Ahead of Christmas, realme started rolling out Android 12-based realme UI 3.0 stable update for the realme GT in China. A few days from that, this update is now being seeded out in India as well. Thus, the device becomes the first realme phone to get Android 12 in the country.

According to an official announcement post (via XDA Developers) on realme Community, the realme UI 3.0 stable update for realme GT in India arrives with firmware version RMX2202_11.C.05.

Just like any other OTA software update, this one is also being rolled out in batches. Hence, the brand requests users to be patient as the update will take some to reach every unit across the region.

The official changelog for the latest system update for realme GT in India does not mention the security patches. But we think it should be bundled with December 2021 security patches.

As far as new features are concerned, realme UI 3.0 brings everything that’s included in ColorOS 12. That’s because realme’s Android skin is a fork of OPPO’s mobile software, which is now being also used by OnePlus.

Having said that, as realme has already begun the Android 12 beta program for multiple other devices, they could also start receiving stable releases in the coming days.

Chinese tech brand realme has confirmed to unveil realme UI 3.0 based on Android 12 on October 13. Ahead of that, the company has kicked off the ‘Android 12 Eary Access’ program for realme GT 5G in its home country

The realme GT 5G is the brand’s first and the only Snapdragon 888-powered smartphone released to date. Hence, it positions this device as its flagship phone. Hence, it is the first model to receive Android 12.

According to an official announcement post on realme Community China, only 700 users will be able to experience Android 12 on the realme GT 5G in China initially. The registrations for the initiative have been opened and they will be closed when the required number of users get selected. 

The company says that user data will not be erased when upgrading from realme UI 2.0 to Android 12 Early Access. However, it still recommends users to back up the date and store it somewhere else to restore it if required.

The only requirement to join the program is that the phone should not be rooted. Whereas, the selection criteria will be based on a questionnaire.

Interestingly, realme does not call this software realme UI 3.0. But we believe it should be an early release of 3rd-gen realme UI with some missing features.

Having said that, we expect realme to shed more details on its latest software next week.

Handset maker realme has finally launched the realme GT series in India after teasing it for a while. The brand has brought two models to the country, namely realme GT  (review) and realme GT Master Edition (hands-on). Let’s take a look at what these smartphones have to offer and how much they cost in the region.

realme GT, realme GT Master Edition Specifications & Features

The realme GT and the realme GT Master Edition flaunt a 6.43-inch Samsung Super AMOLED display with a resolution of 2400 x 1080 pixels (FHD+), 120Hz refresh rate, and 360Hz touch sampling rate. The panel covers 100% of the DCI-P3 color gamut and 98% of the NTSC color gamut. It has a peak brightness of 1000 nits, 5,000,000:1 contrast ratio, 91.7% screen-to-body ratio, and a single punch-hole at the top left corner.

Just like the display, the rear camera setup is also identical on the two. Both sport a triple camera setup consisting of a 64MP primary sensor, an 8MP ultra-wide unit, and a 2MP macro shooter. However, for selfies and video calls, the vanilla GT uses a 16MP snapper, whereas the Master Edition has a 32MP sensor.

Now, talking about the major difference, the realme GT is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 chipset as compared to a Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G SoC present inside the realme GT Master Edition. The former comes with LPDDR5 RAM and UFS 3.1 storage but there’s no information on the type of RAM and storage included with the latter.

On the connectivity front, the duo supports dual-SIM, 5G, WiFi 6, Bluetooth 5.2, GNSS, and NFC. Further, the realme GT has a 3.5mm headphone jack as well as dual stereo speakers. The realme GT Master Edition, on the other hand, lacks both of these features. Anyway, the duo arrives with all the essential sensors like an in-display fingerprint sensor, accelerometer, ambient light sensor, compass, proximity sensor, and gyroscope.

Although the two run realme UI 2.0 based on Android 11 and support 65W SuperDart fast charging protocol, the standard model is backed by a 4,500mAh battery, while the Master Edition gets its energy from a slightly smaller 4,300mAh battery.

These phones measure around 8-9mm in thickness and weigh about 170-190g. They come in glass and vegan leather finishes. Last but not least, the leather finish on the Master Edition has a suitcase-inspired design.

The Realme GT 5G and GT Master Edition will be berthing in the Indian market on August 18, with sales commencing via Flipkart thereafter. Realme CEO Madhav Sheth had hinted at the August 18 India launch date during the last edition of AskMadhav on YouTube. The company has today officially confirmed, via their listing on Flipkart, the date for the unveiling of the two devices.

