Reviews for the Realme X3 SuperZoom

83.5% Realme X3 SuperZoom Smartphone Review - Scores some major points thanks to attention to detail | Notebookcheck
The two main features of the Realme X3 SuperZoom are the 5x periscope zoom and a 120 Hz screen. On paper, the powerful Realme smartphone with the Snapdragon 855+ and plenty of RAM should be superior to other devices in our review. However, that is not the case, at least as far as the raw performance is concerned. That being said, the Realme flagship offers great data transfer speeds, thanks to UFS 3.0 memory and a 2x2 MIMO modem.

Realme are finding their feet in the smartphone battle and will probably need to do something a bit different in the future to stand out, but for now this is a good phone and will help the brand challenge in the UK.

realme X3 SuperZoom Review — It’s all about the optics
Source: Fone Arena English Archive.org version
So, should you buy the realme X3 SuperZoom? The realme X3 SuperZoom gets most of the things right with few shortcomings. It shines with a fantastic performance, great battery life, and has the best zoom capabilities as of now in the sub Rs. 30,000 price segment. On the other hand, the design is familiar and there is nothing new here. Similarly, it falls short in the display department and the camera performance in low-light ain’t that impressive. If you are looking for a smartphone under Rs. 30,000 that offers an amazing performance, solid build quality, and versatile camera setup, then the realme X3 is highly recommended. If not, check out the competitors in this price segment.

Realme X3 SuperZoom Full Review – Affordable Flagship with 120Hz Display
Source: Manila Shaker English Archive.org version
For us, this phone is a flagship killer, but by observation, it’s hard to make a flagship killer phone this year as we got expensive flagship soc with 5G capability currently competing in the market and this will cause a price increase on the device. The bright side, Realme made a cheaper but flagship phone feel.

Realme X3 review: Consider it for its imaging, performance and ease of use
Source: Business Standard English Archive.org version
Priced Rs 24,999 onwards, the Realme X3 makes for an excellent value for money in the midrange smartphone segment. Its display is the only thing that may pinch but that is a small flaw, considering the phone’s affordable pricing and overall package. Consider this one for its imaging, performance and ease of use.

70% Realme X3 review: Impressive but room for improvement
Source: Neowin English Archive.org version
The Realme X3 starts at ₹24,999 in India for 6GB RAM and 128GB storage, while in Europe, the Realme X3 SuperZoom is available for €499 packing 12GB RAM and 256GB storage. At this price point, there's a lot to like about the Realme X3 series including its solid performance, camera features, and attractive design. However, I can't help but feel that Realme's own X2 Pro, which is available for the same or slightly lower price, is a more attractive offering than the X3. You do miss out on the periscope zoom camera of the X3 SuperZoom, but otherwise, you get similar specs with a superior 90Hz Super AMOLED display, better primary camera performance, and stereo speakers. It also comes with a crazy 50W SuperVOOC flash charger that can charge the phone from 0-100% in just 35 minutes.

The Realme X3 SuperZoom is a good smartphone overall. Its major strength is the 5x periscope zoom camera and the dual front-facing cameras, which let you shoot portrait-mode videos. If the periscope zoom is something that you desire, then the X3 SuperZoom is the only offering in this price segment.

Coming in at of PHP 24,990 for the 12GB+256GB configuration, the Realme X3 SuperZoom is packed with top-notch, flagship features and is a good value for the price. An 8GB+128GB option does exist, but unfortunately, it will not be available in the Philippines. Hey, at least we’ve got the better variant, right? You can get one for yourself on official Realme stores and e-commerce websites such as Lazada and Shopee.

Realme X3 Super Zoom comes with a price tag of Rs 27,999 (base price). The price goes high up to Rs 32,999 for the 12GB RAM variant. Is it a good buy? With an impressive camera, large battery life and smooth performance, the smartphone have just the right amount of everything that one needs from a smartphone these days. Its closest competitors will be OnePlus 7T and the company’s own Realme X2 Pro.

The Realme X3 SuperZoom has everything premium under its belt including a 64MP quad-camera module with a periscopic telephoto sensor, 120Hz refresh rates, durable battery, and a good processor. And to check the price in the affordable flagship ballpark, it sensibly uses Snapdragon 855+ SoC, which effectively blurs the performance parameters with the latest Snapdragon 865 SoC.

It has got a zoom in its name. And it lives up to it. The Realme X3 SuperZoom adds a new dimension to the budget flagship battle by bringing in a camera that lets you snap the moon, if not the stars (not always, anyways).

