    Bought Realme 5 pro and so far too good. This low budget phone could give tough time to expensive highend phones from Samsung etc.

    It's camera is so good in low light conditions and nightscape mode shoots so much good pics you will be amazed by the result. Found selfies taken by it even better than Galaxy s9+.

    VOOC charger charges my phone full from 1 percent to 100 percent in just 1 hour 15 minutes.

    Display is so good that even in sunlight you could read text clearly.

    This phone could play any heavy games available on play store without lags.

    The only cons this phone have it lacks LED notification light and EIS should be made available while recording in 4k mode.

    I will recommend to only buy this phone with 8 GB ram / 128 gb storage.

Your opinion is highly biased by the fact that you own this phone - mine is based on neutral testing and I currently don't own either of the 3 phones.

      You've constantly only *guessed* I'm wrong while I've pinpointed the shortcomings of Realme 5 Pro camera.
      But you don't want to talk about that and use anything as an excuse to disagree.

          XLR8R, 09 Oct 2019You're comparing flagships with midrangers. Even so, Vivo X... moreWhere did I compare flagships with midrange? I only you you that you could buy pretty much all of the best top 5 best camera phones in the world instead of buying so many bad phones.

          You can standby your statement. I've compared them side by side so I know better, and thus I shared. You're not obliged to believe me nor are your personal feelings my headache.

Someone ... moreYes Gcam will work just fine in this phone as Color OS already had the Camera2 API enabled by default (unless Custom ROM is used). There's an app called Camera2 API Probe on the Play Store that can check for it.

You need to ... moreLOL, yes, NFC is "near field" and that's for a reason and that is security, that is, it's meant to be weak to avoid interception from a third party, wifi is all over the place and data can be stolen 10s of meters away without anyone noticing.

                      Between realme 3 pro and 5 Pro, I stand by my statement that they're difficult to distinguish in terms of rear camera but 5 Pro has better nightscape photos.

                      I think you may be having a case of vaseline. The Realme 5 Pro has no competition in its price class.

It's priced ... moreI don't know about that but since I said that the Nokia 8.1 or X7 is not officially available in my country, the price that appears in the online stores already includes import taxes and customs fee. Hence why it is currently even more expensive than an a50s and no I'm not joking.

I wouldn't bother comparing my R5P to a phone that costs almost twice of it but then again, Nokia phones at the same price range tends to underperform in the camera department of its competitors. So if Nokia device needs to be much more expensive in order to bring up its camera quality then it's fine by me since I couldn't afford them anyway.

                                  See this is why I prefer experienced this myself rather than listening to people who can't even bother with small details like this. If you think 5 Pro has worse low light than the 3 Pro it's your opinion but that's pretty much the only (possible) thing that's worse than the 3 Pro. Everything else either remains the same or better for almost the same price. I for once would definitely not complain because this phone already cost 25% less than the likes of A50s for instance and that's a great value already.

                                  Oh and I understand why low light is so important to you because You're from UK where the sun basically only visits there every 6 months.

                                      XLR8R, 05 Oct 2019Dear friend, I use phones primarily for camera. I have u... moreI'm not sure why you would buy phones like those when you can afford decent phones. I wouldn't recommend almost any of the phones you mentioned for any reason.
                                      Especially Samsung A series. Only Samsung devices you should ever spend money on are S8 onwards and Note series.

                                      Almost all of those phones have bad cameras with the same problem: Colour accuracy and low details (or high noise in exchange of details). I don't trust you to be a good judge of cameras.
                                      If you can afford and want to experience good camera phones, go for Pixel 3, One Plus, latest iPhones (for videos), S10 Plus, P30 Pro.
                                      If you can't afford those, go for cheaper Pixel phones (priority) and Huawei P20 Pro.

                                      Regarding Nokia 8.1, if you still own it, install Gcam from Nokia 8.1 Gcam forum on XDA for best camera experience.
                                      You need to compare Nokia 8.1 and 5 Pro camera performance side by side before saying they're similar. I'm very keen about cameras and I know for fact that there's a world worth of difference between them. It's almost annoying you would say 5 Pro even comes close to Nokia 8.1.

                                      As for 3 Pro, it still captures better details while keeping noise low compared to 5 Pro. This should be very easy to confirm if you've any previously taken pics from Realme 3 Pro. Only thing 5 Pro camera beats it in is sharpness after zooming, which I'd gladly trade for details.

                                        AnonD-429807, 06 Oct 2019Dude, there's a night mode available for a reason. Also I w... moreDo you mean Nightsight? It has no real life usage and good luck with colour accuracy. Low light quality doesn't mean night. It means indoors, like in your room, restaurant, office etc. No wants to keep their hand still or stay completely still before cutting a birthday cake.
                                        It can't ever beat Nokia 8.1 OIS quality.

                                        You people appear to equate sharpness of pics with details. What actually matters are details while keeping noise low, colour accuracy and ease in taking better pictures.

                                        I've thoroughly compared Realme 3 Pro, 5 Pro and Nokia 8.1 cameras. In comparison, 5 Pro has lower details and high level of noise. It's only when you've used a good camera phone do you start to notice problems in your bad camera phone.

                                        If you've doubt in what I say, I encourage you to compare their cameras side by side instead of writing a long reply that is completely based on assumption of "I don't know, but I'm sure he is wrong".
                                        Even if you lack basic understanding of cameras, I'm 100% sure you'll spot the obvious difference in details and noise management.