The Realme GT 5G comes with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 888 chipset, while the GT Master Edition will be powered by Snapdragon 778G chipset. There had been rumors that the India launch will also include the Realme Master Edition Explorer with Snapdragon 870. However, today’s announcement indicates that the Master Edition Explorer is not berthing in India, at least at the moment.

The Realme GT Master Edition packs up to 12GB of RAM together with 7GB of virtual RAM. Two variants are available in terms of RAM/ internal storage. The base model has 8GB/128GB of RAM/internal storage, while the higher model has 12GB/256GB of RAM/internal storage. The smartphone will run on Android 11 together with the Realme UI 2.0.

The front-facing and rear camera systems of the device consist of a 32MP front camera, a 64MP rear camera, an 8MP ultra-wide lens, and a 2MP macro camera. The camera setup combines to give videos and pictures of decent quality. There is also an in-display fingerprint sensor, impressive speakers, and it supports 5G connectivity. The Realme GT Master Edition also has a 4,300mAh/4,200mAh battery that guarantees long use and 65W fast charging.

The Realme GT 5G had been unveiled in China in March, while Europe had a feel of the device in June 2021. There are no changes in the India Edition of the Realme GT 5G, as promised by Realme CEO, Madhav Sheth. It comes in 8GB/12GB of RAM variants and 128GB/256GB of internal storage. It has a 6.43-inch FHD AMOLED display and would run on the Android 11 operating system together with the Realme UI 2.0. It also comes with a quad-camera setup that consists of a 64MP primary sensor, an 8MP ultra-wide sensor, a 2MP macro, and a 16MP selfie camera. It packs a larger 4,500mAh battery and has 65W fast charging support.

While no specifics have been mentioned as per pricing, the Realme CEO hinted that the new GT series for the Indian market may not be priced below Rs. 30,000 ($404). The fine details of the launch will be out soon as we inch closer to the d-day.

Since then, the company has also launched Master Edition versions for Realme X2 Pro and Realme X50 Pro flagship phones.

Yesterday, Realme CMO Xu Qi took to Weibo to share an image featuring himself, Fukasawa, and other Realme executives to tease the arrival of a new Master Edition. The Weibo post did not mention the name of the Master Edition device.

Today, reliable tipster Digital Chat Station claimed that Realme’s next product is not the X9 series. He added that the company is gearing to launch the Realme GT Master Edition. Yet again, the company has teamed up with Fukasawa to design the next Master Edition device.

The Realme X9 series is expected to debut by mid-July. Hence, there is a possibility that the GT Master Edition may go official in the next few days. Probably, the GT Master Edition may feature the same specs as the original Realme GT 5G, but it may come with a refreshed rear design and color like the predecessor Master Edition phones.

The Realme GT 5G has a 6.43-inch FHD+ AMOLED display, a 32-megapixel front camera, and a 64-megapixel triple camera system. It comes with Snapdragon 888, up to 12 GB of LPDDR5 RAM, up to 256 GB of native storage, and a 4,500mAh battery with 65W rapid charging support.

Ahead of the handset’s official release outside mainland China, here’s your first look at the realme GT 5G European/global variant.

We have got access to a couple of images of the realme GT 5G European/global variant. This version of the smartphone has the exact same set of specs as the Chinese model. 

The only difference is that the model, which will be sold in Europe has a CE (Conformité Européenne) marking, a WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment recycling) label, and the manufacturer’s address on its back. As a result, the phone loses its clean rear finish.

The realme GT 5G with model number RMX2202 will be priced competitively in Europe. The device’s price is said to be close to the Chinese retail price. In other words, this handset will go official as a flagship killer.

According to a recent leak, the smartphone will cost around €400 and €450 for the 8GB + 128GB and the 12GB + 256GB variants respectively. It will be available in Blue (glass back) and Yellow (vegan leather) color options.

Unfortunately, there’s no information on the price of the 512GB variant, which is shown in the live pictures.

Earlier this year, Realme announced the Realme GT 5G flagship in China. The handset is yet to be made available for purchase outside the home market. It was revealed last month that the Realme GT 5G is coming to the European markets this month. A fresh leak by tipster Sudhanshu Ambhore has revealed the configurations, pricing, and color variants of the phone for Europe.

According to the tipster, the Realme GT 5G will come to Europe in two variants such as 8 GB RAM + 128 GB storage and 12 GB RAM + 256 GB storage. These models could be priced at €400 and €450, respectively.

The pricing information of the Realme GT 5G may not be accurate and it may vary by +/- €20. It could be available in two color variants such as Blue with glass back and Yellow with Vegan Leather.