Like the classic football analogy, the Realme X3 Super Zoom is a phone of two halves. There’s a lot of eye-popping features here like the 120Hz display, periscope lens and 30w charging – all of which you’ll rarely find at this price. But with real world use some things just don’t fall into place. The lack of 5G will annoy some, the camera needs to focus on what it wants to do best rather than try to do everything and the design doesn’t quite match the price-tag.

Realme X3 SuperZoom Unboxing, Quick Review: Is This The Budget Flagship You’ve Been Waiting For?
Source: Unbox English Archive.org version
The Realme X3 SuperZoom has great potential to be an excellent flagship alternative when it’s officially launched in the Philippines, though the price will still be a factor here. While Realme hasn’t officially announced pricing for the phone, it retails for around INR 27,999 (around Php 18K) for the 8GB/128GB variant and INR 32,999 (Php 21.7K) for the top-tier 12GB/256GB variant. Take note though that this is Indian pricing for the phone – local pricing will be a little higher thanks to how our taxes work, so don’t be surprised if the phone is a tad more expensive here than India.

I hear many people buy last year’s flagships and there is a good reason to do this– to save a lot of money and yet you still get a decent phone. This phone is basically that — last year’s premium flagship. Is it the best mid-range device around? Unlikely but it is certainly a contender.

Realme X3 hands-on review
Source: GSM Arena English Archive.org version
All in all, the Realme X3 is a reasonably well rounded package - at first glance, but also accounting for our experience with its close relative, the X3 SuperZoom. Both X3s make a whole lot more sense at their asking price in India than what Realme charges for the SuperZoom in Europe. Even so, we can't help but think that better value can be had on other models in the company's lineup.

This might be one of the best bang-for-your-buck phones we've seen. There's fast-charging, a long-lasting battery, a great display, and powerful internals. We're not keen on the side-mounted fingerprint sensor, but the plastic frame hasn't bothered us, nor has the absence of 5G. However, the camera results are inconsistent, which feels at odds with that being the phone's big sell.

Model:

Realme, the fledgling Oppo sub-brand within the BBK Electronics empire, is on the boil. The X3 Superzoom is the company’s latest entry, this time taking on the mid-range multi-camera competition head first. The Realme X3 Superzoom seems to have the camera goods on paper. It is equipped with a 64MP main sensor (the same Samsung GW1 found on the Realme X2 Pro), plus an ultra-wide lens, a macro lens, and 5x optical zoom. While the X3 Superzoom’s cameras do pan out some impressive shots, it is not always the case. Some photos were as good as one would expect from a more expensive camera, while others ended up being a rather muddy and noisy mess. Well, inconsistency is perhaps the Superzoom cameras’ greatest flaw. Even with the white balance, while it will be perfect across all lenses at one moment, it certainly becomes wildly variable the next time around.

As for the macro lens, some fixed focus macro shots were great, while others were too noisy and fuzzy to be worth keeping. The ultra-wide lens can be said to be one of the worst cameras on the X3 Superzoom. Some of the notable common issues with the camera include magenta vignetting, excessive noise and under-exposure. In some shots with a bright light source, the image tends to end up with peculiar fog-like areas. While the ultra-wide lens is definitely passable in the daytime, it is not particularly impressive when the lighting is not perfect. The main 64MP main sensor bins down to 16MP images and does an admirable job as the primary shooter. Daytime photos tend to be very even-handed with no crazy saturation or heavy-handed HDR effects. Apart from that, the Realme X3 Superzoom camera comes with a whole host of night modes, including a regular night mode as well as a tripod mode for 50-second exposures for capturing light trails and the like.

In terms of its display, this X3 Superzoom has been equipped with a 6.6-inch Full-HD+ IPS panel. The LCD panel is surprisingly good, because it performs well even without producing the same inky blacks as OLED panels. It also has a high 120Hz refresh rate, which is definitely great, but it does take a while for every app, game and streaming service to support such a high refresh rate. As for the battery, the device carries a 4,200mAh battery with a 30W fast charging. As far as the performance is concerned, the Realme X3 Superzoom comes with the Snapdragon 855 Plus processor with either 8 GB or 12 GB of RAM along with 128 GB or 256 GB of storage for users to choose from. The Snapdragon 855 Plus may not be this year’s best silicon, but it was last year’s. If there is no need for 5G or 8K video, the 855 Plus should do just fine in terms of performance. Overall, the Realme X3 Superzoom is definitely a great phone to explore, although it depends on the need and preference of the user.
