Buying advice for Algeria
Both Realme 12 and Realme P3x are sold in Algeria, but they fit different priorities.
Both phones sit in the same price band, so the choice comes down to specs and brand preference.
Realme P3x packs a 6000 mAh battery, which translates to longer screen-on time when you are away from a charger.
Realme P3x posts a stronger benchmark score, useful for heavier games and multitasking on Algerian carriers' busier 4G networks.
Realme 12 reaches a higher main-sensor resolution at 108 MP, which helps with crops and lower-light photos.
In the 30,000 to 60,000 DZD bracket, look for 5,000 mAh batteries, 120Hz screens, and at least 6 GB of RAM.
