Realme is launching the GT Neo5 with 240W charging on February 9, and it is already gearing up for the event with a series of teasers. An 8-second trailer showcased the camera design, confirming three shooters on a square island, and what appears to be a purple LED light on the side.
The brand also shared details about the
fast charging. It will involve a GaN adapter and 12A cable, with three separate
charge pumps for the 10-cell design. TUV Rheinland certified the battery to be
safe, and Realme claimed 30 seconds of charge will be enough for 2 hours of
talk time. Also, the battery is said to complete 1,600 full charge and
discharge cycles without losing more than than 20% of its capacity, which is
twice the industry standard of 800 cycles.
The phone is expected to have a 50MP main
camera with a Sony IMX890 sensor and OIS. It could be powered by a Snapdragon
8+ Gen 1 chipset, although rumors suggested a Dimensity 8200 is also in the
works for a cheaper alternative with “slower” 150W charging. There is more than
a week until the official launch, and we expect Realme to post more teasers in
the days leading to the event.
