Earlier today, realme announced that they would be among one of the first manufacturers to launch a smartphone powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 SoC.
At the Qualcomm Snapdragon Tech Summit Digital 2021, realme VP Chase xu confirmed that realme has been working on the upcoming GT 2 Pro for a few months now, and the device will be the first Pro product of the realme GT series and their most premium flagship to date.
He stated that “with powerful performance and top 5G capabilities, Snapdragon® 8 Gen 1 Mobile Platform, has expanded new possibilities for the development of realme’s new flagship realme GT 2 Pro, especially in terms of gaming, AI capability, and 5G, pushing user experience to a new level and becoming the powerful engine for realme’s first premium flagship.”
Other than this announcement, realme did not provide any finer details about the upcoming device. Still, with the render leaks of the GT 2 Pro, we have room to speculate about the specifications of the upcoming flagship.
At the moment, the GT 2 Pro is expected to feature a rear camera setup with dual 50 MP sensors and an 8MP camera. The device is also likely to have a GR lens that should deliver the best shooting performance by reducing ghosting, multi-coating on all surfaces, and providing resistance against backlighting. The device is also expected to feature a 32MP front camera and a 5000mAh battery with 125W UltraDart charging.
The realme GT 2 Pro is expected to pack a 6.8-inch 120Hz WQHD+ OLED display. The device is confirmed to feature a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 (SM8450) processor that may be backed by 12GB of LPDDR5 RAM, 256GB UFS 2.1 storage, 120Hz refresh rate screen, and Android 12.
