New Delhi, India – December 22, 2025 – realme, the most popular smartphone brand among Indian youth is set to shake up the smartphone imaging landscape with the highly anticipated realme 16 Pro Series, led by the realme 16 Pro+. Centered around the concept of “200MP Portrait Master,” the series brings flagship-level photography experiences to more users, empowering every user to “Snap Your Vibe at Every Zoom.” With industry-leading imaging hardware and innovative algorithms, the realme 16 Pro Series sets a new benchmark in portrait photography, upgrading the portrait shooting experience across the lineup.
Snap Your Vibe at Every Zoom: 200MP FullFocal System
The realme 16 Pro+ is the only smartphone in its segment to combine a 200MP main camera with a 3.5× telephoto lens. The main camera uses Samsung’s HP5 sensor (1/1.56-inch) with an f/1.8 aperture, while the telephoto camera is based on the S5KJN5 sensor. Together, they form a full focal-length imaging system that supports shooting from 0.6× wide-angle to 120× zoom, offering flexibility across portrait, street, and long-range photography.
The 200MP capability extends across the realme 16 Pro Series. Both realme 16 Pro and realme 16 Pro+ models support 200MP full-pixel auto zoom as well as 1× and 2× lossless zoom, ensuring a consistent, flagship-level imaging experience across the lineup. This series-wide upgrade reflects realme’s commitment to delivering advanced photography capabilities to more young users.
Unlocking Portrait Charm: LumaColor IMAGE
The realme 16 Pro+ sets a new standard in imaging, powered by advanced algorithmic innovations. At its core, the realme 16 Pro+’s 200MP main camera is powered by the all-new LumaColor IMAGE, backed by TÜV Rheinland certification and rigorous testing at the jointly established LumaColor IMAGE LAB. It provides full-dimensional skin tone optimization, optical depth-of-field fusion blur, and person-scene lighting and shadow reconstruction. The result is a harmonious effect of “a thousand faces, a thousand complexions,” ensuring every photo is rich in realism, texture, and vivid lighting. Combined with the ProDepth bokeh algorithm, it delivers hair-level bokeh and three-dimensional depth across the full focal range, accurately capturing fine details in party shots, makeup close-ups, or high-definition LiveHouse stage portraits.
In group photos, the realme 16 Pro+ ensures everyone is captured clearly and prominently. The main camera is further enhanced by class-first HyperRAW, InstantSnap, and Anti-Distortion algorithms, delivering sharper details, more stable dynamic captures, and reduced edge distortion across the full focal range. AI group photo features, including AI Perfect Shot, Anti-Distortion, and AI Ultra Clarity, address common challenges such as poor expressions, edge distortion in high-definition mode, and blurred details, ensuring every face looks its best.
Capture Every Angle and Vibe: 4K FullFocal HDR Video
Photography is just the beginning. The realme 16 Pro+ also elevates video creation with professional-grade 4K FullFocal HDR capabilities, giving users full control over every scene.
For video enthusiasts, the realme 16 Pro+ supports 4K FullFocal HDR video shooting, covering 1×/2×/3.5×/7× focal lengths, and provides dual-focal 4K 60fps (1×/3.5×) shooting capability, with the front camera also supporting 4K 60fps shooting. The MainTrack tracking algorithm enables precise subject locking during free movement, maintaining professional-grade focus stability. The innovative 4K Motion Photo feature can also convert 4K video clips into motion photos, unlocking more creative possibilities for users.
