I am buying a smartphone for watching IPTV, You tube, video, internet,
I am in a dilemma between
Realme X3 SZ with LCD € 350 and
Relme 7 pro with SuperAmoled € 300
in Croatia, the prices are at a discount. Which is better for my priorities.
Thanks.

Yes , only Social media so far , banking appsits not available , I dont know if any UI does all Apps in dual mode. Samsung One UI has even less support , MIUI / POCO also has social media apps. If any UI gives full support , let me know , as I myself will go with that brand.

Not possible to share here as only comments allowed , but its recognises dual apps for Facebook , Messanger , Instagram , whatsapp , all those I have posted.
So almost all major social media apps covered.
I just love 5x periscope daylight shots of this device ( Its equal to 3.8-4x on 6 Pro , as its hybrid zoom of 2x module ). Detailed & Literally No noise - MY OBSERVATION - though 5x focusing works only on nearby 5x objects , if you aim across street , or at building windows of nearby tower , or say structure on pillar etc. if you aim across a few 100 meters ie landscape or a distant building across a complex etc. you might feel like its a 2x zoom shot ie lack of clarity , so 5x is meant only for within 100 meters or so, 2x of Realme 6 Pro is also Excellent with barely any noise even better than x50Pro .
Auto Night Mode of GCAM is bad , & so is of Stock Camera. Thats the main difference between this and 6 Pro.
GCAM nightscape is very good across both x3SZ & 6 Pro with literally equal amount of data , but Night Mode of 6 Pro is just excellent in front of one on x3SZ.
5x Periscope is not meant for Nighttime shots..

What Samy is doing is Roasting X3SZ.
The Main difference between iPhone 12 pro max will be just the heavy dose of noise in daylight & the lack of Focus in photos out of 5x zoom ( out of 10 only 4 are properly focussed , an especially if its long range subject , maybe its a basic OIS system.)
Regarding Nighttime , yes there is going to be quite some difference. And that's down to what Realme wants to give us. Afterall you are not spending US$ 1000 /- like on 12 pro max. Try GCAM Port its quite an improvement , & yes other phones like Realme 6 Pro , POCO X2 ( GCAM Port only ) has better nighttime capability , including better colours & contrast . But X3SZ Night Mode ( Not Auto mode ) is still not bad , the sharpness is quite good , just that there are better out there in that price range. ( I have heard even Realme 7 Pro night mode is better then X3SZ ) , so Realme could improve if they want in future.

@anonymous - please let me know 3rd party call recorder apps supported , i.e. actually recording there are apps but when you record there is no sound from one end , or other person not able to listen to voice call etc. issues crop up.
cube ACR is working good ( After latest update , earlier I had to use another apps ) for now but with lots of ambient sound , but not as stable as realme stock UI recorder ( That is ages ahead & pretty clear ) , sometimes on restarts it forgets it has to record I have to open app to remind it ;-) And this problem you face after Android 9 as google does not support 3rd party call recording. Thats why several members on Realme community are demanding realme dialer not google.

Samy, 25 Dec 2020I have been using this for 8 days... Its just not what i wanted... My friend has iphone 12 pro... moreIt's just stupid to compare a high end mid-range to a FLAGSHIP. I think you're just trolling

Gingerman - As per my knowledge Facebook , Messange , Insta , Whatsapp , Twitter etc. It has quite lot of social & shopping apps on Dual Mode which is a good thing. ( Feature common in all Realme UI Phones. )
I find Realme UI is quite good & close to stock android , its actually close to Sonys Xperia UI with Oppo / Oxygen UI shortcuts , Icons & Gesures. I dont know why people critise Realme UI.
GCAM quality is quite good for Primary camera. 5x zoom has not improved much on GCAM ( As its already quite Good by default ) , Night Mode also improves . My only gripes are - No 4K30fps on 5x Telephoto & default average camera in night ( GCAM improves it ).
5x videos are also bit better on GCAM.

