As far as cameras are concerned, the Realme 3 Pro flaunts a 16MP+5MP dual-lens camera setup. The camera can record 4k videos and can also shoot super slow motion videos at staggering 960 fps. The primary camera works on a Sony IMX519 sensor with F/1.7 aperture lens. The same sensor powers the camera on the OnePlus 6T.
