Realme GT Neo 2 Announced in China
Starting with the design, GT Neo 2 comes with a design similar to its predecessor. However, the camera module at the back, unlike the first-gen Realme GT Neo, appears to have the same color as the back panel.
The device boasts a 6.6-inch Full HD+ Samsung E4 AMOLED panel with support for a 120Hz refresh rate and a whopping 600Hz touch sampling rate. It has a peak brightness of 1,300 nits and a punch-hole cutout to house the 16MP selfie snapper. As for the cameras on the back, Realme GT Neo 2 packs a triple-camera module at the back. This includes a primary 64MP sensor, an 8MP ultra-wide lens with a 119-degree FOV, and a 2MP macro shooter.
Under the hood, the device is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 5G chipset, which is a higher-binned version of the Snapdragon 865 SoC and the only smartphone processor in the market that goes up to 3.2GHz speed. It is coupled with up to 12GB of RAM and up to 256GB of internal storage.
Now, coming to one of the key features of the Realme GT Neo 2 – thermals. The 8-layer, 3D heat dissipation system onboard is designed to keep the device cool during demanding tasks such as gaming or video editing.
