But having said that, let's see what are the strengths and weaknesses of the realme smartphone.
Realme 8 Pro is reviewed by DxOmark: how did the cameras of the company's latest smartphone behave? Let's see it together
Recall that realme 8 Pro has become the the brand's first smartphone with a 108-megapixel camera. In addition, it is equipped with an ultra wide-angle module with a resolution of 8 megapixels and a pair of 2 megapixel sensors for portrait and macro photography. Samsung Galaxy S21 + and Redmi Note 10 Pro were chosen as the competitors of the comparison by DxoMark.
After a thorough examination of the footage, the experts identified several strengths of the realme 8 Pro camera:
- often accurate outdoor and indoor exposure
- wide backlit dynamic range
- high detail in bright to moderate light conditions
- fast and accurate autofocus
- not a bad estimate of depth in portrait mode
- minimal video noise when shooting in good lighting
- neutral white balance for both indoor and outdoor video recording
- good color reproduction in videos when shooting outdoors
However, there were also many shortages:
- sometimes the color of the skin does not correspond to reality
- in low light, photos can go a long way in warm colors.
- strong light noise in low-light photographs
- night photos look too dark and have insufficient dynamic range
- details are greatly reduced when zoom is used
- the video comes out with too much contrast and insufficient dynamic range
- the autofocus “jumps” during video shooting
- loss of fine detail in the video
- inaccurate low-light video colors
Taking into account all the pros and cons, the realme 8 Pro camera received a final score of 103 points, the same as POCO X3NFC e Apple iPhone SE (2020). According to employees of DxOMark, the smartphone shoots well for the price range of around 250 €, but it clearly is inferior to the leader of this class: Pixel 4a.
