Our Take
Both phones come with almost similar specifications. Here iQOO 3 comes with a larger battery with a 55W fast charging support, while X50 Pro comes with a smaller battery but offers a 65W SuperDart flash charger. Both come with the latest processors and a quad rear camera set up. But Realme offers a dual selfie camera that includes a 32MP sensor and an 8MP sensor whereas iQOO comes with a 16MP selfie camera. Moreover, both the 5G phones come with similar pricing. But here comes the twist, iQOO 3 has a 4G variant also with a much lower price. iQoo is giving great gaming options and better touch display too. Out pick is definitely the iQoo 3 over the Realme X50 pro.
