Realme has officially launched the GT Neo 6 in China, the successor to the popular GT Neo 5. The phone positions itself as a “mid-range flagship,” aiming to deliver high-end performance at a competitive price.

Performance

The GT Neo6 boasts the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 mobile platform, the latest sub-flagship chip from Qualcomm. This, coupled with a 10,000-level VC cooling system, promises users top-tier performance for e-sports and other demanding tasks. 

To further enhance performance, the phone has a Geek Performance Panel 2.0 that allows users to customize CPU and GPU frequencies, along with an upgraded “AI Burning Mode” which intelligently activates full performance mode when a compatible cooling back clip is attached.

All this translates to incredible gaming performance, according to Realme. The phone supports native 1.5K resolution in “Genshin Impact” for superior visuals compared to standard 720p or upscaled resolutions. Additionally, it can optimize image quality and frame stability in popular games like “Honor of Kings.”

Memory options include up to 16GB of LPDDDR5X RAM and 1TB of UFS 4.0 storage. 

Display

The display is another highlight, and it’s basically unchanged from what we saw on the Neo 6 SE. That is, the phone has a 6.78-inch screen co-developed with BOE that has rated peak brightness of 6000 nits. 

While that’s the peak, the typical global maximum brightness sits at 1600 nits and the manual maximum brightness is 1000 nits. It’s an 8T LTPO panel with a variable refresh rate of 0.5-120Hz, 2160Hz high-frequency PWM dimming and 3+1 Pulse DC-like low-stroboscopic technology for a comfortable viewing experience.

There’s also Greenfield AI eye protection, an industry-first feature, that actively detects user fatigue and adjusts various screen parameters accordingly. It’s combined with other features like low-frequency flicker dimming and hardware-level blue light reduction for a comfortable viewing experience.

Camera

The Realme GT Neo 6 has a dual-camera system on the back. The main sensor is a 50MP Sony IMX882 sensor with optical image stabilization (OIS). It’s accompanied by an 8MP ultra-wide-angle sensor (Sony IMX355). And there’s a 32MP Sony IMX615 camera on the front for selfies.

Battery

The GT Neo6 is equipped with a 5500mAh battery, the largest among Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 phones, and supports 120W fast charging. It allows for a quick 50% charge in just 10 minutes. 

Realme doesn’t compromise on other aspects either. The phone comes equipped with Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2 for improved protection and supports IP65 dust and splash resistance. It’s the only phone among its competitors to feature “dual-frequency GPS + tri-frequency Beidou” for highly accurate positioning.

The phone also has an IR sensor, an X-axis linear motor, and NFC for a well-rounded flagship experience.

A Collaboration for Comic Fans

For the first time, Realme has collaborated with a leading Chinese comic IP to launch a limited edition Realme GT Neo6 “Perfect World” animation Yunxi gift box. 

It includes a customized phone with exclusive themes, ringtones, and a charging light effect inspired by the comic. The box also includes the latest Realme Buds Air 6 TWS, a customized phone case, and other peripherals. 

Price

The Realme GT Neo6 comes in four memory configurations. Here’s a breakdown of the pricing:

  • 12GB + 256GB: ¥2099
  • 16GB + 256GB: ¥2399
  • 16GB + 512GB: ¥2699
  • 16GB + 1TB: ¥2999

The phone is available for purchase via the company’s official site in China in Purple, Green, and Silver color variants.
