realme is gearing up to launch the GT 8 series in its home market. Ahead of the lineup’s official debut, the brand has been revealing some of the details on the GT 8 Pro through teasers on Weibo. After announcing features like a 2K display and a 200MP periscope telephoto lens, the company has confirmed another detail regarding the upcoming flagship phone.
In a recent post on the Chinese social media platform, realme vice president Chase Xu explained that the GT 8 Pro will feature a detachable camera module, allowing the user to customise the design. The teaser includes a choice of three different shapes, namely the typical square and circle, plus a more quirky option that resembles a robot face.
This reveal certainly clears up some of the confusion surrounding the design of the realme GT 8 Pro, as previous leaks contained conflicting information on the camera bump’s appearance. At first, a live image depicting a square module surfaced. Not long after that, the device was seen sporting a circular housing for the rear cameras. And of course, prominent leakster Digital Chat Station shared yet another design for the phone.
Aside from this swappable camera island, realme has also confirmed that the GT 8 Pro will pack a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5. The smartphone will also be debuting on our shores, but as of now it is uncertain when exactly it will be arriving here.
