Attention photography and social media enthusiasts! Prepare for the upcoming launch on August 24th, as realme introduces its newest mid-range smartphone, the realme 11 Pro+ 5G and the realme 11 Pro 5G series.

Introducing the realme 11 Pro+ 5G, boasting a cutting-edge 200 MP OIS SuperZoom Camera. This smartphone enters the mid-range arena as a formidable contender, showcasing a yet another 200-megapixel rear camera.

VP Tech recently acquired the Oasis Green variant of this model, exploring its camera prowess and additional features firsthand. Now, let’s promptly delve into VP Tech’s unboxing and initial impressions, with more comprehensive #VPTechReviews of the #realme11ProPlus5G coming out on the 24th.

The Unboxing

Housed within the conventional yellow realme box, this rendition incorporates black accents, preserving its sleek design. The front prominently showcases the brand and model, while the sides exhibit the branding and model name. The back highlights vital specs, features, and regulatory particulars.

Moreover, as you open the box, a warm message “Hey, Welcome to the realme family” appears on a mini phablet-like box, reflecting realme’s considerate approach. Inside this mini phablet-like box, you’ll discover the SIM ejector, Quick Guide, warranty documents, and a complimentary Jellycase. Further unwrapping reveals the realme 11 Pro+ 5G model, covered by the eco-plastic. Positioned thoughtfully at the base are the USB-A to USB-C cable and the 100W SuperVOOC charging adapter.

Built and Aesthetic

Lately, a trend emerges: mid-range phones prioritize premium aesthetics. realme 11 Pro+ 5G perfectly embodies this shift. Notably, it’s a result of collaboration with Matteo Menotto, former Gucci Prints Designer and Bulgari’s Head of Design for Prints. This collaboration results in a back panel radiating sophistication, a truly premium appearance. Departing from standard polycarbonate and glass, this model adopts the Premium Vegan Leather Design.

Featuring calming neutral tones, we obtained the Oasis Green variant exuding a masculine aura; the alternative is Sunrise Beige. Positioned at the upper center, the rear camera rests within a substantial circular module housing triple camera sensors and an LED flash. The realme 11 Pro+ 5G boasts the engraving “200MP OIS Camera.” Additionally, on the lower left side of the phone, you’ll find the realme logo elegantly etched in a silvery metallic texture.

Turning to the front, the device showcases a 6.7-inch AMOLED display, featuring the 120Hz Curved Vision Display. This complements the 2412*1080 FHD+ resolution. Bolstering user experience, the 120Hz refresh rate optimizes navigation. Additionally, the integration includes a Touch Sampling Rate of 360Hz, reaching an instantaneous 1260Hz Touch Sampling Rate. Brightness is adjustable up to 20,000 levels.

Side Keys and Port

Slim and nearly symmetrical bezels grace the panel sides; the chin bezel is slightly thicker, resembling recent Honor 90 5G and OPPO Reno 10 Pro+ 5G releases.

At the top, a secondary speaker and an ultra-slim microphone find their place. Meanwhile, at the bottom, a pinhole offers access to the dual nano SIM tray and USB-C reversible port, accompanied by a speaker grille. The left side remains bare, while the volume rocker and power button sit on the right.

200 Megapixels OIS SuperZoom Camera

Emphasizing its 200MP rear camera, realme showcases flagship capabilities including up to 4x lossless zoom. This is facilitated by the 200MP f/1.69 lens, utilizing Samsung’s ISOCELL HP3 sensor, boasting a substantial 1/1.4-inch sensor size, PDAF focus, and optical image stabilization. The triple camera configuration includes an 8MP Ultra-Wide Angle Camera and a 2MP Macro Camera.

Enhanced by OIS (Optical Image Stabilization), the camera incorporates a 3-degree EDR OIS Algorithm to mitigate shake-induced blurring.

Among its camera capabilities are Auto-zoom, Street Photography Mode, Moon Mode, Starry Mode Pro, Super NightScape, Pano, Professional Mode, Portrait Mode, HDR, AI Scene Recognition, AI Beauty, Filters, Text Scanner, Portrait Distortion Correction, One Take, and Super Group Portrait.
