Realme GT 7 Pro: What do we know so far

Earlier reports suggest that the Realme GT 7 Pro may feature a Samsung-sourced quad micro-curved display with DC dimming. It is expected to include a 50-megapixel main camera alongside a periscope telephoto lens, though details about the latter remain unclear. Realme appears to be retaining an 8-megapixel ultra-wide sensor, similar to previous models, and may include a 50 MP front camera. This camera setup closely resembles that of the Realme 13 Pro+.

The device is anticipated to offer IP69 dust and water resistance, an in-display ultrasonic fingerprint sensor, and a sleek design with a thickness of approximately 9mm.

Additionally, the smartphone is rumoured to be powered by a 6,500mAh battery with 120W fast charging capabilities.

As a flagship device, it will be powered by the forthcoming Snapdragon 8 Elite (or Snapdragon 8 Gen 4) processor. The design is expected to be slightly different, featuring a square camera module that houses all the lenses and the flash.

The device is likely to feature a 6.78-inch 1.5K BOE X2 display with a punch-hole cutout and slim bezels.
