Today, the brand launched the device in the Indian market. It’s been quite some time since we have seen a flagship Realme smartphone in the Indian market. The GT 7 Pro has launched in the Indian market as the country’s first phone with a Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset.
This is a premium flagship from the brand hence, the design is premium. The phone has an aluminum frame and a glass back. It is IP68 and IP69-certified and has stereo speakers. The camera module on the rear houses an IR blaster. On the front, the phone has a micro-quad-curved display where the panel is flat but the glass on top is curved on all four sides.
The display is one of the highlights of this phone. It is the world’s first smartphone with a display featuring the Eco² OLED Plus technology.