Got this for RM1200 ~ 299$ US dollar.
Great phone. Snappy. Love the 120hz and haptic.
Good performance. Average SOT around 7 hours

Hi, any user here can confirm how many applications can this model activate dual app? Mean say whatsapps, user can activate second whataspps on the same phone. Like most of the Xiaomi phones can activate all applications for dual apps. Oppo phones can only activate any 3 at the same time. So this Realme X3 superzoom can do how many ?

Night mode of X3SZ has more details then Realme 6 Pro (Main Subject only and marginal ), but overall contrast is bit off.
Tripod mode is excellent in both with 6 pro taking slight lead (bit sharper), most of the colour loss is recovered in X3SZ, overall camera of s3sz is not bad package if u combine 720p 960fps slomo, 4k60fps.etc. But the primary camera has noise even in videos and daylight, please let me know if GCAM is good on X3SZ.

5x zoom video is something which you have to carefully pan and move , if you move slowly then only usable 5x video possible , on tripod in midrange you get the best 5x zoom videos for midrange 1080p 30fps. For casual walking footage is not usable.
Thanks to good quality 5x 8MP Shots - Zoom with less noise possible up to 10x which is quite good for a MidRange. ( Only for Daylight , This Sensor not meant for NIght Photography & anyway this is not Huawei P30 or P40 )
My Only gripe is the Primary Camera. I Expect price of this Models to Drop considering Market is on verge of Tsunami with 5G.

My Thought on Realme X3 SZ -
1. Excellent Daylight 5x Telephoto Camera ( Its actually 4.6x ) - Noise is kept minimum , & detailing is good - A GalaxyCore 8Mp. Sensor - Its nowhere near Huawei P30 or other 5x flagship telephotos but for Midrange. Good Daylight selfie cams. Both sensors.
2. Stock Google Apps for Phone , Messanger , Files etc. ( Only for Google Purist )
3. Good Flagship Grade daylight photos & good night time photos ( In front of 7 pro , POCO X3 & few others) , UWide is also Good but 8Mp Resolution is bummer.
4. Snapdragon 855+ , 256GB can now be had cheap with 8GB Ram. Performance is Excellent.
5. A Capable 120 Hz Display with 120 Hz Touch Sampling ( Display is Dim , but visible in sunlight on Max Brightness )
6. 4K 30 / 60 FPS EIS Videos ( Its marginal improvement over 1080p 60FPS & less Sharp , but that's still a Pro with HDR Video setting )
Cons -
1. Daylight Photos on Full view look Excellent , but zoom in 50% & noise engulfs dark areas , this is in 16Mp , 64Mp is more noisier . (5x will give lost details , but it is only part of the frame , 2x zoom would have been better ) , other Realmes have better 16/64Mp Performance.
2. No CA Support ( All Realmes incl X50 Pro , Oppo , Vivo is the real premium )
3. Google Dialer means No (0%) Call Recording Support ( Incl. No 3rd Party Apps Support )
4. 5x Video is good only in Tripod ( There also Jitters/ Shake ) , on the move / Street its Forgettable, so in Real life 5xVideos you wont shoot. So only Main Cam , & UWide have Proper VIdeo support , incl. selfies.
5. No OLED.
6. No MicroSD Card Slot
7. No 3.5MM. Headphone Jack.
8. Glitchy OS , Lags sometimes. ( Only sometimes but its there )
9. Average Nighttime Photos with Auto Mode having no details , & Night Mode ( 5 Sec. wait per photo ) is saving grace having sharper images with average contrast , average colours , oversharpening gives rise to artifacts all around. ( All 4 lens range from Poor to average in night ).

@ Vicky - If u want CA Bands , in 21k i would suggest Motorola Moto G 5G as it has 20 Bands 4G Full CA Support & 11 Bands full 5g Support , I doubt even in 5g or 4G in Realme you will get CA. CA Provides 1.5 - 2x speeds within City Limits ( Only Big Metros )& you can hotspot properly to 2 Devices , without CA only 1 Device can properly stream.