Realme GT 5G specifications and features

The Realme GT 5G has a 6.43-inch S-AMOLED display that offers a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels, a 20:9 aspect ratio, a 120Hz refresh rate, and an in-display fingerprint sensor. The display punch-hole has a 16-megapixel selfie camera, and its back panel features a 64-megapixel primary snapper, an 8-megapixel ultrawide lens, and a 2-megapixel macro camera.

Recently, the Realme GT 5G was found listed as “coming soon” on Realme India’s website. Probably, the company could be planning to launch the flagship in India at some point in this month.

After our Redmi K40 and K40 Pro reviews last week, today, we are bringing another flagship killer, the Realme GT. If you have been following the brand and this phone over the past few weeks, you must already know which model this phone is targeted at. The placement of the Realme GT is like the brand making a bold announcement —  ‘we are coming for the Redmi K40 Pro’.

Even when Redmi had announced the pricing of the K40 Pro, Realme just came forward and said that the GT was going to be priced lower. And the brand didn’t go back on its word. The 8+128GB version only sells for 2799RMB, which is 200RMB cheaper than the same version of the K40 Pro. 

So how exactly does this flagship killer compare to an already great smartphone – the Redmi K40 Pro? 

Let’s find that out!

Realme GT Review: Design

At first glance itself, we realized that the Realme GT had little chance to defeat the K40 Pro in the design department. But the good news is that the Realme GT is even more compact than the K40 Pro, which had already surprised us with its thin and light body. The GT weighs only 186g but at the same time features a slightly smaller 6.43-inch display.  

Thanks to its smaller display, It is easier to hold the Realme GT as compared to the K40 Pro.

Perhaps due to cost limitations on such an aggressively priced model, the camera module on the Realme GT is still a matrix design. This design is shared by almost all of Realme’s smartphones. And after looking at so many models using this camera module style, it’s hard not to feel a little bored with this design. The blue and silver color versions are also the same color schemes that have been used before. The yellow leather-like version is kind of nice, however, it is only available for the 12GB RAM + 256GB ROM variant.

The Realme GT has, the now rare, 3.5mm headphone jack, which is almost hardly seen on smartphones these days. I have to give the brand some credit for including this dedicated port. But all in all, I don’t think the Realme GT looks good enough to please most people.

The 6.43-inch Super AMOLED display features a resolution of 2400 x 1080, a refresh rate of 120Hz but it doesn’t use the latest E4 light-emitting screen. The hole-punch area is also relatively larger if we compare it to the K40 series. This display is still one of the most popular options for a 2021 mainstream model, however, there’s nothing that stands out. One thing to note here is that the overall maximum brightness of the Realme GT’s display is only around 600 nits while the K40 Pro has an overall maximum brightness of 900 nits. So when using the GT under direct sunlight, the insufficient brightness makes it a bit difficult to look at the display especially when compared to the K40 series. 

Realme GT Review: Benchmarks & Hardware

Since the phone comes with the letters GT in its name, Snapdragon 888, LPDDR5, and UFS 3.1 are naturally not absent. All of this performance-related hardware are the best options for an Android Phone in 2021. With GT mode on, in Antutu Benchmark, the Realme GT scores over 740,000, and in 3D Mark, it scores around 5800.

In another benchmark, the Geekbench 5, we got a result of 1142 points in the single-core test, and 3703 points in the multi-core test. So from all the results we mentioned, the GT achieved a similarly high level of performance as the other snapdragon 888 phones and was even a bit better than most Android phones we’ve ever tested.

Realme GT Review: Gaming

In the actual gaming test, the results are also excellent. In the thirty-minute test of Genshin Impact, the GT achieved an average frame rate of 55.03 fps. It started to throttle down the CPU clock speed after three and a half minutes, but still managed to maintain a good gaming experience.

And in another game, the Nimian Legends, the Realme GT surprised us with an average frame rate of 51.75 fps, considering this game especially tested the phone’s cooling effects. Like Genshin Impact, it experienced a slight performance down throttling but still maintained a good gaming experience thanks to the excellent cooling effect.

And the hottest it got was around 51℃. I wouldn’t say this temperature is low, but at least it’s better than many Snapdragon 888 models which struggled to maintain such high performance. From our tests, it looks like the Realme GT is worthy of its GT name. 

Realme GT Review: Camera

Like the K40Pro, the camera system is also GT’s weak point, so let’s talk briefly about its camera performance. The Realme GT comes with a 64MP main camera, an 8MP ultra-wide-angle lens, and another 2MP macro lens.

