Realme may be stepping up its display game in a big way. According to new leaks, the upcoming GT 8 Pro is expected to feature a high-end anti-glare screen similar to the one used on Samsung’s premium Galaxy S25 Ultra. That could make it one of the most visually impressive phones Realme has ever launched.
The GT 8 Pro is rumored to arrive in Q3 or Q4 2025 with a 6.85-inch 2K OLED display sourced from Samsung. What sets it apart is the AR anti-glare coating, a treatment that debuted on the Galaxy S24 Ultra. It’s designed to significantly reduce reflections, making content easier to see outdoors and in harsh lighting.
If true, this would mark a major upgrade over the GT 7 Pro (review), which launched in 2024 with a 6.78-inch 1.5K panel. Realme is also reportedly using a polarizer-free OLED, which can make the display thinner and more power-efficient.
Under the hood, the GT 8 Pro is expected to run on Qualcomm’s upcoming Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 chip. That said, all this high-end hardware might come at a cost. According to reports, the GT 8 Pro could have one of the highest bill of materials among 2025 Android flagships.
Still, Realme has a track record of delivering strong value. The GT 7 Pro launched at ₹59,999 in India (around $690), a far cry from the $1,299 starting price of Samsung’s S25 Ultra. If Realme can keep the GT 8 Pro priced competitively, it could be a serious contender.
The display will likely support Dolby Vision and a 120Hz refresh rate, putting it in the same league as Samsung’s 2,600-nit HDR10+ panel, though brightness and durability specifics are still under wraps. The GT7 Pro, for context, reaches a global peak brightness of 2000 nits and local peak brightness of 6500 nits. More details should emerge as we head closer to its expected late-2025 launch.
