1. iQOO 13 vs Realme GT 7 Pro: When are they launching in India & What’s the price?

In an official teaser, the Realme GT 7 Pro was confirmed to launch in India on 26th November 2024. In other words, it is arriving in the country a week earlier than the iQOO 13. To recall, the latter is set to launch in the market on 3rd December 2024.

When we first compared the two devices before, the Realme GT 7 Pro was the most affordable Snapdragon 8 Elite powered smartphone. Meanwhile, the iQOO 13 was the second most affordable model in China with the same flagship chipset. The Realme GT 7 Pro was announced in China for 3,699 Yuan, or roughly around 43,716 INR (515 US Dollars). iQOO unveiled its new flagship phone for 3,999 Yuan or about 47,262 INR (roughly 561 US Dollars). Both models will likely cost more outside of China, but we can expect a similar price gap between the two in India as well.

2. What’s the difference between the iQOO 13 & Realme GT 7 Pro?

The iQOO 13 was unveiled with a taller 6.83-inch LTPO OLED display that offers a higher 2K resolution and a smoother 144Hz refresh rate. However, the Realme GT 7 Pro has a 6.78-inch LTPO Samsung Eco² OLED Plus display that has an impressive 6000 nits of peak brightness, 1.5K resolution, a 120Hz refresh rate, and a 2600Hz touch sampling rate.

While both models are equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Elite SoC, the iQOO 13 houses an impressive 6,150mAh battery pack, but a larger 6,500mAh cell powers the Realme GT 7 Pro. Unfortunately, Realme GT 7 Pro does not support wireless charging but offers faster 120W wired charging. On the other hand, the iQOO 13 has 100W wired fast charging and 50W wireless fast charging.

One of the biggest differences between the iQOO 13 and Realme GT 7 Pro is the camera department. You get three 50MP sensors on the iQOO flagship for its main, ultra wide, and telephoto shooter. The premium new Realme phone only offers a 50MP main sensor, which is paired with an 8MP ultra wide angle lens and a 50MP telephoto shooter. For selfies and video calls, the Realme GT 7 Pro features a 16MP selfie shooter, while the iQOO 13 packs a 32MP camera.
