BrendonF, 21 May 2020Fair enough. Maybe the focus should be the X2 vs the IPhone... moreMay be right. Apple did take the axe to its feet when they said they've got the best single cam Apple has ever thrown at the customers.
I was thinking to put it right in competition with Oppo, OP, Xiaomi, Asus, LG, Pixels of the same time.

                Anonymous, 20 May 2020Video callingBandwidth and compression the bottleneck probably there, not the camera itself, for 99.9% of people, probably.

                      Why taking pictures with self cam if we have rear cam wich produce 100× better result + gcam
                      Set the timer and turn the phone and that's it ×1000 better result with rear + gcam

The Iphone X is still sold in many countries and the Realme is cheaper than the Iphone X still. So its a valid comparison. A more valid comparison would be to the Iphone SE as the pricing of the X2 is more comparable to that phone.

                            It's surprising that they got this low score. May be they didn't pay enough to DXO.
                            And comparison to a 3 gen older iPhone X is so lame. Isn't this supposed to be RealMe's fake flagship material?

                              Never really understood the need for a high quality selfie camera... I mean yeah, if I'm doing a video conference I want the other person to see me, but things like color balance or texture... If I just really need to snap a high quality photo, why not just use a rear cam?

                              Besides, I'm pretty sure 99% of times people just take selfies to post to some instagram where the images are compressed anyway...

                                      What a surprise, trying to make smaller and smaller camera to make smaller and smaller notches and holes giving mediocre results, it was sooo unexpected that things like that would happen !
                                      But then peoples want underdisplay selfie camera...

                                      There is only TWO solution to have a good front camera :
                                      Bezel or pop up, the latter being the only currently available and viable solution to have front camera AND fulldisplay.
                                      Well there are more solutions, but those two are the solution that peoples hate the least...
