Earlier today (19th January 2022), Realme announced on its official Weibo account (a Chinese microblogging website) that it will be selling the GT Neo2 Dragon Ball Z Edition for a special discounted price soon.

Apparently, the Chinese smartphone maker will be selling the last 5,000 units of its GT Neo2 Dragon Ball Z variant worldwide for a limited price of just 2,799 INR (roughly 440 US Dollars). For those unaware, the Realme GT Neo2 Dragon Ball Z Special Edition first retailed for 2,999 Yuan (roughly 472 US Dollars). During its initial sales, the company sold out all 5,000 units of the limited edition smartphone earlier this month. But now, the company will be selling another 5,000 units of the device for a slightly lower price.

Talking about the smartphone itself, it is practically identical to the regular GT Neo2 in terms of specifications. However, its design is what sets it part. It features a unique theme, which is based on the iconic Anime series from the 90s. Under the hood, the device is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 chipset with a large 5000mAh battery that supports 65W SuperDart Charging. It sports a 6.62 inch E4 Samsung AMOLED display with 120Hz refresh rate as well. The company has yet to announce an official launch date for the last 5000 units, so stick around for more updates.

The post Realme to sell last 5000 GT Neo2 Dragon Ball Z Edition units for 2799 Yuan ($440) appeared first on Gizmochina.

The Realme GT Neo2 Dragon Ball Z Limited Edition is Realme’s innovative attempt at bringing your childhood anime nostalgia to a 2021 smartphone. Paired with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, the limited-edition smartphone went on its first sale in China on January 7 at a promotional price of RMB 2699, equivalent to 424 USD.

Dragon Ball is one of the best-known Japanese Anime on this planet. And clearly, we’ve been waiting for this edition for so long. Over the years, Realme has earned a reputation for bringing unique designs on its smartphones, so today we’re quite excited to bring you the unboxing and first hands-on with the GT Neo2 DBZ limited edition. 

To start off, let’s see what we get inside the box.

This limited-edition model comes with heavily customized packaging. On the surface of the box, you can see three images of the main protagonist of the Dragon Ball Z series — Goku, shown in three states, as an adult, super Saiyan, and super Saiyan 3. And on the side, there’s an interesting detail of the Dragon-ball Radar, which is used to find the location of the dragon balls. 

Open the box, and you will get a cover printed with Goku in super Sayan 3 and the strongest opponent of Dragon Ball Z, Kid Buu. 

And it comes with a wealth of character stickers and a collection card of the Dragon. This is truly a wonderful gift for DBZ fans. I clearly remember in my childhood I was always fascinated with the concept of dragons and even wished they existed in this world. And I always thought it would be even better if it was a dragon from the planet Namiak.

Under the cover, you’ll find the limited-edition phone. It features a glass back with an orange and blue paint job in a matte finish. The frame of the device is also blue-painted, which reminds us of the overalls worn by Goku. But to be honest, the color scheme looks a bit strange and is not very close to the original tone of the anime. 

The most obvious customized detail is the famous ‘Wisdom’ Kanji alongside the phone’s camera module, which is a signature symbol of Goku throughout the entire anime. Apart from the design, the phone is no different from the standard version of the Realme GT Neo 2. Despite having ‘GT’ in the name of the phone, the entire custom look of the limited edition is based on Goku’s character from Z series instead of the later GT TV-series.

Unfortunately, after this sim-card pin that’s inspired by the four-star Dragon Ball, there are no more customized accessories in the package. The charging kit is the same as what we found in the standard version. 

Now, let’s look at its software. The lock screen also has the character, themes, and custom icons inspired by the anime. And when you activate the GT mode for the best performance, it will give you a short anime scene showing seven dragon balls have been collected, and you’re just summoning the dragon. In addition, when you use the included 65W charger for charging, the display will bring an animated effect that looks like Goku gathering energy back. And when the phone gets fully charged, Goku in the background will transform into a Super Saiyan.

Although as a fan of Dragon Ball, I wished I could see more customizations, I’m still happy to actually have it in my hand, especially considering this is the first time we are seeing a customized phone of Dragon Ball Z.

The Realme GT Neo2 Dragon Ball Z Limited Edition is Realme’s innovative attempt at bringing your 90s childhood anime nostalgia to a modern 2020-era smartphone. Paired with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, the limited edition smartphone went on its first sale in China on January 7 at 12 am CST at a promotional price of RMB 2699 (~ USD 424).

The brilliant strategy of releasing a Dragon Ball Z Limited Edition of its already popular Realme GT Neo2 worked out excellently as the reception from Realme and Dragon Ball fans alike made all 5000 units of the smartphone sell out within its first sale. And by overwhelming demand, Realme has decided to launch a second flash sale of the Realme GT Neo2 Dragon Ball Z edition soon on January 10 at 12 am CST at its official Realme China online store, its official Tmall store, and at the Oppo China online store.

