Barely a few months have passed since the release of the Realme GT Neo and Realme is now already set to announce its successor. The next generation has been named Realme GT Neo2, and it will be making its debut at 2 PM (local time) on September 22.

And today, Realme has officially teased a “BlackMint” color option for the Realme GT Neo2, which comprises black and mint colors just as the name implies. The rear panel has been splashed mostly with a flashy minty green color, but it is complemented by a couple of black stripes. The thicker among the two has “realme” written on it, while the thinner band has marquee-like text that we have become all too familiar with – “DARE TO LEAP” in all caps.

Prominent leakster Digital Chat Station has revealed that the BlackMint color option for the Realme GT Neo2 will be making use of satin AG technology for a matte finish. For the uninitiated, AG stands for anti-glare and is less reflective and less of a fingerprint magnet when pitched against the regular glass back.

We previously highlighted how the Realme GT Neo2 would be coming with a Neo Green color option. However, as it has turned out, the color is actually called BlackMint. Other rumored color options include a darker green color with a special Mercedes-AMG edition of the phone, Mirror Black, Dream Blue, and Super Orange.

Specifications to be expected with the Realme GT Neo2 include a 6.62-inch AMOLED FHD+ punch-hole display with a refresh rate of 120Hz, a 64-megapixel + 8-megapixel + 2-megapixel triple rear camera setup combined with a 16-megapixel front camera. The device will be powered by the flagship-level Snapdragon 870 SoC and may come with up to 12 GB of RAM and 256 GB of internal storage. The battery is adequately sized at 4,500mAh. The software the device will first boot into will obviously be Realme UI 2.0 UI-based Android 11 OS. Unfortunately, there isn’t any info at hand regarding the pricing of this champ.
