I didn't update from onFire Marlin test version because it's been best out of all I've tried, including later ones. And I've tried almost all Gcam except for the latest ones.
Nightsight doesn't work but the colours, details, portrait blur, noise were handled very good after I messed around in LibPatcher.

Does your Gcam lags in HDR+ when you move or is it smooth?
For example, mine is like it's like playing a game or video on 5FPS.
Gcam 6.1 didn't lag but I think it didn't have option to click immediately, I think.

    Realme user, 27 May 2020I have received a notification of the realme UI and Android... moreYou can safely update. This is best update Realme 3 got as far as I'm concerned.
    If your storage isn't enough, it'll probably just not update. You should free up some space.

    What most android users don't understand is it's important to reset a budget phone after a major update (Android 9 to Android 10). It fixes bugs almost every time.

    If you face bugs, you can move important folders like DCIM and Downloads to external storage and back up your apps. That way, you'll only need to re-login after reset.

      I didn't back up my apps but it took me 5-10min to download them. We've given you a solution that'll likely fix any bug you're experiencing. You can also refer to Realme own website to tell developers about it.

For me it takes photo immediately if i select 'HDR+' and if i select 'HDR enhanced' it will take some time to process.

            Realme321GO, 28 May 2020how do we contact realme to complain??? its our only hopejust reset your phone after backing up your apps, messages, contacts etc to SD card. you don't have to re download the apps if you back up. But your app data will be lost and you have to sign in again( for example Whatsap). Just try it .

              how do we contact realme to complain??? its our only hope

                I have received a notification of the realme UI and Android 10 updates, if I update I'm worried that my phone will be a bug, considering 1 GB total update memory makes the storage space not enough, the operating system may not run smoothly and the battery will be wasteful, I after joined forum and realme community that some people have differences cases after updating, some are running smoothly and some are bugs.

                  This new update destroyed my sound system. Only left side of my handset is working. I've checked my handset, they're fine though. The issue is with the phone. Can anyone help me ?

That's one full day's work of redownloadng and reinstalling a thousand apps , I didn't want to install this update anyway but they're so sketchy they download it in the background and bait you Into clicking install setting up traps that basically force you to install the update

                    I disabled auto check and auto download updates in dev options but it did nothing!

                      I will begin uploading videos screen recordings of the issues with this phone for all to see

                        I've none of the issues you mentioned. I feel like my device is much faster in every way and the handful of bugs I experienced on Pie are now gone.
                        The camera quality has slightly improved as well but I'd still prefer Gcam.

                        I did reset my phone right after the update. So I suggest you try the same before going through the trouble of rolling back. The update is pretty good and brought a lot of improvements with Android 10.

                        I don't understand what you mean by slow app menu and notification. It seems just as fast to me.
                        Are you referring to the animation scale? I've set it to 0 in Developer's Options. Try doing that.

                            Gustang and Realme321GO, if your issue is genuine and you aren't the same pathetic guy writing fake reviews using VPN to change IP tag... Like I think you are...

                            Try moving DCIM and Downloads folder to external storage and reset your phone. Your data won't be deleted, except that you'll have to reinstall apps. Updates often cause problem in phones and reseting fixes it almost every time.

                            I didn't find anyone on official Realme 3 forum and Realme Facebook groups with your issue. Nor here on Gsmarena. Even if a update brings issues, the same issue is shared by many users.
                            It's not a lucky draw where one user gets 1 issue and second user gets another issue.

                              Realme 3 has fastest fingerprint sensor out of all phones in this price. Even Gsmarena said it's faster than many flagship phones.

                                  My sister just called me, she Update to realme ui.... The fingerprint sensor becomes unusable. Might as well be a bitter lesson. If youre not tech savvy and your phone is alright... Better leave it be, dont update firmware unless really necessary, especially chinese phone. High risk of getting annoying bug and error installation more than the benefit of update offers

                                    This latest update killed phone performance and now there's too much lag and bugs. How do I rollback!?!? Or do I have to root it now ? Fuxin handset makers forcing updates down your throat ugh!!!

                                      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.
