[Update: More updates] Realme 8 & 8 Pro 108MP camera continues to improve; Realme 8 bags new camera-centric update

New updates are being added at the bottom of this story…….

Original story (published on April 27, 2021) follows:

Realme has made it a habit to refresh the existing series of devices every 6-8 months. The most recent addition is the camera-centric Realme 8 series.

The brand heavily advertised the new 108MP Samsung HM2 camera sensor but it comes at the cost of stereo speakers and reduced charging speeds on Realme 8 Pro

Realme 8 on the other hand was a real upgrade that houses the 108MP camera sensor as well as an AMOLED panel.

But irrespective of some loopholes, the Realme 8 series enjoys a great response from photography enthusiasts.

Designing a device and marketing it solely on its camera configuration would also require Realme to equally emphasize improving camera quality which usually degrades as devices age.

But the company made sure they don’t abandon the device after its launch and with continuous feedback from the users, the brand came up with some optimizations and a lot of them are in pipeline.

Here’s a summary of everything that has been added, improved, or fixed through the latest and upcoming OTAs for Realme 8 Pro:

– Fixing skin tone performance in low color temperature.

– Optimizing color performance with sunset scenes.

– Fixing focus issue while changing focus point from close up subject to further subject.

– Optimizing UIS Max performance.

– Fixing overexposure issue with 3X/5X/10X zoom scenes.

And here’s a summary of what’s in store for the standard Realme 8.

– Fixing color issue with yellow tone cloths.

– Fixing exposure issue with 64M mode.

– Fixing overexposure issue while taking photos with flash.

– Optimizing clarity of the main camera.

Realme 8 Pro also features some unique features like the Starry time-lapse and tilt-shift time-lapse feature that takes photography to the next level.

Realme 8 has recently bagged an update that’s mostly centric to the camera. Being a new device, the update frequency is quite high as well.

The April update bears the UI Version: RMX3085_11.A.10 and brings the following optimizations.

Even with a highly capable camera like this, it is important for smartphone companies to tune them well.

We hope to see more extensive development for not only the devices on top of the list but also the ones who have been there for quite some time.
