Launched in February 2025, the Realme P3 Pro built on the P2 Pro with a bigger battery, stronger dust and water protection and an eye-catching glow-in-the-dark Nebula Glow colour option. It targeted the same buyers as the Poco X7, Motorola Edge 50 Fusion and Vivo T3, offering a mix of durability and endurance at a mid-range price.
The 6.83-inch quad-curved AMOLED display has a 1.5K resolution and 120Hz refresh rate, making it one of the sharpest screens in its segment. The Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 chipset is a modest upgrade over its predecessor, handling everyday use and mid-level gaming well, helped by a large vapour chamber. The IP66, IP68 and IP69 ratings were unusual at this price and meant the phone could survive high-pressure water jets.
The 50 MP Sony IMX896 main camera with OIS is the only meaningful rear lens, as the second sensor is a 2 MP depth unit and there is no ultrawide. That is a step back from the P2 Pro for photography flexibility. The 6,000 mAh battery with 80W charging easily lasts two days of moderate use. Buyers wanting an ultrawide or better gaming performance would find the Poco X7 Pro a stronger alternative.
