Realme X2 Pro Camera Review

If you are expecting a camera that can easily output some good detailed shots, then you are pretty close. Realme X2 Pro comes with a camera setup of 64MP + 13MP + 8MP + 2MP quad shooter. The back camera can easily take pictures with a high level of details and not to forget the high dynamic range which is extremely good. Day shots come out to be great while night shots are not too bad as well, you get a pretty clear picture due to f1.8 Aperture. The main camera is a little different from the other three, if you want really good pictures then make sure you click it with the main shooter. You also get a wide angle lens which in my opinion is great to have for group photos.

The last camera on the Realme X2 Pro is the super zoomed in the lens, to be honest, which I am not a fan of but is great to have anyways. Camera software gets additional features such as the pro mode in which one can adjust various options according to their needs. There are plenty of in build filters to choose from. Pictures come sharp & crips with great dynamic range. Realme X2 Pro camera is also capable of shooting some great videos. One can easily get confused with the footage being shot with a proper camera instead. Realme X2 Pro can record videos up to 4K resolution plus you also get a feature to record super slow motion video, again added benefit.

Pictures come out with really good details in good lighting condition. However, Realme X2 Pro outputs soft images when taken in low light. The front camera can record videos too with plenty of details & accuracy in good lighting condition.
