Realme has finally announced the availability of its new smartphone the GT Neo 3 in India. The phone comes with a race-track inspired design, a new and powerful MediaTek Dimensity 8100 SoC and a 150W charging support.
The phone was introduced to the international markets at the MWC 2022 in February. It now makes its way to India along with the Realme Pad Mini, Buds Q2s and a couple of Realme smart TVs.
The Realme GT Neo 3 is a successor to the Realme GT Neo 2 that debuted last year and carries the same formula of a powerful yet affordably priced gaming-focused phone. It is launched in India in a couple of flavours. The company has introduced the standard version that comes with 80W fast charging and packs a 5000 mAh battery pack while the second variant comes with 150W fast charging and a 4500 mAh battery pack.
The phone will be available in three colour variants (Blue, White and Black) and will start retailing in India from May 4 on Realme’s official website, Flipkart and other partner stores. The pricing can be found below
| RAM/Storage | 80W charging (5000 mAh battery) | 150W charging (4,500 mAh battery) |
|---|---|---|
| 8/128 GB | Rs. 36,999 | NA |
| 12/256 GB | Rs. 38,999 | Rs. 42,999 |
As a launch offer, the phone will be available with an upfront discount of Rs. 7000 on SBI cards (Credit, debit and EMI transactions). The same discount is also available on Realme.com for ICICI bank cards.
Talking about the features and specifications of the phone, the Realme GT Neo 3 is the first device with the brand’s new UltraDart Charging Architecture (UDCA). According to Realme, this technology will help the phone charge from zero to 50 per cent in just 5 minutes.
For a brand that has been making phones with up to 65W charging support, introducing a phone with 150W charging is indeed a massive step. And the company says that the phone ships with improved thermal management and battery protection tech which ensures that the users can enjoy the device without any worry.
Talking about the core features, the Realme GT Neo 3 comes with a 6.7-inch FHD+ AMOLED display coupled with a 120Hz refresh rate and 1000Hz touch sampling rate.
It is powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 8100 SoC and is the first phone in India to do so. The recently launched OnePlus 10R, which is a rebranded version of GT Neo 3, has a Dimensity 8100-Max SoC.
The phone comes with a 4500 mAh battery pack and 150W UltraDart charting tech while the standard variant of the phone comes with a 5000 mAh battery and 80W fast charging.
The phone sports a triple rear camera setup including a 50MP primary Sony IMX766 snapper with OIS, an 8MP ultra-wide-angle snapper, and a 2MP macro snapper. At the front, the smartphone rocks a 16MP shooter for the sake of selfies and video calls.