Just to be clear, the general sample shots are taken with AI colour on, auto HDR and the rest are left at default, except for special scenes.

Primary Camera

The main camera outputs strong and vivid colors with a good dynamic range. The color contrast is high and colour gradation is relatively natural. The general images often showed an eye-pleasing style.

Night – Primary Camera

At night, the Realme GT’s Auto mode performs very well, with good exposure and accurate colours. Compared to the K40 Pro, the GT also performs much better in the dynamic range and image detail departments. And because Realme GT’s night-scene algorithm was automatically activated in its auto mode, there was little difference in the night images when we manually turned on the Night mode. 

Ultra Wide Angle Camera

The images shot on the Realme GT’s wide-angle camera are basically the same as what we had on the main camera. But the purple fringing issue is a bit remarkable for the wide-angle samples. In normal night scenes, except for the dynamic range which is slightly better on the Realme GT, there is no obvious difference between GT and the K40 Pro. Because the K40’s Wide-angle camera doesn’t integrate the night algorithm for auto mode, it suffers in extremely dark conditions.

Macro Camera

For macro shooting, the samples shot on the Realme GT’s macro lens cannot even compare to the images cropped from the original samples of the main camera. And this macro camera’s closest point of focus is limited to 4cm, so this sensor is pretty much useless and you may even assume it doesn’t exist. 

Realme GT Review: Charging

If we had to point out something that is really well-done on the Realme GT, it is the 65W charging technology. The phone charges to 21% in just five minutes, 61% in 15 minutes and it took just 31 minutes to charge to 100%. Although it’s not the fastest charging speed we’ve ever seen, it is still the best in its price segment when you compare it with rivals. Despite its high charging power, it doesn’t sacrifice battery capacity. With a 4500mAh battery, it consumed 6% of power each for 30-minute tiktok and 30-minute web video playback, 19% for 30-minute Genshin Impact gaming and 16% for 20-minute Nimian Legend gaming.

Considering its excellent gaming performance, battery life performance is really impressive. 

Realme GT Review: Verdict

So that’s what you should expect from the Realme GT. The phone really did a great job in the performance and gaming departments. Even when compared to the K40 Pro which was released around the same time, the Realme GT seems to have been able to better optimize the 888 chipset.

As a challenger trying to win the competition against the K40 Pro, Realme knows it needs solid features in order for the GT to come out as a better value for money product. And they have managed to do this to a considerable extent. But it’s a bit disappointing that its design and camera module didn’t bring us much surprise. While, at least on the K40 series, we were excited about its new design profile.

So which model are you going to pick between the K40 Pro and the Realme GT? And for what reason? Please leave your comments down below and share your views with us.

Yesterday, Realme held a launch event in China to announce the Realme GT 5G flagship. At the end of the event, the company confirmed that it will soon announce a new phone named the Realme GT Neo. As shown in the image below, it is confirmed that this device will arrive with the Dimensity 1200 chipset.

Unfortunately, nothing else is known about the Realme GT Neo. The company is expected to tease its features in the coming days. The Dimensity 1200 chipset was announced in January this year. The 6nm chipset includes Cortex-A78 prime core working at 3.0GHz, three Cortex-A78 cores clocking at 2.6GHz, and quad Cortex-A55 cores ticking at 2GHz. The SoC includes Mali-G77 MC9 graphics.

MediaTek claimed that the Realme’s phone with Dimensity 1200 chipset will go official by the end of this month or early April. Hence, it appears that the arrival of the Realme GT Neo could be only a few weeks away. The same chipset will also power a Redmi branded gaming phone.

The Realme GT 5G variants such as 8 GB RAM + 128 GB storage and 12 GB RAM + 256 GB storage are priced at 2,899 Yuan (~$448) and 3,399 Yuan (~$525) in China. On the first sale date (March 10), both variants will be available with discounted rates such as 2,799 Yuan (~$433) and 3,299 Yuan (~$510). The Dimensity 1200 powered Realme GT Neo could be priced around 2,000 Yuan and it is likely to borrow some of its specs from the Realme GT 5G smartphone.

The Realme GT 5G has a 6.43-inch AMOLED punch-hole display that offers a Full HD+ resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. It is equipped with the Snapdragon 888 chipset, LPPDR5 RAM, UFS 3.1 storage, and a 4,500mAh battery with 65W fast charging support. It has a front camera of 16-megapixel and its rear camera module has a 64-megapixel Sony IMX682 main camera, a 13-megapixel ultrawide lens, and a 2-megapixel macro lens.

