Realme has officially unveiled its next-generation flagship, the Realme GT 8 Pro, in China. Set to launch globally on 20 November 2025, this smartphone combines top-tier performance, cutting-edge design, and an upgraded camera system developed in collaboration with Ricoh Imaging. With features like a 7,000mAh silicon-carbon battery, Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset, and a stunning LTPO AMOLED display, the GT 8 Pro stands out as one of the most powerful Android devices of the year.
🔹 Performance and Hardware
At its core, the Realme GT 8 Pro is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 (SM8850-AC) chipset built on a 3nm process. The octa-core CPU includes dual Oryon cores clocked up to 4.6GHz, ensuring lightning-fast processing for gaming, multitasking, and heavy applications.
It’s paired with Adreno 840 GPU and 12GB LPDDR5X RAM, offering flagship-level speed and efficiency. The device also provides 256GB UFS 4.1 storage, though it lacks expandable memory.
🔹 Display and Design
Realme has equipped the GT 8 Pro with a 6.79-inch LTPO AMOLED display featuring QHD+ (1440 x 3136 pixels) resolution. The screen delivers a 144Hz adaptive refresh rate and a peak brightness of 7000 nits, one of the highest in the industry.
The HDR10+ support and 90.8% screen-to-body ratio make it ideal for media consumption and gaming.
Design-wise, the phone features an eco-leather and glass fiber back, weighing 214 grams and measuring 8.3mm thick. It’s IP68/IP69 rated for water and dust resistance, offering full durability even in extreme conditions.
🔹 Camera: Co-engineered with Ricoh Imaging
One of the biggest highlights is Realme’s partnership with Ricoh Imaging to enhance photography performance.
The triple rear camera setup includes:
- 50MP (Wide, f/1.8) primary sensor
- 50MP (Ultra-wide, f/2.0) secondary lens
- 200MP (Periscope, f/2.6) telephoto sensor with 3x optical and 120x digital zoom
The system supports OIS, 8K video recording (7680×4320 @30fps), and Video HDR for professional-grade footage.
For selfies, there’s a 32MP front camera with 4K recording and screen flash support.
🔹 Battery and Charging
The 7,000mAh silicon-carbon battery is another standout feature, offering exceptional endurance.
It supports 120W Super Flash Charging, capable of charging 50% in just 15 minutes, and 50W wireless charging (full in 79 minutes). This makes it one of the fastest-charging large-battery phones on the market.
🔹 Connectivity and Features
The GT 8 Pro offers Dual 5G SIM, Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6.0, NFC, and USB Type-C audio output.
Security is handled by an ultrasonic in-display fingerprint sensor, while additional sensors include proximity, gyroscope, light, and compass.
Running on Android 16 with Realme UI, it promises 4 years of OS updates and 5 years of security patches.
