Realme 3 Pro — Full Specifications, Features & Price in Pakistan

Introduction

Launched on 22 April 2019, the Realme 3 Pro was built to take on Xiaomi's Redmi Note 7 Pro: a Snapdragon 710 chip, a 16MP Sony IMX519 camera with 4K video and 960fps slow motion, a 25MP selfie camera and 20W VOOC 3.0 fast charging — from INR 13,999 in India.

It is discontinued and now a used-market phone, but it remains one of the most capable second-hand buys of its generation thanks to the still-respectable Snapdragon 710 and its camera package. This guide covers the verified specifications and the checks that matter when buying one used in Pakistan.

Design and Build Quality

The Realme 3 Pro's back carried a Le Mans-inspired Speedway gradient with 82 S-shaped curves running parallel through the fingerprint sensor area — a distinctive look in Carbon Gray, Lightning Purple and Nitro Blue. It measured 156.8 x 74.2 x 8.3 mm and weighed 172 grams.

The front was protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 5, a genuine upgrade over the Gorilla Glass 3 on cheaper siblings. Reviewers liked the build quality but flagged the single bottom speaker as weak.

Display Features

The 6.3-inch IPS LCD delivers a full-HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2340 pixels at 19.5:9 (about 409 ppi), with a dewdrop notch, a claimed 90.8% screen-to-body ratio, 400 nits peak brightness and Gorilla Glass 5 protection.

It was one of the better budget displays of 2019 and remains perfectly usable for video and reading. It lacks high refresh rate and AMOLED contrast, but sharpness is not an issue.

Processor and Performance

The Snapdragon 710 is a 10nm octa-core chip (two Kryo 360 Gold cores at 2.2GHz plus six Kryo 360 Silver at 1.7GHz) with an Adreno 616 GPU. Realme added HyperBoost 2.0 with TouchBoost and FrameBoost for steadier gaming frame rates.

This is the fastest chip in the entire Realme 3 family and comfortably the best performer in this slice — noticeably quicker than the Helio P70 in the Realme 3 and the Snapdragon 660 in the 2 Pro. It handles everyday apps well even in 2026, though it is still a 2019 mid-range chip and cannot match modern silicon in heavy games.

RAM and Storage

Sold as 4GB + 64GB and 6GB + 128GB, with a dedicated microSD slot supporting up to 256GB. Storage type is eMMC 5.1 per published spec listings. The 6GB/128GB variant is the better used buy for multitasking headroom.

Camera Features

The rear dual camera pairs a 16MP Sony IMX519 sensor (f/1.7, 1/2.6-inch, Dual Pixel PDAF, 6P lens) — the same sensor family used in 2018 flagships — with a 5MP depth sensor. It records 4K video at 30fps, 1080p at up to 120fps and 720p super slow motion at 960fps (via update), and offers a 64MP Ultra HD mode, Nightscape and Chroma Boost.

The front camera is a 25MP sensor (f/2.0) with HDR — among the highest-resolution selfie cameras of its price class in 2019. Daylight and low-light stills were genuinely good for the segment, which is why the 3 Pro remains a popular used pick for camera-first buyers on a budget.

Battery and Charging

The 4,045mAh battery supports 20W VOOC 3.0 fast charging, with the 20W charger bundled in the box — Realme claimed 50% charge in about 30 minutes. That was a standout feature against rivals still shipping 10W chargers.

Charging goes over micro-USB rather than USB-C, a common criticism. On a 7-year-old used unit the battery will have degraded, so check real endurance and confirm the original VOOC charger is included, since VOOC speeds need compatible hardware.

Software and Updates

The phone launched with Android 9 Pie and ColorOS 6 and was later updated to Android 11 with Realme UI 2.0 — the newest software of any phone in this slice. Official support has still ended, so no recent security patches.

Android 11 keeps it compatible with far more current apps than the Android 8/9 phones in this group, but the lack of ongoing security updates means banking apps may eventually object. It is the safest older-Realme pick for app compatibility.

Connectivity and Additional Features

Dual 4G VoLTE, dual-band Wi-Fi 802.11ac, Bluetooth 5.0, GPS/GLONASS, micro-USB with OTG, FM radio and a 3.5mm jack. No NFC, no 5G. The rear fingerprint sensor and face unlock were both fast for the class.

Variants, Colours and Availability

Variants: 4GB + 64GB and 6GB + 128GB in Carbon Gray, Lightning Purple and Nitro Blue. Also sold in China as the Realme X Lite. Discontinued — in Pakistan it is available only used, with price set by condition and variant.

Price in Pakistan and PTA Information

No verified current Pakistan price is available for the Realme 3 Pro. It launched in India at INR 13,999 (4GB + 64GB) and INR 16,999 (6GB + 128GB) in April 2019 — historical pricing only. The older catalog figure of Rs. 37,500 comes from the stale 1 October 2026 import and must not be treated as current. Used prices vary — confirm the latest figure with Zohaan Mobile Gallery.

PTA approval is per device and IMEI: verify any used unit through the PTA system before paying.

Main Advantages and Limitations

Advantages

• Snapdragon 710 — the fastest chip among all nine phones in this group
• 16MP Sony IMX519 camera with 4K video, 960fps slow motion and 64MP Ultra HD mode
• 25MP front camera — class-leading selfie resolution for 2019
• 20W VOOC 3.0 fast charging with charger in the box
• Updated to Android 11 / Realme UI 2.0 — best app compatibility in this slice
• Gorilla Glass 5 display protection and dedicated microSD slot

Limitations

• Discontinued; no security updates for years
• Battery degradation on 7-year-old units; 4,045mAh was never huge
• Micro-USB port despite fast charging; weak mono speaker
• No NFC, no 5G, no ultra-wide camera (dual camera only)
• Used prices vary widely — verify condition carefully

Who Should Consider This Phone?

The Realme 3 Pro is the best used buy in Realme's 2018–2019 number series for buyers who want the most performance and the best cameras for the least money: the Snapdragon 710, IMX519 camera and Android 11 make it the most future-proof of the group. It suits a budget daily driver, a camera-first backup, or a starter phone for a heavy user.

Skip it if you need a big battery (the 5/5i's 5,000mAh cells last longer), an ultra-wide camera (look at the Realme 5 series), or guaranteed security updates for banking — in which case a newer used model is the safer spend.

Final Verdict

The Realme 3 Pro was the sweet spot of Realme's 2019 line-up, and it still is on the used market: Snapdragon 710 performance, a genuinely good 16MP Sony camera with 4K and slow motion, a 25MP selfie camera, 20W VOOC charging and Android 11. Its age shows only in battery wear, the micro-USB port and the absence of security updates.
