Realme GT Neo 3: charges to 50 percent in 5 minutes with 150 watts Charger
Realme is also launching the GT Neo 3 series, which has already been presented for China, in Germany after the general launch in Europe was announced yesterday. The GT Neo 3 is also available in a 150-watt version that charges to 50 percent in 5 minutes. Dragon Ball Z fans will get their money’s worth with the GT Neo 3T. Realme, which belongs to BBK Electronics but has its own development department, is the first company in this country to offer a smartphone with 150 watts of fast charging.
The charging technology called “150W UltraDart” could charge a 4,500 mAh battery divided into two cells to 50 percent in just 5 minutes. Nevertheless, Realme confirms that the GT Neo 3 has at least 80 percent remaining battery capacity after 1,600 full charge and discharge cycles. The industry standard for this value is usually only 800 cycles, Realme explains.
The 150-watt power adapter supplied by the manufacturer can handle not only its own UltraDart standard but also USB-PD including PPS (programmable power supply) and Qualcomm Quick Charge. The GT Neo 3 comes in two variants, including a model with “only” 80 watts, which reportedly does 50 percent in 12 minutes and offers 5,000 mAh in return.
Racing stripes or just black
The design of the GT Neo 3 is reminiscent of a racing car with its racing stripes. Nitro Blue has white stripes on a blue background, while Sprint White has black stripes on a white background. Realme underlines that it is the brand in the BBK Electronics range that wants to relate “speed” to the GT smartphones, not only in technology but also in design. The third color “Asphalt Black”, which is also matte, is less noticeable.
MediaTek Dimensity 8100
Positioned below the GT 2 Pro presented at the MWC, the GT Neo 3 is the first smartphone in Europe to use the MediaTek Dimensity 8100. The Dimensity 9000, which is one step faster, is so far only available in the Redmi K50 Pro in China.
MediaTek has the Dimensity 8100 manufactured by TSMC in 5 nm and equips the chip with four Cortex-A78 and Cortex-A55 cores each, reaching up to 2.85 and 2.0 GHz respectively, and uses an ARM Mali-G610 MC6 as GPU. In the 150-watt version of the smartphone, 12 GB LPDDR5 and 256 GB UFS 3.1 are paired with the SoC, while the 80-watt model has 8 GB/256 GB of the same standard.
50-megapixel camera with OIS
The display, camera, and other features are the same between the two variants. Realme uses a 6.7-inch AMOLED panel with 120 Hz, 100 percent DCI-P3 coverage, and Gorilla Glass 5. The primary camera uses the 1/1.56-inch Sony IMX766 with 50 megapixels and OIS.
Video recording is supported in up to 4K at 60 FPS. An ultra-wide angle camera shoots 8 megapixels at 120 degrees FoV, while a 2-megapixel macro lens works at close ranges up to 4cm. A 16-megapixel camera sits in a circular cutout in the smartphone’s screen for selfies.
GT Neo 3T with Snapdragon 870
Under the GT Neo 3, Realme positions the GT Neo 3T, which relies on the Snapdragon 870 – the final stage of the Snapdragon 865. The manufacturer combines the chip with 8 GB LPDDR4X and 128 or 256 GB UFS 3.1. In addition, the GT Neo 3T has a 6.62-inch AMOLED display with 120 Hz and 100 percent DCI-P3. The 5,000 mAh battery can be charged with 80 watts. For the triple camera, Realme uses 64 MP (wide angle), 8 MP (ultra wide angle), and 2 MP (macro).
Dragon Ball Z Special Edition
In addition to the colors “Dash Yellow”, “Drifting White” and “Shade Black”, the GT Neo 3T is available in a limited Dragon Ball Z special edition. In addition to the external customizations, Realme gives the smartphone its own background images and icons, playing cards, stickers, and customized packaging. The technology matches the GT Neo 3T.
