Realme has introduced the new GT 7 Pro Racing Edition smartphone in China. This flagship device comes with slightly varied specifications compared to the standard model, particularly in camera, display, storage options, and battery size. Nonetheless, it shares the same powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite processor paired with an Adreno GPU, just like the regular Realme GT 7 Pro.
Variants and Camera Setup
The 5G-capable phone is available in several RAM and storage configurations: 12 GB + 256 GB, 12 GB + 512 GB, 16 GB + 256 GB, and 16 GB + 512 GB. In contrast to the standard version that features a triple rear camera system, the Racing Edition includes a dual rear camera setup. This consists of a 50 MP main camera with Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) and an 8 MP ultra-wide camera. Unfortunately, they removed the telephoto lens that was present on the GT 7 Pro. For selfies and video calls, there’s a front-facing 16 MP camera.
Display and Design Features
One of the key differences lies in the display. This flagship model sports a 6.78-inch 1.5K 8T LTPO micro quad-curved OLED screen that can reach a peak brightness of 6000 nits and offers a refresh rate of 120 Hz. The display covers the full 100% DCI-P3 color gamut and is Dolby Vision compatible. Additionally, it boasts an IP68 + IP69 rating for water and dust resistance and is available in two versions: Star Trail Titanium and Neptune Explorer Edition with blue finishes.
Battery and Software
Realme has equipped the GT 7 Pro Racing Edition with a substantial 6,500 mAh battery, which supports 120 W fast charging capabilities. However, wireless charging is not an option here. The device operates on Android 15 with Realme UI 6.0 pre-installed, but there’s currently no information on future software updates from the brand.
Other features include an in-display optical fingerprint sensor, high-resolution ultra-linear dual speakers with OReality audio, bypass charging capability, and an extensive 11,480 mm² dual-chamber vapor cooling system. In terms of dimensions, it measures 162.4 x 76.8 x 8.5 mm (approximately 6.39 x 3.02 x 0.33 inches) and weighs 218 grams (0.48 lbs).
The Realme GT 7 Pro Racing Edition is priced starting at CNY 3,099 (around $425/€405) for the basic 12 GB + 256 GB version, while the premium 16 GB + 512 GB model costs CNY 3,699 (about $550/€525). It is available for purchase in China through the official Realme China website and other authorized stores. However, there is no information yet on its release in global markets.