Today, Realme announced the Realme GT 5G has its first flagship phone of the year. The company had been teasing the handset with its ‘Race’ codename since December. The major highlights of the Realme GT 5G include Snapdragon 888 chipset, a 120Hz refresh rate display, LPDDR5 RAM, 64MP triple cameras, and impressive design. It has arrived in China with a starting price of 2,899 Yuan (~$448). With this pricing, the Realme GT 5G will be rivaling with the Redmi K40 Pro smartphone, which carries the same starting price.

Realme GT 5G specifications and features

The Realme GT 5G comes in leather and glass back versions. The glass model measures 158.5 x 73.3 x 8.4mm and weighs 186 grams.

The screen offers a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels, a 120H refresh rate, and a 100 precent P3 color gamut. The smartphone promises a screen-to-body ratio of 91.7 percent.

The Realme GT 5G is fueled by the Snapdragon 888 mobile platform. It ships with 8 GB / 12 GB of LPDDDR5 RAM and 128 GB / 256 GB of UFS 3.1 storage. It lacks support for external storage. The handset comes pre-installed with Android 11 OS and Realme UI 2.0. There is a dedicated GT mode that offers leapfrog performance while gaming with enhanced image quality, 4D in-game vibrations, faster loading times, dynamic sound effects, and more. The smartphone is fitted with Dolby Atmos and Hi-Res audio certified dual speakers.

For heat dissipation, the Realme GT features a 3D tempered liquid cooling technology that can effectively reduce the phone’s temperature by up to 15℃ while gaming. The phone is backed by a 4,500mAh battery. It takes around 35 minutes for the phone to charge completely through its 65W fast charging technology.

The Realme GT 5G has a 16-megapixel front-facing camera. Its rear-facing camera island has a 64-megapixel Sony IMX682 primary camera with f/1.89 aperture, a 119-degree 8-megapixel ultrawide lens, and a 2-megapixel macro camera.

Realme will be unveiling the Realme GT on March 4 in China. Ahead of the upcoming launch, the smartphone has appeared at the Geekbench benchmarking platform (via). At that same time, the former OPPO VP Brian Shen has shared an image of the retail box of the smartphone.

At Geekbench 5, the Realme GT 5G has appeared with an RMX2202 model number. The listing reveals that the Snapdragon 888 powered phone is equipped with 12 GB of RAM and Android 11 OS. It scored 1138 and 3572 points in the single-core and multi-core tests, respectively.

The handset had previously appeared at AnTuTu with specs like a 120Hz refresh rate, 12 GB of LPDDR5 RAM, 256 GB of UFS 3.1 storage, SD888, and Android 11 OS. Other reports have revealed that the phone will be sporting a 64-megapixel + 13-megapixel + 13-megapixel triple camera system. It is expected to arrive with support for 65W fast charging. It also features a 3.5mm audio jack.

Brian Shen shared two mages through its Weibo handle. The first one shows the Realme GT smartphone’s Bumblebee leather edition in reality, whereas the image showcases its retail box. The Realme GT will come in a black-colored retail package with a big Realme branding. And apart from the leather variant, the handset will also come in a glass back version.

The Realme GT 5G will be priced less than 2,999 Yuan (~$463). In terms of pricing and specs, it will be rivaling the Redmi K40 Pro that debuted earlier this week with a starting price of 2,799 Yuan (~$432). The Realme GT 5G is expected to receive a stupendous response from the audience as it was reported on Thursday that its reservations have exceeded the 1 million mark.

Realme recently announced that the Realme GT will go official on March 4. The starting price of the smartphone was also earlier today revealed by Realme’s VP to start at less than 2999 yuan (~$465). This potentially makes the device a flagship killer. The Realme GT has now been shown to reach over 1 million units in reservations.

Although reservations don’t often translate to sales, that may not apply in this case. The  GT 5G is positioned to be a hot-selling model. The device will be powered by a Snapdragon 888 chipset with up to 12GB LPDDR5 RAM and 256GB UFS3.1 flash storage.

The Realme GT 5G will also feature an AMOLED screen that supports a refresh rate of 120Hz as well as 3D tempered liquid cooling system, stereo speakers, linear motors, and other impressive features.

Realme CMO Xu Qi had earlier disclosed that the Realme GT 5G will not come in a 6 GB RAM + 128 GB storage version. Thus, we expect the base variant to be an 8GB of RAM model with 128 GB of storage.

For now, we don’t have an idea of the size of the battery but the 3C certification for the GT 5G shows that it will come with 65W fast charging support. That should refuel the battery in record time if it runs flat. Yet another interesting feature is the in-screen fingerprint reader and the device also retains the 3.5mm audio jack.
