Realme has announced the launch date of its next-generation GT smartphone. The upcoming offering is confirmed to be the Realme GT 5 and it will likely arrive as the successor to the GT 3 that debuted earlier this year. The smartphone has been subject to a lot of leaks and rumors in recent times. Alongside the Realme GT 5, the brand is also confirmed to launch the Buds Air 5 at the event.
Realme GT 5 launch date revealed
Realme took to Chinese microblogging platform Weibo to announce the launch date of the GT 5. It will be unveiled at an event in the country on August 28, Monday as a part of the company’s 5th anniversary. The launch event will start at 2 pm local time.
Realme has also shared a poster of the GT 5 that subtly teases the design of the device. It is seen with a slim profile. The top portion of the back panel has a protruding module that stretches from the side frame. It appears to be quite similar to the design spotted in a leaked render last month that showed a rectangular camera bridge similar to the Pixel phones. This will give the smartphone a dual-tone look.
Previously, Realme confirmed that the GT 5 will support 240W fast charging which is already found on the GT Neo 5 and GT 3 240. The upcoming smartphone is teased to be powered by the flagship Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor. It is expected to be offered with up to 24GB RAM onboard.
We can expect Realme to share more teasers of the GT 5 leading up to the launch event next Monday. The device is rumored to feature a 6.7-inch AMOLED display with 144Hz refresh rate. It is tipped to have triple rear cameras and be backed by a 5,000mAh battery unit.
