realme has officially launched its GT 7 Pro flagship smartphone in China. As confirmed by the brand’s local branch today, it is also set to debut in Malaysia later this month, becoming the first device in the local market to be equipped with the new Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset.
As per its launch in China, the realme GT 7 Pro offers a completely new design. Unlike its predecessor, the rear triple camera array is now housed within a square island, while the rear case features a matte metallic finish in either black and white colours. A third orange option with marbled effect, dubbed the Mars Design Edition, is also available.
Display-wise, the GT 7 Pro comes with 6.78-inch LTPO AMOLED panel with 1264 x 2780 px resolution, 120Hz refresh rate, 6,000 nits peak brightness, 1 billion colours, HDR and Dolby Vision support, Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2 protection, and an ultrasonic under-display fingerprint sensor. Additionally, it features stereo speakers, a USB-C port, as well as dual-band WiFi, Bluetooth 5.4 and NFC connectivity.
Under its hood is the aforementioned Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, which is paired together with up to 16GB of RAM and up to 1TB of UFS 4.0 storage. Its battery has a large capacity of 6,500mAh, and supports 120W fast charging via USB-C.
For imaging, the realme GT 7 Pro’s triple camera array consists of a 50MP primary with OIS, a 50MP telephoto with up to 3x optical periscope zoom, and an 8MP ultra-wide. Meanwhile, housed within the punch-hole cutout on its display is a 16MP selfie camera. During the presentation earlier, realme also showcased the phone’s photography capabilities under water, which is made possible by its IP68+IP69 rating.
