Realme is set to expand its flagship lineup with a new addition to the GT 7 series, according to recent leaks. The latest model is rumored to carry the high-performance specifications of the existing GT 7 Pro, but with a twist that could make it more affordable for consumers.
The GT 7 Pro recently made waves by becoming the first Snapdragon 8 Elite-powered device available in Europe, with its initial launch offering a significant discount. While that promotion has wrapped up, the buzz hasn’t dulled with news of a potential new variant on the horizon.
The trusted source, Digital Chat Station, suggests that Realme’s forthcoming smartphone will share its impressive 50MP main camera and 8MP ultrawide lens with the Pro model. However, it will forego the periscope zoom capability. The design is expected to mirror the trendy, vertical dual-camera layout reminiscent of the iPhone 16, albeit with a distinctive ring-flash.
Equipped with Realme’s top-tier 6.78-inch LTPO RealWorld Eco2 Display and an ultrasonic fingerprint sensor, this yet-to-be-named device will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite SoC. Its design is tipped to feature a sleek, flat-edged chassis with 2.5D-curved panels, promising similar durability with an IP68/69 rating but with a slightly reduced weight of 218 grams.
Both the GT 7 Pro and its new sibling are rumored to pack the robust 6,500mAh Titan Battery that Realme launched in late 2024. However, confirmation on the ultra-fast 120W charging capabilities for the new model is still awaited. Interestingly, the upcoming model might exclusively offer a sleek black color option upon its release.
Set to potentially debut in 2025, this new entry in the GT 7 series could pose a significant challenge to other flagship titans like the OnePlus 13R, bringing nearly all the cutting-edge features at a more accessible price point. Keep an eye out for this game-changer in Realme’s ever-evolving lineup—it’s bound to turn heads and up the ante in the high-stakes arena of flagship smartphones.
