In February, Realme will unveil the Realme Neo 7 SE equipped with the Dimensity 8400-Max chipset in China. It appears that it will not be the only performance-driven phone planned for the Chinese market. As per a Chinese tipster, the more powerful Realme GT 7 may also debut in the coming month.

Realme GT 7 tipped to launch in February

In November 2024, Realme unveiled the Realme GT 7 Pro, powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset. Earlier this month, an upcoming Realme phone with the model number RMX5090 was spotted in the database of the TENAA certification platform. The listing revealed that, compared to the GT 7 Pro, the RMX5090 lacks a periscope telephoto camera while retaining the same specifications as the GT 7 Pro. Furthermore, the absence of one camera results in a slightly redesigned dual-camera module on the RMX5090, replacing the triple-camera setup seen on the GT 7 Pro.

While there is no clarity about the final moniker of the Realme RMX5090, it is being dubbed the Realme GT 7. According to tipster Experience More, apart from the Neo 7 SE, Realme will also announce the Realme GT 7 by the end of February in China. While the GT 7 Pro is Realme’s first phone with an ultrasonic in-screen fingerprint sensor, the inclusion of the same is questionable on the GT 7. Likely, the brand may offer an optical-type in-screen fingerprint sensor on the GT 7 to launch it at a reduced price.

Talking about the price, the Realme GT 7 will temporarily displace the OnePlus Ace 5 Pro to become the most affordable Snapdragon 8 Elite chip-powered smartphone. To recall, the Ace 5 Pro was announced with a starting price of 3,399 Yuan (~$465) in China.

The tipster added that the upcoming Realme Neo 7 SE is basically regarded as the Neo 7 with a new chip, the Dimensity 8400-Max. To recall, the Neo 7 was announced with the Dimensity 9300+ chip in December 2024 in China. In other words, the Neo 7 SE will be identical to the Neo 7, and the only major difference will be the inclusion of a less powerful chip. The Neo 7 SE is also expected to dethrone the Redmi Turbo 4 to become the most affordable Dimensity 8400 phone. To recall, the Redmi Turbo 4 debuted earlier this month with a starting price of 1,999 Yuan (~$275).
