The Realme GT7 Pro packs a powerful Snapdragon 8 Elite processor but faces overheating issues during intensive tasks. The phone reached temperatures as high as 48 degrees Celsius (~116 degrees Fahrenheit) in stress tests. However, it performed well in real-world usage like gaming.
The GT7 Pro boasts a 6,500mAh battery that delivers up to two days of moderate use. The 120W adapter fully recharges the phone in just 37 minutes. The 6.78-inch OLED screen offers a 120Hz refresh rate and high brightness for easy viewing in sunlight.
Design-wise, the phone has a sturdy aluminum frame, thin profile, and glass back. It is IP68/69 rated for dust and water resistance. The camera setup includes a 50MP main camera, 50MP 3x telephoto lens, and 8MP ultrawide camera.
The main camera captures detailed images but can be oversaturated.

The ultrawide and telephoto lenses struggle in less than ideal conditions.
The GT7 Pro lacks wireless charging, a feature found in some cheaper phones. The Indian variant has a smaller 5,800mAh battery compared to the 6,500mAh in other regions. It ships with realme UI 6 based on Color OS 15.
The phone brings high performance and practical features but has some compromises. Heating issues, mixed camera performance, and no wireless charging may deter some buyers. But it remains a strong affordable flagship contender.
The GT7 Pro is a Black Friday special for its 2024 global release. It is €999.99 (~$1,047) on Amazon Germany with 12GB RAM and 256GB storage. A deal reduces the price to around €799 (~$838).
The Indian version starts at INR 59,999 (~$712) after a INR 10,000 (~$119) discount.
