Look at the photo in x10 zoom: it's soft, blurry, not details, any smartphone with x5 and x10 periscopic zoom does better in x10 zoom while being more compact

It had lte. It had android. It had apps. Only thing missing in the camera, was normal phone. But you could still use messenger, Skype, wa and so on.

    So no, there's no excuse. And you can easily get a pocket camera for 300$ with 10x optical zoom. Not 3x as you claim that's all a pocket camera has.

You shouldn't expect a phone (that could be used to play games, video call, streaming) to have the same capabilities as a camera at the same price, do you think that your 800$ camera could be used to play games in it? Lol

They could easily put bigger sensor, with only 1 or 2 lenses. Instead of 3-5 lenses and tiny sensors. Digital boosts simply can't match the real thing.

                        Realme, produce a proper flagship with flat 6.5-6.6" screen, great camera, latest SD processor and then will talk. Curved screen? Thanks, but no thanks.

                              So it will come with 135mm f1.8 tele lens? Good news. Sadly the sensor can't make up for it.

                                If it's coming with 8mp ultrawide, it shouldn't be ranked as a flagship phone.

                                  it's going to be sold in China only :(

                                    dcdev, 08 Nov 2023I haven't heard about Realmi in photography before 🤔They were actually great with the GT2 Pro. The main camera has never been bad, but the GT2 Pro also shined in other areas. It had a 50MP ultrawide with a 150° FOV, which is a unique selling point imo, and also had a 3MP micro sensor with AF and 40× zoom. I don't understand why they replaced the competent and unique ultrawide with a tiny generic 1/4.0"-type 8MP ultrawide that only has a 112° FOV.

                                    Edit: Made some edits because apparently the ultrawide was 1/2.76"-type, likely the Samsung JN1 sensor, but they produced great pictures with it. Also, it had a micro sensor rather than a periscope.

                                      Fix the ultra wide sensor and then we can start talking
