Realme's GT 8 series will debut in China on October 21, and anticipation has been building rapidly for its arrival. Now, Realme has shared key information regarding their flagship model – Realme GT 8 Pro 5G – including larger battery capacity, faster charging speeds and design upgrades over last year's model.
Realme GT 8 Pro: Battery and Charging
Realme GT 8 Pro comes equipped with an impressive 7,000mAh battery – an upgrade over its predecessor's 6,500mAh cell. Fast 120W wired charging and 50W wireless charging support it, plus bypass charging to minimise heat when playing games or streaming media content.

Realme claims their GT 8 Pro can be charged up to 50% in 15 minutes using its included 120W adapter, making it faster than its predecessor (GT 7 Pro), which has a thickness of about 8.2mm versus the latter's thickness of just under 3 mm.
Display and Performance
Up front, users are treated to a 6.78-inch flat OLED screen with 2K resolution and an ultra-fast 144Hz refresh rate for buttery smooth visuals. The phone comes with an under-display ultrasonic fingerprint sensor and runs Realme UI 7 based on Android 16.
Under the hood, it is powered by Qualcomm’s newest flagship Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen5 processor and R1 GPU for better performance. It’s likely to ship with as much as 16GB RAM and 1TB storage which means productivity and speed will be at the top level.
Camera and Design
The GT 8 Pro will feature a Ricoh-certified 1/1.56” 50MP main sensor with OIS, alongside a 50MP ultra-wide and a 200MP periscope snapper that is expected to utilize Samsung’s HP5 technology. It will also be able to capture 4K video at 120fps with Dolby Vision.

What to Expect
Realme GT 2 Pro features a killer combination of power, design innovation and camera versatility – expect it to be one of the most feature-packed Android flagships of 2025.
