Realme has unveiled the Realme GT 2 and Realme GT 2 Pro flagship phones for global markets. The devices were originally announced in China earlier this year and succeeded the Realme GT from last year.
Realme GT 2 Pro
The Realme GT 2 Pro features a Paper Technology Design developed in association with Japanese designers Naoto Fukasawa and Sabic. With a top-shelf Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, Samsung’s latest120Hz AMOLED display tech, 50MP triple cameras, and 65W fast charging support, the devices look plenty promising on paper.
The Realme GT 2 Pro is available with a 4nm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chip with 8GB or 12GB of RAM, and UFS 3.1 storage (128GB or 256GB), it was one of the first to offer Qualcomm’s top silicon in Europe.
Given the new chipset gets really hot, Realme claims the industry’s largest heat dissipation area from a built-in 36,761mm2 vapor chamber that can provide a 3°C relief when the chipset is stressed.
The Realme GT 2 Pro has a 50MP f/1.8 main camera that uses a 1/1.56-inch Sony IMX766 sensor with Omni-directional PDAF and OIS. There’s another 50MP sensor in front of the world’s joint-first 150-degree ultrawide camera, which enables a near-fisheye level of width. The third rear-mounted camera is a 3MP microscope with 40x magnification. On the front is a 32MP selfie camera.
The Realme GT2 Pro spots a Samsung E4 AMOLED LTPO 2.0 that is 6.7-inches and has a resolution of 1440x3216px. The 1–bit HDR10+ display supports up to 1.07b colors and can ramp up to 1400 nits of brightness.
Thanks to its LTPO 2.0 tech, the Realme GT2 Pro can dynamically adjust from as low as 1Hz, all the way up to 120Hz. It’s the same tech behind the Galaxy S22 Ultra’s display
Finally, the Realme GT2 Pro has a 5,000mAh battery with 65W charging. During the launch, Realme sold that the device can go from 0% to 100% in 33 minutes.
Realme GT 2
The Realme GT2 is a cheaper version of the flagship. It runs on the Snapdragon 888 chipset and has a slightly-smaller 6.62-inch 1080p AMOLED with a maximum refresh rate of 120Hz.
It retains the big 5,000mAh battery with the fast 65W charging, as well as the IMX766-powered main camera, but lacks the flashy ultrawide and microscope.
The Realme GT2 Pro and GT2 run Realme UI 3.0 with a guaranteed 3 years of OS updates and 4 years of Android security patches.
