Editorial report

Realme Q3s 6 GB / 128 GB / China technical sheet

The Realme Q3s suits people looking for a smooth display and capable connectivity, with one important limitation for anyone who relies on Google Services: the phone does not include them. This version pairs 6 GB of RAM with 128 GB of storage; the model is also sold with 8 GB of RAM and either 128 GB or 256 GB of storage.

Its 6.6″ display has a 144 Hz refresh rate, among the highest on phones of its time, and 401 ppi density, higher than on most. Overall performance is typical, although its AnTuTu result of 584,400 is better than that of most phones launched around the same time. Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.2 and dual-SIM support are also on board; connectivity overall is better than on most phones of its time.

The 48 MP main camera records 4K video at 30 fps. The camera and battery are typical for the period: the battery has a capacity of 5,000 mAh and supports 30 W charging. Overall, the Realme Q3s is typical of phones from its time, with a NeoScore of 5.6. It is a sensible fit for people who prioritize the display and connections, provided the lack of Google Services is not a deal-breaker.