Specs-wise, the Dragon Ball Z Limited Edition is identical to the original Realme GT Neo2. Under the hood, it is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 chipset with a large 5000 mAh battery. Juicing up the battery is Realme’s in-house 65W SuperDart Charging that can take the phone from 0% to 100% in an hour. For multimedia consumption, buyers will be glad to hear that the phone is equipped with a 6.62” E4 120Hz Samsung AMOLED display with dual stereo speakers to boot.

The main difference between the Dragon Ball Z Limited Edition and the normal GT Neo2 is its design and what comes inside the box. Design-wise, the new Dragon Ball Z limited edition equips the Realme GT Neo2 with a glass back design with an orange matte finish, with matte blue stripes and blue metal side rails. The design is very reminiscent of the overalls that the main character of the shonen anime, Goku, was wearing during his battles against evils.

When opening the box, you will be greeted with a custom-designed sim card pin that resembles the fourth Dragon Ball, as well as exclusive stickers and artwork in the box too. Dragon Ball fans and collectors would be overjoyed to hear that the artwork showcases Goku’s battle highlights in the Dragon Ball Z series in a small, compact, and eye-catching card-shaped form factor.

The post Realme GT Neo2 Dragon Ball Z Limited Edition sold out all 5000 units in its first limited-time sale appeared first on Gizmochina.

A few days back, Realme announced the Dragon Ball Z limited edition model of the GT Neo2 in China. The smartphone comes with an Orange and Blue paint job referring to the protagonist from the series Goku. Now, the limited edition model seems to launch in Indian and European markets soon, as the company CMO has teased its release outside China.

Realme’s CMO Francis Wong on Twitter asked the community whether they want the Dragon Ball Z Edition of the phone in India and Europe. While he seems to be genuinely questioning about the fan’s interest in the special edition phone, it is none other than a clever teasing of the phone’s launch.

In the past, we’ve seen companies teasing the phone by asking questions about the device, later just to realise that it was nothing but a teaser for the phone’s arrival. This tweet from Wong seems to be the same.

Having said that, it’s time for Realme India and Europe fans to gear up for the launch of the Realme GT Neo2 Dragon Ball Z limited edition phone. Although there’s no exact date of its launch, we can anticipate its arrival in the coming weeks.

The Realme GT Neo2 was launched back in September in India with specs like a 6.62-inch FHD+ AMOLED display. It sports a 120Hz refresh rate and Corning Gorilla Glass protection. It has a triple camera system with a 64MP main lens, an 8MP ultra-wide sensor, and lastly a 2MP macro sensor. Upfront, it has a 16MP selfie shooter.

Under the hood, the GT Neo2 is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 octa-core SoC paired with up to 12GB of LPDDR5 RAM and 256GB of UFS 3.1 internal storage. It packs a 5,000mAh battery and has a 65W fast charging support.

Besides launching its Realme GT 2 series tonight, Realme has also launched a Dragon Ball Z limited edition of its very popular flagship killer, the Realme GT Neo2, today in China as well.

Design-wise, the new Dragon Ball Z limited edition equips the Realme GT Neo2 with a glass back design with an orange matte finish, with matte blue stripes and blue metal side rails. The design is very reminiscent of the overalls that the main character of the shonen anime, Goku, was wearing during his battles against evils.

Next to the camera island, is the Japanese Kanji character, “悟”, meaning “wisdom” or “enlightenment”. It is a signature symbol of Goku throughout the show, signifying the wisdom he gained after completing his intensive training onboard his spaceship on his way to Namek.

Besides just customizing the packaging with the Dragon Ball Z theme, Realme has also gone the further mile by including a custom-designed sim card pin that resembles the fourth Dragon Ball in the box, as well as including exclusive stickers and artwork in the box too. Dragon Ball fans and collectors would be overjoyed to hear that the artwork showcases Goku’s battle highlights in the Dragon Ball Z series in a small, compact, and eye-catching card-shaped form factor.

As for software customizations, when you power up the Realme GT Neo2, you’ll be greeted with the anime’s main character: Goku on your lock screen! The theme continues on with the custom icon packs as well, as each home screen app icon displayed on-screen will resemble the 8 dragon balls collected in the series.

Last, not but least, Realme has customized the charging animation as well. The 65W SuperDart charging(which can get you from 0% to 100% in under an hour) animation has been replaced with a 65W “Super Saiyan” charging animation, a reference to Goku going Super Saiyan to recharge his energy when he was at his lowest in terms of power.

As for the specs of the Realme GT Neo2 Dragon Ball Z limited edition, there has been no change in specs to the normal Realme GT Neo2. It still sports the same Snapdragon 870, 120Hz E4 Samsung AMOLED and a giant 5000mAh battery.

The Realme GT Neo2 Dragon Ball Z limited edition will retail officially for 2999 RMB (~$472), and on its first sale on January 7, 12AM CST, it will be on sale for 2699 RMB (~$425).
