Highlights
- Realme GT 7 Pro confirmed for India launch by VP Chase Xu.
- Global launch scheduled before the end of 2024.
- Successor to the rumoured GT 6 Pro, which may launch in October.
- GT 6 series to feature novel battery tech and curved display.
Realme has now officially confirmed that its GT 7 Pro flagship smartphone will be coming to India later this year.
The confirmation comes from the horse’s mouth, i.e., Chase Xu, Vice President of Realme, when he was asked on social media.
On being asked why the brand did not bring the GT 5 Pro to India, Xu replied, “this year, we will launch GT7 Pro in India.”
He said that GT 7 Pro will have a global launch before the end of 2024.
For the India Launch, It’s a Waiting Game
While comments from Xu only confirm that GT 7 Pro is bound to come to India, Indian consumers will have to wait till the end of the year for the actual launch to happen.
No details about the device’s specifications or pricing were shared.
Interestingly, the naming of the GT 7 Pro would suggest that it is a successor to a yet-to-be-announced GT 6 Pro.
That’s a bit confusing to say the least.
According to rumours, the GT 6 Pro might be launched closer to October and may bring a large 6,000mAh battery and the upcoming Snapdragon 8 Gen 4.
GT 6 With Novel Battery Tech
Besides the GT 6 Pro, Realme also works on the standard GT 6 flagship.
It’s tipped to boast new-gen silicon negative electrode batteries of a high-energy density paired with 100W fast charging.
There are also rumors of a curved display.
The naming strategy for Realme’s upcoming GT series flagships is a bit confusing, as the successors seem to be announced before the predecessors.
The brand will likely be able to share more concrete details and a clearer roadmap for such launches in the coming months.
Heating Up the Competition
With the GT 7 Pro, Realme is trying to strengthen its flagship offerings and lock horns with other brands such as OnePlus, Samsung, and Xiaomi in the premium smartphone segment of India.
Aggressive pricing of the GT series could give Realme the benefit over competitors when it eventually arrives.
