in India, where the base model with 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of flash storage will be available for INR 26,999 (approx. $300), while the top model with 8 GB of RAM, 256 GB of storage, and a 5G modem will cost INR 31,999 (approx. $355). Realme is yet to comment on a possible international launch.
