The midrange phone market has gotten more jam-packed than ever thanks to a slew of releases in the past few months. This is a part of the paradigm shift in regions like India where midrangers are now selling more than ever thanks to improved value for money. One of such midrange devices is the Realme Q3s, which after leaking for weeks has finally been launched in China.

The Realme Q3s is powered by the Snapdragon 778G 5G processor that has become a staple of sorts among midrange offerings and is also found on the likes of the Realme GT Master Edition and the Xiaomi 11 Lite 5G NE. It is a premium chip that promises nearly flagship-level performance.

The ultra-fast processor is complemented by an ultra-smooth display with a refresh rate of 144Hz. The display is a 6.6-inch HDR10 LCD with a 2412×1080 FHD+ resolution. Its peak brightness is 600nits – fairly high for an LCD panel.

But of course, cameras are one of the most important factors any buyer considers, and Realme has not disappointed. The phone comes with a triple camera setup at the rear – a 48MP primary sensor, a 2MP black and white portrait lens, and a 2MP macro lens. The primary supports all of the latest camera tech including AI scene recognition, AI beauty, filters, and AI-enhanced night mode. An on the front, we get a 16MP selfie shooter.

As for the battery, it is sized at a 5000mAh and can be filled up quickly enough with a 30W charger. The phone measures 164.4 mm in length, 75.8 mm in width, 8.5 mm in thickness, and weighs 199g. The phone runs Realme UI 2.0 based on Android 11 out of the box.

It comes in three storage variants namely 6GB+128GB, 8GB+128GB, and 8GB+256GB priced at 1499 Yuan (~$234), 1599 Yuan (~$249), and 1999 Yuan (~$312) respectively. Color options are Nebula (pearl white) and Night Sky Blue (indigo).

The launch event also saw the curtains being lifted on the Realme GT NEO2T and the Realme Watch T1.
