The Realme GT Master Explorer Edition is equipped with a triple camera setup consisting of a 50-megapixel primary camera, a 16-megapixel ultra-wide-angle camera, a 2-megapixel macro camera, and a 2-megapixel macro. The 64-megapixel camera uses pixel binning to deliver 16-megapixel shots by default. For selfies, it has a 20-megapixel sensor in the dew-drop notch. The camera app is what we are used to seeing on other Samsung devices. It has scene recognition that’s enabled by default, and it is quick to detect scenes.

Daylight photos taken with the Realme GT Master turned out well but did not have the best dynamic range. The scene detection is quick to set the phone up and colors are slightly boosted in the output. You do have the option to disable it before taking the shot. Details were strictly average and text at a distance wasn’t legible. The ultra-wide-angle camera offered a wider field of view and managed to keep distortion under check. However, details aren’t the best which is evident on zooming in.

The Realme GT Master does close-ups very well and manages a soft depth between the subject and the background. Subjects were sharp and the colors were fairly accurate. Portrait shots had good edge detection and the Realme GT Master does let you select the level of blur before taking the shot. Macro shots were decent but I had to try different angles to avoid blocking light while holding the phone too close to the subject. The output is limited to 2 megapixels in resolution.

In low-light, the scene detection was quick to change settings and the Realme GT Master used a slightly longer exposure to take each shot. The phone managed to keep noise under control but the fine grain was visible in the output. You do get a dedicated Night mode, in which it takes about 5 seconds to capture a shot. The phone also crops into the frame slightly to minimize shakes while shooting. The resulting images have slightly better details in the shadows, but there isn’t a huge improvement.

Selfies were decent, with good details. Portrait selfies were also good and the phone managed good edge detection. Even after dark with a light source nearby, the Realme GT Master managed good selfies. Samsung has beautification on by default, which smoothens the output, but you can disable it.

Video recording tops out at 1080p for both the primary as well as the selfie camera. Footage shot in daylight did have shakes, and the phone failed to stabilize shots completely. Low-light footage also had visible shakes if recorded while walking around. Video recording isn’t one of the strong suits of the Realme GT Master.
