Design and Display
Starting with the design, both the Realme X3 and X3 SuperZoom feature a curved-glass back design and comes in two color options: Arctic White and Glacier Blue. Towards the front, the two phones share the same 6.6-inch IPS LCD display with an FHD+ resolution. The panel offers a 90.5% screen-to-body ratio and a 120Hz refresh rate — something that is increasingly been seen across many newer devices. Furthermore, to keep the display protected, there is Corning’s Gorilla Glass 5 protection on top.
Performance
Under the hood, Realme X3 and X3 SuperZoom, both run on the Snapdragon 855+ chipset. The Snapdragon 855+ is an octa-core processor, clocked at 2.96GHz, and has the Adreno 640 GPU for various graphics processing needs. Assisting the processor is 6GB / 8GB of RAM and 128GB of onboard storage on the vanilla Realme X3, and 8GB / 12GB RAM and 256GB storage on the X3 SuperZoom. To power the internals, there is a 4200mAh battery on both devices with support for 30W Dart Flash Charge. Besides, the two smartphones also come with dual 4G VoLTE, Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, and Bluetooth 5.0, for connectivity, along with support for Dolby Atmos and Hi-Res Audio. On the software front, the X3 series runs on realmeUI based on Android 10.
Camera
Similar to how both the X3 and X3 SuperZoom share a lot of the essential specifications, the two also share some similarities with regards to the camera. To begin with, they have the same quad-camera setup on the rear, with a 64MP (f/1.8) Samsung GW1 primary sensor, an 8MP (f/2.3) ultra-wide sensor with 119° FoV, and a 2MP (f/2.4) macro lens. However, when it comes to the fourth lens, the two take a different approach altogether. While the regular X3 has a 12MP (f/2.5) telephoto lens, the X3 SuperZoom, as its name suggests, comes with an 8MP (f/3.4) periscope lens with 5x optical zoom and OIS. Moving to the front, the two phones sport a dual front-facing camera and share the same 8MP (f/2.2) ultra-wide-angle sensor. While the second sensor happens to be a 16MP (f/2.0) Sony IMX 471 on the vanilla X3 and a 32MP (f/2.5) Sony IMX 616 on the SuperZoom model.
