Empowering Young Users with Next-gen imaging through the Flagship Periscope Telephoto Lens
realme’s research indicates a preference among young users for telephoto lenses with 3X zoom or more, rather than just 2X. To enable high zoom levels in slim phones, a periscope telephoto is the sole viable choice. Nonetheless, this technology presents technical challenges and high costs, usually reserved for flagship phones. realme is bridging this gap by making flagship-exclusive periscope telephoto technology available to a wider audience of young users.
realme has developed a proprietary periscope telephoto formula to ensure top-quality imaging under various conditions, first introduced in the realme GT5 Pro launched in November 2023. This formula has positioned the realme GT5’s telephoto performance at the forefront of the industry. The upcoming realme 12 Pro Series will adopt the same approach, integrating a leading sensor size, a high-performance platform, and an advanced algorithm to achieve superior imaging performance.
The Next-gen Telephoto: Best Periscope Telephoto Lens In The Segment
realme 12 Pro Series enhances night shot clarity and stability while minimizing flare and ghosting. It achieves this with a unique combination of prism tilt OIS, Sub-Wavelength Structure Coating, and a Wave Pattern Lens Shade, these technologies also used in the GT5 Pro. It features a 3X Portrait Mode with a 71mm golden portrait focal length, creating a naturally shallow depth of field perfect for portraits. Additionally, the realme 12 Pro Series leads its class in telephoto capabilities, offering up to 120X digital zoom.

Thanks to its larger aperture and light intake, the realme 12 Pro Series’ telephoto lens is nearly three times more light-sensitive than that of the iPhone 15 Pro.
The Next-gen Lossless Zoom: Flagship Full-Focal-Length Lossless Zoom Imaging Capability
realme 12 Pro Series’ main camera features Sony IMX890 OIS, which enhances night-time photography. This camera has a 1/1.56” large sensor, a 24mm equivalent focal length, and a wide f/1.8 Aperture, making it well-suited for nighttime photography. With OIS support, it excels in providing stable video recording and optimizing the success rate of photos. Additionally, realme 12 Pro Series features a periscope telephoto and ultra wide-angle camera. It offers lossless zoom at 0.6x, 1x, 2x, 3x, 6x, providing a full-focal-length lossless zoom photographic experience comparable to that of a flagship device.
The Next-gen Algorithm: Exclusive Customization of The MasterShot Algorithm
