    I got 11.5 hours of SOT with 100% battery after update.

    Note: it was on standby for around 12 hours so it would last longer in a non-stop test. And it's including 3.5 hours of PUBG at Smooth + Extreme FPS. So it's pretty good.
    I think 3.5 hours of PUBG drained between 40-45% of battery but I might have lowered resolution.

    Rest was 2.5 hours of MX Player playing FHD video,
    2+ hours of FB,
    40min Music Player,
    some YouTube, TikTok, Whatsapp, Messenger, Google Drive, Browsing and Screen Recording.

      With this Gcam, its camera is also much better than Huawei Y9 Prime 2019 (also a friend's). When we go out, we usually use my phone for taking pics instead of his. Especially when there is low light.

      Only if the Gcam didn't have lag... It kind of ruins the camera experience, as you've to keep phone still.

        You can use Gcam which does take excellent pictures and videos but problem is that you've to wait for it to click pics or if you resort to ZSL HDR which clicks immediately, the camera has lag.

        The best Gcam I've found is:
        GCam_7.2.018_marlin_test.apk by onFire.
        It has best portrait edge (better than iPhone 7 Plus) as well as blur quality, high detail, low noise and colours are accurate as well.
        But you need to adjust its Lib Patcher before using it.

          Anonymous, 23 May 2020is your software/firmware version c.10?. i have updated to ... moreYup, .C10. It is a pretty big update.

          I think App Quick Freeze is similar to Greenify on rooted devices. Very useful, but they should add a homescreen short cut for it just like Greenify's "Hibernate Now".

          I'm loving the update so far. They also added a performance mode that you can access in Battery section. Using that with Game Space for PUBG works great.

          Yeah, previous notification bar was more appealing but this one is equally useful. I also like that they added Screen Cast in Notification Bar, so I can stream on TV/LED.

          And yup, I also love the quick app switch feature. If you draw a semi circle/rainbow at the bottom of your screen, you will switch to previous app.
          We don't have to waste time opening Recent App list to switch between apps anymore.

          Though I'm using swipe up navigation bar of Realme OS instead of original Android 10. Android 10 navigation is similar but it gets in way of glide typing, like if I glide from "P", it would trigger the "Return/Go back" gesture.

          Gyroscope has become very quick. It's finally usable in PUBG. I played PUBG sniper TDM and it improved my aim a lot, even though it was my first time trying Gyro. I got 17 kills in very first Sniper TDM with Gyro.

          I've also noticed that app switch speed has increased a lot. If you click on a YouTube link on Google, YouTube app opens immediately and video starts playing just a second later.

New C3 is also very power full ( for gaming) but camera is its weak point. Also new realme phones are getting bigger and bigger.

It came with a... moreis your software/firmware version c.10?. i have updated to this version and please check out a feature called 'app quick freeze'. Overall am satisfied with realme ui , but i don't like notification bar that much because it looks like its from one ui. I also like 'swipe gestures from both side'.

                    All of Realme phones have good performance as far as I know. Don't think Redmi and Realme are same. MIUI phones always haver lower performance.

                    And care to explain what hardware issue results in a 12+ hour SOT phone to give 3 hour SOT and make Helio P60/70 lag?

                    And why don't people like him make a second comment about their issue?
                    They just come, spout far fetched nonsense that only tech-dumb people would believe and disappear. You never hear from them again.

                    You would know he was lying if you knew anything about phones.

                                khan ye, 13 May 2020should i buy it for pubgDepending on your budget, you can buy better phones for PUBG.

                                If you live in Pakistan, these are best budget phones for PUBG:
                                Realme 3 (23,500 / 4,64)
                                Realme 5 (24,500 / 4,64) - It has Gyro sensor.
                                Infinix Note 7 (25,500 / 4,128)
                                Nokia 7 Plus (28,500) / 4,64) - It has Gyro sensor.
                                Realme 5 Pro (31,500) / 4,128) - It has Gyro sensor. I highly recommend this phone.

                                If you live in India, I think most powerful budget phone is Realme 3 Pro. Costs 8k or 9k.
                                It has Gyro sensor and similar performance as Realme 5 Pro.

                                  khan ye, 13 May 2020should i buy it for pubgYes! But what other options do you've?
                                  I've this phone for almost a year and 0 issues so far. Its camera isn't that good but if you install Gcam, it'll make up for it.

                                  I'm Ace in PUBG. With PGT Pro app, I get 40-45FPS, which is pretty good.
                                  SOT in PUBG is 7-9 hours, depending on what frame rate you play on.

                                  This phone doesn't have Gyro sensor so Gyroscope doesn't work properly on games. But if you don't play with Gyroscope, then no issues.
