Tipster Digital Chat Station previously claimed that the global variant of the Realme GT 7 Pro uses a customized Samsung display, which is reportedly more expensive than the BOE display used in the Chinese variant. Now, the tipster reveals that this customized display offers a peak brightness (HBM) of 2000 nits globally, an increase from the 1600 nits seen on the Realme GT5 Pro.
Brighter than OnePlus 13 in direct sunlight
In comparison, the upcoming OnePlus 13‘s BOE X2 display is also rumored to offer the same 1600 nits of global peak brightness. For those unfamiliar, global peak brightness (or HBM) represents the brightness level the phone achieves in direct sunlight, which is the most important number to look for when it comes to visibility.
Speaking of the manual peak brightness, it reportedly remains the same as the GT 5 Pro (1000 nits). Unfortunately, the tipster didn’t reveal the local peak brightness (or simply peak brightness), which is only triggered in a small portion of the display when watching HDR content.
The phone also uses the yet-to-be-unveiled Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 (or Snapdragon 8 Elite) chipset, which has already surfaced on Geekbench with top-notch performance. However, many people are concerned about the power efficiency and heating of the new chip as it boasts a totally different core architecture and reaches a clock speed as high as 4.32GHz.
Performance
A previous report claims the CPU reached over 98°C in normal usage. Most of the 2024 flagships (including those with Dimensity 9400) also pack massive batteries as compared to their predecessor. It could be due to the Cortex-X925 prime core.
That said, we will need to see how manufacturers tune the performance and thermal management.
Coming back to the Realme GT 7 Pro, it’s also rumored to pack a capacity exceeding 6,000mAh, the largest battery on a realme phone ever. According to DCS, it will be a 6-cell battery, which suggests rapid charging as all of them will be charged simultaneously. According to the 3C listing of the phone, it will come with a 120W charger in the box.
Following the current trend, realme has also adopted the silicon-carbon anode battery tech, which is expected to keep the phone relatively slick and lightweight despite the increased capacity.
The Realme GT 5 Pro was launched exclusively in the Chinese market on December 7 last year.
