Display—2K LTPO AMOLED Brilliance

The GT 8 Pro is rumored to feature a 6.79-inch 2K LTPO AMOLED display with adaptive refresh rates ranging from 1Hz to 144Hz. The LTPO technology ensures buttery-smooth scrolling while saving battery when displaying static content.

Expected display features:

Camera—Co-engineered with Ricoh Imaging

The Realme GT 8 Pro’s biggest talking point is its Ricoh Imaging partnership. This collaboration, announced earlier this year, brings the legendary Ricoh GR camera expertise to smartphones for the first time.

The triple-camera setup is expected to include:

• 50MP Sony IMX890 main sensor with OIS
• 50MP ultrawide lens for landscapes

• Realistic color tones (GR Film & GR Mono)
• Natural bokeh effects
• Ultra-fast shutter response
• Optimized dynamic range

With these additions, Realme aims to challenge the likes of Xiaomi’s Leica collaboration and Oppo’s Hasselblad partnership in the imaging arena.

Battery & Charging—Big Power, Blazing Speed

Battery life has always been a strong suit for Realme’s GT series, and the GT 8 Pro is rumored to feature a massive 7000 mAh dual-cell battery.

• 0–100% charge in around 20 minutes
• 50% in just 10 minutes
• Support for 50W wireless charging (select variants)

Despite the large battery, Realme is expected to keep the phone slim thanks to improved battery density tech.

For gamers, Realme is adding an upgraded “GT Mode 5.0” that automatically boosts frame rates and touch sensitivity during intense gaming sessions.

It will also include:

• Vapor Cooling System Max 2.0
• AI frame rate stabilization
• Ultra Haptics engine for immersive vibration feedback

This combination ensures the GT 8 Pro can handle demanding titles like BGMI, COD Mobile, and Genshin Impact at max graphics settings without overheating.

Audio, Design & Build Quality

The Realme GT 8 Pro will feature:

• Dual stereo speakers tuned for Dolby Atmos
• Hi-Res Audio certification
• Metal mid-frame with glass back finish

Leaked images show a rectangular camera island with Ricoh branding and a satin-finish back panel available in Black Titanium, Desert Gold, and Electric Blue.

Weight is expected around 198 grams, giving it a premium yet manageable hand feel.

Software & Features

Out of the box, the Realme GT 8 Pro will ship with Android 16 and Realme UI 7.0. The UI is expected to include several AI-driven features and customization tools.

Top software features:

• AI Smart Loop: Suggests actions based on screen content.
