After exclusively launching its GT 7 smartphone in China last month, Realme has finally announced two global versions of the phone that feature a massive 7,000mAh battery: the GT 7 and the slightly cheaper GT 7T.
The GT 7 comes in black and blue color options and starts at €749.99 for 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. There’s also a limited Dream Edition of the GT 7, created in collaboration with the Aston Martin Formula One Team, configured with 16GB/512GB for €899.99. The GT 7T, available in an additional yellow color option, starts at €649.99 for a 12GB/256GB configuration. Both versions are now available for preorder through Realme’s website for the European and Indian markets.
Despite all that battery power, the GT 7 is just 8.3mm thick (the GT 7T is 8.25mm thick). For comparison, the iPhone 16 Pro is 8.25mm thick with a 3,582mAh battery, while the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra measures in at 8.2mm with only a 5,000mAh battery.
The Realme GT 7 is powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 9400e processor and features a 6.78-inch AMOLED display with a 2780 x 1264 pixel resolution, 120Hz refresh rate, and 6,000 nits of peak brightness. The phone’s 7,000mAh battery will keep it running for up to three days of light usage, claims Realme, or up to seven hours with intense gaming. There’s no wireless charging, but with its included 120W charger and a USB-C cable the GT 7 can be charged to 50 percent capacity in 14 minutes, while a full charge takes 40 minutes.
On the back of the GT 7 you’ll find a 50MP telephoto camera with 2x optical zoom capabilities, another 50MP camera with optical image stabilization, and an 8MP ultrawide shooter. On the front is a 32MP selfie camera, and an optical fingerprint scanner hidden beneath its display. The GT 7 offers IP69 dust and water resistance; supports Wi-Fi 7, NFC, and Bluetooth 5.4; and launches with Android 15. Realme promises four additional OS updates and six years of Android security updates.
The cheaper GT 7T is instead powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 8400-Max processor, and although it has a slightly larger 6.8-inch screen with a small bump in resolution, the display’s max brightness is limited to just 1,800 nits. The 7T variant also only features two cameras on the back, ditching the GT 7’s telephoto offering for just a 50MP main camera and a second 8MP option with a wide-angle lens.
