realme GT launched in China a month ago. The device’s ‘Neo’ variant has recently been spotted on India’s BIS certification. While we speculate which among these would launch in India, realme CMO Francis Wang has hinted about a new flagship arrival in the country.

In a chat with Francis for the ‘Know your realmers’ episode, he talks a lot about realme and their plans ahead. In it, while replying to a question of which realme phone is he using as a daily driver, he hints about a new flagship device and says that ” it will launch as a part of realme’s 3rd-anniversary celebration”.

If you recall, realme began its journey in the first week of May in 2018. Going by Francis’s words, the next realme flagship for India should launch next month i.e, May 2021. Although we don’t have a confirmed date yet, it could be on May 4.

Talking about the device itself, just like the TechRadar report says, Francis doesn’t share any details on the name or features of the flagship. However, it could very well be the realme GT.

Now, keep in mind that the realme GT Neo, which is certified on BIS as mentioned above, is also a flagship but has MediaTek Dimensity 1200 chipset.

realme brought the Snapdragon 855 Plus-powered realme X2 Pro as its first flagship to India. Later, in early 2020, it was among the first to launch the realme X50 Pro 5G with Snapdragon 865 chipset. If the trend continues, we think the 2021 flagship will be the realme GT but let’s wait for an official confirmation.

The realme GT in China features a 6.43-inch Super AMOLED 120Hz display, Snapdragon 888 chipset paired with LPDDR5 RAM and UFS 3.1 storage, triple-camera with 64MP main lens, 4,500mAh battery and supports 65W fast charging, and realme UI 2.0 based on Android 11 OS.
