Realme is gearing up for one of its biggest flagship launches yet, and the GT 8 Pro is shaping up to be a major leap forward for the brand. After teasers surfaced yesterday showcasing a bold new camera design, Realme has now confirmed some of the key hardware powering its next-generation device.
The headline feature is a 200MP periscope telephoto lens, marking the first time Realme has used such advanced camera hardware. While the company hasn’t revealed the exact sensor model, the move signals its push to compete directly with top-tier camera phones.
The GT 8 Pro will also deliver sharper visuals with a 2K display, a step up from the 1.5K resolution found on last year’s GT 7 Pro. Industry leaks suggest a 6.78-inch LTPO 8T AMOLED panel, promising vibrant colors and smoother refresh rates.
Realme is expected to equip the device with Qualcomm’s upcoming Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, paired with an 8,000 mAh battery designed for long-lasting performance. The top configuration will offer 16 GB of RAM, running Android 16 with Realme UI 7 out of the box.
The GT 8 Pro will not launch alone. Realme plans to introduce it alongside the standard GT 8, with both models set to make their debut in China next month.
