The popular Chinese manufacturer Realme has just announced a new gaming terminal with 5G connectivity in its native country: The Realme GT Neo . This phone is a more affordable version of the original Realme GT that was launched earlier this month, although that does not mean that it is not high-end, because if it is, it just makes use of MediaTek’s new Dimensity 1200 chip instead of the Qualcomm equivalent (Snapdragon 888) present in the original model.

The Realme GT Neo features a similar design to the standard GT. The only major differences between the design of these two devices are the finishes and the pattern of the back panel. Unlike the Realme GT which comes in glass and vegan leather options, the GT Neo appears to sport a plastic rear panel.

The screen is one of the greatest virtues of the terminal. It is a 6.43-inch Super AMOLED panel manufactured by Samsung, which not only offers an FHD + resolution (2,400 x 1,080 pixels), but also achieves a 120Hz refresh rate combined with a 360HZ touch sampling rate. . It is because of the elements mentioned above that the Realme GT Neo is advertised as a terminal suitable for gaming.

Speaking of gaming, it consists of the new Chip Dimensity 1200 , which makes its debut in this terminal. This chip, in addition to being powerful and innovative, is equipped with a liquid cooling system . The brand claims that this phone’s cooling solution can lower the core temperature by up to 15 ℃. Accompanying it we find 6GB / 8GB of RAM along with 128GB of internal storage, but a higher version that will be released in April gives us 12GB of RAM plus 256GB of ROM .

The set is supported by a 4,500mAh battery, which supports 50W fast charging . It should be noted that Realme includes a 65W charger in the package.

As far as connectivity is concerned, the phone supports 5G, WiFi 6, Bluetooth 5.1, GNSS (GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, GALILEO, QZSS) and NFC for contactless payments. For its part, the operating system could not be other than Android 11 with the company’s user interface (Realme UI 2.0).

Moving on to the photography realm, the phone has a triple camera setup consisting of a 64MP Sony IMX682 primary sensor , an 8MP sensor with a 119 ° ultra-wide lens, and a 2MP sensor with a macro lens. The selfie camera is not far behind and boasts a 16MP lens with f / 2.5 aperture.
