The OnePlus Nord 3 5G (review) is an all-rounder that excels in almost every department. However, when it comes to determining the best camera phone in its segment, we need to conduct a thorough comparison. In this matchup, we will put the OnePlus Nord 3 5G against one of its closest competitors, the Realme 11 Pro+ (review). Notably, the Realme 11 Pro+ boasts an impressive 200MP sensor, making it a standout contender in the market. Let’s dive into the details and see how these two devices stack up against each other in terms of camera performance.
OnePlus Nord 3 5G vs Realme 11 Pro+ camera specifications
| OnePlus Nord 3 5G | Realme 11 Pro + |
| 50MP Sony IMX890 primary camera with OIS | 200MP Samsung ISOCELL HP3 SuperZoom primary camera with OIS |
| 8MP Sony IMX355 ultra-wide camera, 112-degree FoV | 8MP ultra-wide camera, 112-degree FoV |
| 2MP macro camera | 2MP macro camera |
| 16MP front camera | 32MP front camera |
Daylight
Starting with the main camera, the 50MP unit on OnePlus Nord 3 5G captures images with boosted colours and a yellow tint. The 200MP primary camera on the Realme 11 Pro+, in contrast, provides closer-to-reality colours. This is evident from the colours of the sky in the images attached above. Be that as it may, images shot by OnePlus Nord 3 5G appear more detailed and pleasing to the eye. However, for the colours, the round goes to the Realme 11 Pro+.
Winner: Realme 11 Pro+
Ultra-wide
For ultra-wide shots, both OnePlus Nord 3 5G and Realme 11 Pro+ utilise an 8MP resolution lens with a 112-degree field of view (FoV). In this case, Realme provides images with boosted colours, but they also appear soft with less detail and sharpness. The Nord 3 5G, on the other hand, delivers better results with enough detail and sharpness. The colours on the OnePlus smartphone also look well saturated compared to the Realme 11 Pro+.
Winner: OnePlus Nord 3 5G
Selfies
When it comes to the front camera, the OnePlus Nord 3 5G excels in terms of skin tone and colour accuracy. While the colours may appear oversaturated, they do not look soft or washed out like the Realme 11 Pro+. However, the Realme smartphone has an advantage in capturing more facial details, which is noticeable in the images (above). This could be attributed to the 11 Pro+’ larger sensor size of 32MP instead of 16MP. Nevertheless, the dynamic range in both selfies is more or less the same.
Winner: Tie
Portrait
For portrait shots, both the OnePlus Nord 3 5G and Realme 11 Pro+ utilise computational techniques to separate the subject from the background. The results are equally impressive on both smartphones, although there may be some minor cropping around the edges. The bokeh effect appears natural on both devices. However, portrait shots taken with the OnePlus smartphone are more visually pleasing due to superior skin tones.
Winner: OnePlus Nord 3 5G
Low light
In low-light conditions, the image quality of the OnePlus Nord 3 5G stood out to me. It effectively highlighted the details, achieving better exposure compared to the Realme 11 Pro+, albeit with some noticeable noise.
Even with the night mode enabled, the OnePlus smartphone continued to deliver impressive results with good exposure and vibrant colours. However, some noise was still visible in the images. The Realme smartphone, in contrast, captures images with less noise, but it tends to lose finer details due to excessive smoothing. As a result, the round goes to the OnePlus Nord 3 5G.
Winner: OnePlus Nord 3 5G
Verdict
- The OnePlus Nord 3 5G emerges as the clear winner with its ultra-wide camera, portrait mode, and night shots, which give it an edge over the competition. The handset delivers superior results with ample details and accurate colour reproduction compared to the Realme 11 Pro+.
- However, when you look at the daylight shots, the OnePlus Nord 3 5G’s 50MP sensor falls short in terms of capturing intricate details, at least in daylight, when compared to the Realme smartphone’s 200MP camera.
- Both smartphones fall short in delivering all-around satisfactory selfies. While the OnePlus smartphone provides better skin tones, the Realme 11 Pro+ offers improved facial detailing.
in short, if you prioritise detailed shots over colour accuracy, the Realme 11 Pro+ should be the better choice for you. However, if you value overall colour accuracy and other factors, the OnePlus Nord 3 5G could be the more suitable option.
