India Today
The Realme GT 2 Pro was launched for the first time in China back in January and made its international debut at the Mobile World Congress in February.
Realme GT 2 Pro launch in India will take place by the end of March, Madhav Sheth, CEO of Realme India, told India Today Tech. The GT 2 Pro, which is the company’s first ultra-premium phone, is already available in China and Europe and is about to arrive in Indonesia.
Sheth said that Realme is planning to launch the GT 2 Pro flagship sometime towards the end of March. But if not in March, the launch will happen in early April. The GT 2 Pro was launched for the first time in China back in January and made its international debut at the Mobile World Congress in February.
The Realme GT 2 Pro is the company’s most expensive phone. It costs CNY 3,899 in China, while its European price is EUR 449. Sheth did not say anything about the Indian price of the phone, but we can take a guess based on its price in the countries where it is available. The Chinese price converts to roughly Rs 46,600, while the Indian equivalent to the European price would be around Rs 55,000. Realme usually keeps Indian prices of its phones close to their Chinese prices. We can expect the phone to start at around Rs 45,000, if not more.
The Realme GT 2 Pro comes with top-end features. The GT 2 Pro comes with a 6.7-inch Samsung OLED LTPO display with a resolution of 3216x1440 pixels. The display supports "adaptive refresh rate", which is a feature that allows the screen to adjust the refresh rate according to the content on it. The Corning Gorilla Glass Victus protects the display that supports a peak brightness of 1400 nits.
Powering the GT 2 Pro is an octa-core Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor, paired with up to 12GB of RAM and 512GB of storage. Realme said the cooling area inside the GT 2 Pro is constructed with an all-new 9-layer cooling structure with a 4129 sq mm “Stainless Steel VC” area. The phone uses Android 12-based Realme UI 3.0.
The 50-megapixel Sony IMX766 flagship sensor on the Realme GT 2 Pro will appeal to photography enthusiasts. Creators will appreciate the support for optical image stabilisation. There is a second 50-megapixel ultra-wide-angle camera with a field of view of 150 degrees, and a 3-megapixel microscope camera with 40X magnification. For selfies, there is a 32-megapixel camera inside the display’s punch-hole. The phone has a 5000mAh battery with support for 65W fast charging.
