    Post USB OTG for Realme 3 PRO

    I think first we need to define which micro USB type is considered 'normal' here. AFAIK, the one should be called 'normal' is the non-reversible one. And all Realme 3 Pro variants use this non-reversible type. But since OP insist that his Realme 3 Pro's USB port is different than his 'normal'...

    Post Time to take picture (camera launch speed)

    Just a little over 1 second. And that 1 second is actually the camera app's opening animation, so basically you can hit that Shutter button almost instantly as it appears. Its that fast. Haven't tried burst mode (if there's any), but for Portrait mode, there's slight delay when the phone is...

    Post Light use endurance

    Just quick review: Battery goes from 100 to 95 in about 1 hour. Only browsing & writing some posts on Xda using Edge, Night Shield on, brightness around 7%. No games, no music, no Bluetooth, GPS off, using 4G mobile data only.

    Post WiFi strength, range, and throughput

    I don't think I have problems with Wifi, but I find the Realme 3 Pro's WiFi Tethering (Personal Hotspot) is a bit odd. On Windows, I need to turn off the WiFi, and turn it back on so I can connect to R3Pro's tethering. Also, the connecting process is few seconds slower than usual. After it is...

    Post Multitasking/RAM

    Knowing that, now I'm thinking to sell my 4gb R3Pro and upgrade to the 6gb version. Or waiting for Realme X, hoping it will be released in my country.

    Post google cam

    Open stock camera app > tap Setting icon at top-right corner > scroll to bottom of the options to find toggle to turn off watermark. To upload image, don't use Quick Reply, but tap the 'Go Advanced' button. In the Advanced Mode, scroll down past the text box and you will find more options...

    Post Heat

    Went to vacation spot this morning and took some videos (1080p 60fps if that would make any difference), and I notice the phone gets quite warm beyond my expectation. Not exactly hot but more than warm. Didn't install Asphalt 8 yet, but I played Line's BT21 which I think more resource hungry...

    Post Multitasking/RAM

    Me too. 4gigs ram version here, and around 1gb free ram available most of the time. Now I'm really curious about you guys who get the 6 gigs version. Do you get 3gb free ram?

    Post Clarity/resolution

    Switching from 2015 Zenfone 2 which has only 720p and almost half ppi count, to my eyes Realme's screen is as sharp as it can get. Haven't found any fault with the display, and I hope it stays that way.

    Post OEM skin/software

    This!!! And the inconsistent placement of system's notice in the notch area (clock, signal strength, & network speed at the left; while battery, location, screen rotate, & alarm is at the right side) also disturbs me. They should put all system notice at the right, and apps notification on the...

    Post Photo quality

    I'd say Realme's camera is satisfactory enough for outdoor landscape scenes and food, but when I tried to snap an A4 brochure from around 50cm distance & around 45-55degrees from the paper's face, the text in the resulting photo is smudged and hard to read. That's literally my first photo after...

    Post Charging speed

    Same here. If I want to go out and the battery is around 40%, I just plug the charger for a while. By the time I'm ready to go 15-20 minutes later, it's already around 70%. Thats more than enough juice for 9to5 office hours.

    Post Minimum brightness

    Minimum brightness is great, but the problem lies in the slider. To my eyes, the brightness drops too rapidly in the 20% part of the left side, while there's only small change in brightness if you go from 25% to 75%.

    Post "Look" of the device (aesthetics)

    I don't really understand how one should consider a phone's design is 'good', while the trend is going nowhere; same brick design from all manufacturers. I can say other things regarding its design's functionality, though. First of all, I kinda made an oath that I won't buy any phone with a...

    Post Software (ease of use, features, etc)

    Coming from a 4 years Zenfone 2 user, I fell like evolving backwards with R3Pro feature-wise. Yes, Realme's Camera app is simple and easy to understand, and will certainly please most user. But I'm the type who appreciates more features and settings. Like many 'generic' phones today, in R3Pro...
