Currently, there are only three smartphones in the market featuring the Snapdragon 7+ Gen 2 chipset, namely the Realme GT Neo 5 SE, the Redmi Note 12 Turbo, and the Poco F5 5G. Notably, the Poco F5, available in the global market, is essentially a rebranded version of the Redmi Note 12 Turbo, which is exclusively available in the Chinese market. Unfortunately, the Realme GT 5 Neo SE, an appealing mid-range phone, has remained limited to the Chinese market since its launch in April 2023. Now, it is being offered at a discounted price in preparation for China’s upcoming November 11 (Double Eleven) annual shopping festival.
