According to a tipster known as Smart Pikachu, the Realme GT Neo 7 is set to launch sooner than many people thought. The Neo 6 was introduced by the company in May this year and is seen as an affordable flagship smartphone that uses the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 processor. According to the Weibo tipster, the new version will have the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 Leading Version instead.
Performance Insights
This is the same chipset that has been leading the AnTuTu flagship rankings for a while now. Nubia was the first brand to release smartphones with this overclocked version of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, and their RedMagic 9S Pro+ has managed to maintain the top spot in AnTuTu's monthly rankings recently.
Future Competition
Nevertheless, it's unlikely that the Realme GT Neo 7 will take the lead in the AnTuTu rankings right after its launch, as the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 and Dimensity 9400 are expected to arrive soon. These new processors are anticipated to offer a significant boost in performance. If this is true, upcoming flagship models with these next-gen chipsets will likely show a considerable improvement in benchmark scores.
Display and Battery Features
In addition to the processor, Smart Pikachu also mentioned that the GT Neo 7 will have a 1.5K "gaming" flat screen. The tipster did not go into detail about the specifications, but the term "gaming" might suggest that the display will support a 144 Hz refresh rate. There are also rumors that it will come equipped with a large battery along with support for 100W fast charging.
