Realme already has a strong presence in the budget and mid-range segment of the Indian smartphone market and now, it has launched the new Realme GT 6, which is directed towards the premium segment buyers. Starting at a price of ₹35,999, the phone comes with the latest Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 chipset, a 5,500mAh battery, fast charging and of course, AI features.

Let’s find out more about the phone and see what it offers to its target group!

The Realme GT 6 bears a striking resemblance to its more affordable sibling - the GT 6T, sharing similar curved edges on the display and a familiar rear camera module arrangement. However, Realme has made subtle yet significant upgrades that elevate the GT 6’s premium feel.

The new GT 6 comes with a glass body that not only enhances the visual appeal but also contributes to a more luxurious in-hand feel. The rear panel is divided into two distinct sections: a mirror-like area housing the camera module and a larger portion with a cloudy finish. While the mirror section serves a dual purpose as a handy pocket mirror, it’s also a magnet for fingerprints and smudges. The cloudy finish on the rest of the panel does a better job of hiding these marks, but regular cleaning will still be necessary if you want a pristine look.

On the front, the curved display is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2, offering robust protection against scratches and accidental drops. It also has IP65 water and dust resistance, for users concerned about accidental splashes or dusty environments. An under-display fingerprint scanner is conveniently placed towards the bottom of the screen. In testing, it proved to be both fast and reliable, rarely failing to recognize registered fingerprints.

In ports and buttons, you can find the power and volume buttons on the right side of the frame. The bottom edge houses a speaker grille and a USB Type-C port, while an infrared transmitter sits at the top, allowing the phone to double as a remote control for various household appliances.
