Is there any possible 5pro would reduce price when xt launch? Plan to take 5pro this week or maybe should wait for next week.
For xt, I watch review say even thought the camera is 64mp, 48mp camera from 5pro is better.

Edit: btw, this phone got volte or not?
*
Not sure if price will be reduce but for sure XT will be a bit expensive.

Here is the comparison between XT and 5 Pro:

S amoled screen and on-screen fingerprint is really tempting but I dunno it's worth or not to pay 200-300 more for that since the camera is weak

Its all up to you and see what concerns you the most.

For me, good camera (especially with Sony IMX586 sensor) and also I don't like the idea of potential screen burn in using AMOLED screen (experienced it before), although AMOLED does save battery life and it is brighter than IPS LCD.

Also XT from what I read have a slightly larger screen than 5Pro.

I tried play around with the phone, why the phone seems slow?
I mean you try open the apps, scroll the apps, it doesn't feel fast like Mi9T.
*
The Mi9T processor (SD730) is faster than Realme 5 Pro (SD712)

Try compare it to Realme X2 (SD730G) which is coming maybe December but I think that unit will beat Mi9T especially in gaming.

I have not tried the GCAM on my phone. Any brave Realme 5 Pro owners willing to give it a try?

XT should be SD712 only. SD730G only releasing Dec.

Yes its a mistake, got confused with X2 which is the unit that comes with SD730G.

Realme 5 Pro update:

So far update went well.

Dark Mode is nice added feature but won't save battery for LCD screen like on Realme 5 and Pro.

Not realme 5 owner, but have a question about oppo a9 2020. No thread or forum for it yet lol. So here the question goes.
Does anybody here have problem of phone getting laggy if using earphones to listen to music? No problem when listening with speaker.
Example of problem registering touch and changing the playing song when scrolling song list. Regular apps become slightly less responsive as well while doing this.
I figure i should ask here since a9 2020 uses same chipset and same mother company as realme 5.

What did you listen to? MP3 stored locally? Streaming music?

QUOTE(renyyz @ Oct 31 2019, 11:38 PM)
I'm actually quite confused with this quad camera. This phone equip with 48mp main, 8mp wide, 2mp portrait and 2mp macro. So

1. When I open the camera, got ultra 48mp setting at the left. So which camera actually it's use if I didn't select ultra 48mp?
By default it use 48mp sensor but when capture photo the image will be going through a process called pixel binning, which means photo you end up will be 12mp. Process itself is to help improve photo quality.

You can capture 48mp photo but at the expense of file size bigger and probably image not as good as 12mp.

QUOTE(renyyz @ Oct 31 2019, 11:38 PM)
2. When I taking video, which camera it's use?
48mp lens but when switch to ultra wide video, it use the wide angle lens (the one with the yellow circle around it).

QUOTE(renyyz @ Oct 31 2019, 11:38 PM)
3. Portrait mode is a pic with blur background rite. So it's only use 2mp camera? Why can't it's use 48mp camera with this function since my mi5s single camera can have this function.
No. Potrait still use 48mp camera but in portrait mode it uses additional lens to sense depth (Time of Flight lens) so it can give you better blur effect. That 2mp sensor isn't really a camera to produce image.

QUOTE(renyyz @ Oct 31 2019, 11:38 PM)
4. I still don't know what can macro camera do compare to main camera.
Macro take photos close up (4cm) but the quality of photo it produce is not great and some say you might as well use the 48mp lens and zoom in.

QUOTE(renyyz @ Oct 31 2019, 11:38 PM)
Well, for wide camera, I can feel the difference so no question about that. This is actually my 1st phone with multiple camera so at least I wanna know it's worth or not I pay for that camera.
*
That depends how you going to use that phone as a camera. Just go out, take photos, and see if the end result makes you happy or not. Make sure you learn enough about the camera features and its limitation.

Yep tried that as well. Same thing. Seems like it happens if i have headphones on. Doesnt matter if music is playing or not 🤣

What if you try different headphones? Did you try using bluetooth headphones?

I just tested with wired headphones, did a bit of scrolling, browsing. I don't hear any laggy sound or stutter. MP3 plays nicely.

Dont have any bluetooth headphones so no dice there. Tried in the box earphones, a jvc xx and samsung akg note 9s, same laggyness in the ui. The sound plays perfectly though so really no idea whats going on. Even turned on high performance mode but still the same.

Maybe try factory reset? Just make sure to back up first.

Which would u choose n why if 3Pro(4/64) is slightly more expensive(say rm50) than Realme5 3/64 @rm599?

This is a tricky decision.

Realme Pro 3 isn't bad with its higher RAM (4GB), better camera (16mp), newer CPU (SD710).

But Realme 5 has bigger battery (5000mAh), bigger screen (6.5"), 4 cameras.

I would say, for me, 3 Pro because I want more RAM and better camera.
