Realme GT 6T, Realme’s first GT phone in two years, is here and after testing it, we have only good things to say about it. Be sure to check out our full Realme GT 6T review to get all the deets—pros, cons, what have you—on whether (or not) this new GT phone is for you. Right out of the gate, this is a performance-driven phone and so, it’s packing the goods accordingly. The chip, the cooling, even the display is made for multimedia consumption, whether it be gaming or content streaming.
Despite being such a spec-heavy phone, the Realme GT 6T doesn’t cost a bomb, as you might expect. The base variant with 8GB RAM and 128GB storage costs only Rs 30,999. The top-of-the-line 12GB/512GB variant will set you back by Rs 39,999. It’s a lot of phone for a lot less money and we expect it to fly off the shelves especially with the bevy of bundled offers that Realme is offering. But we’ll see about that. The Realme GT 6T is soon to get tough competition from the Poco F6, its ticket to fame being the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 processor. We’ll have that comparison ready as soon as Poco announces the phone so stay tuned.
But for now, here’s a quick rundown on the Realme GT 6T’s top specs, features, and more:
- Design: The back of the phone is made of glass with a mix of glossy and matte bits that give it a very distinct character. Like it or not, you can’t ignore this phone, that’s for certain.
