Been using this phone for 5 years and a month never used a screen protector rather than the one that's already on the phone ( that thin protector). Dropped this phone countless times (even from 1.6 meter or 5+ft), nothing happened to the screen, some minor damage has taken by the body which is not visible in a one hand distance. After the android update to 11 everything started to become slow especially if you had some background apps, after the update it took more ram. But I rollbacked to android 10, now everything is as smooth as it was from the beginning, no lag or problems with running background apps everything is really fine. Love the main camera, still doing a great job. The only problem now is the battery, its draining so fast, need to charge it 2 or 3 times for continuous use. That's only due to the ageing of the battery, checked if there was any replacement for the battery, the official realme store showed price of most parts, battery was really cheap in it, but unfortunately there were no stock well ofcourse it's an old phone.
Nevertheless it works like a charm. Probably gonna use it for this year as well

    I've had a Realme 3 Pro since Jul 2019 and it's been a great phone. I am now looking to replace it as a few months ago I dropped and cracked the screen which I had the screen replaced and put a protector on but this screen has now started to chip at the edges. The factory fitted screen & protector was amazing surviving many incidents, it's replacement hasn't. I can't fault the workings of the phone it did/does everything I need it to. The replacement screen has bought me enough time to back everything up in case I need to get a new phone.

      Using it since it launched. Luckily got it in first sale.
      It's been almost 5 years and I'm loving it more. Battery performance gets slightly lower but it's an age and usage factor obviously. Love the phones camera.. Exceptionally Amazing.

            Raj, 03 Jan 2023I am also using realme 3 pro from last 3 years and 4 month ... moreMaybe you could try to free your internal storage around 50% capacity. Just like my R 3 pro. After I did that action. My phone is better. When you got lagging again on your phone, maybe u should try a free your internal storage again around 50%.

                  I am also using realme 3 pro from last 3 years and 4 month and when it was new it was working perfectly but now in present many times i am facing hanging and laging issue in my realme 3 pro when i restored it , it was working perfectly for some days after few days it showing same problem, and in 3 year his power button and volume up key was not working perfectly even i am not using it extremely , his battery performance also decreased upto 40% , when it was new i got approx 8 to 8.30 hours sot but now in same usage i got only maximum 5 to 5.30 hours and some time it give me only 3 to 4 hours when i am using it in sun light
                  So, after 3 year+ usage
                  I will give it 6.5/10
                  It was a good phone wich has a good camera , good charger, good display, but in long term of usage it was not reliable
                  In 3 year 2 to 3 time his display glue come of
                  So over all it was a good phone , with not soo good reliability of hardware
                  Thanks for reading it
                  This was my genuine review of my realme 3 pro 4+64 after 40 month ( 3 year + 4 month ) of usage.

                                  I've been using this phone (4/64) since October,2019. And without the heating issue it's absolutely fantastic. But the rising temperature issue is quite bothering,when you're outside and the brightness is maxed out the phone heats up very fast and very high also while taking photos or just even when the camera app is open, the back camera heats up pretty fast. Except for this and the slightly pushed outside screen it's a superb phone in it's class.
