Realme 13 Pro series’ is here and its claim to fame is photography. The brand is also betting big on AI image processing with its new Realme 13 Pro and Realme 13 Pro+. The new devices launch with Realme’s Hyperimage+ AI photography architecture combining flagship optics, on-device AI imaging algorithms, and cloud-based AI image editing features like Smart Removal, Group Photo Enhancement, and Audio Zoom.
On the hardware front, Realme 13 Pro+ is the first phone to launch with Sony’s LYT-701 sensor on its 50MP main cam (24mm). There’s another first with the 3x telephoto lens featuring a Sony LYT-600 sensor (1/2-inch) with 50MP resolution and 73mm focal length. Both rear shooters feature OIS and are joined by an 8MP ultrawide lens (16mm).
