“How much hardware do you want?” “Yes”. Realme has officially announced its new flagship GT5. At Xataka we recently had the opportunity to test the Realme GT3, which promises to reach the European market and will remain in its home country for reasons yet to be confirmed.

Presented in China and with some promising international arrival, the new model comes in gorgeous configurations with lots of equipment. 24GB RAM and 1TB internal memory, 240 charges and Qualcomm’s best processor. This is Realme GT5.

Two models, two twins

Realme GT5 comes in two models. The first and most striking of these, 240W charging. It promises to reach 50% of its capacity in just seven minutes, and the main sacrifice of such fast charging is that its milliamp hours are “only” 4,600 mAh. The 150W version goes up to 5,240mAh and the truth is, batteries with less fast charging tend to have higher capacity.

Internal memory configurations also vary. We are talking about the 240W model. 1TB + 24GB RAMinsane capabilities for users who want the most hardware that can be bought on an Android. The processor, of course, is the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, which is Qualcomm’s best SoC so far this year.

The screen is 6.74 inches, 1.5K resolution and a high refresh rate of 144 Hz. The peak brightness of 1,400 nits seems more than adequate, and a high PWM of 2,160 Hz is promised to save us from visual fatigue.

The photo-level offering comes with a Sony-signed main sensor with a resolution of 50 megapixels. The other two sensors, the 8-megapixel ultra-wide-angle and 2-megapixel macro, don’t seem to bother the high end.
