The Realme GT 5 Pro is already confirmed to run on Qualcomm’s new Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC. The new mobile chipset and Realme’s computing framework is said to offer 10 percent better power efficiency and up to 44 percent faster frame processing in the new device.

Realme has disclosed a few specifications of the Realme GT 5 Pro recently. It is confirmed to ship with 1TB of storage and a BOE-made display is teased to offer 3,000 nits of peak brightness. The handset is confirmed to offer improved heat dissipation technology with a surface area of around 10,000mm square and an upgraded telephoto camera.

As per a recent TENAA listing, the Realme GT 5 Pro will have a 6.78-inch (1,264×2,780 pixels) AMOLED display. It could be offered in 8GB, 12GB, and 16GB RAM options along with 128GB, 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB inbuilt storage options. The phone is said to have a triple rear camera unit. For selfies, it might get a 32-megapixel sensor at the front.

The Realme GT 5 Pro is tipped to come with a 5,400mAh battery with support for 100W wired charging and 50W wireless charging.
