Realme's battery monster GT 7 series gets official global launch date
Packed with a huge battery and sleek design, will this phone shake up the competition?
Realme's latest GT 7 series is making its way out of China and we now have a confirmed launch date. The company has announced that both the Realme GT 7 and GT 7T will be unveiled internationally on May 27 during an event in Paris, France.
The GT 7 will land in IceSense Black and IceSense Blue, while the GT 7T will come in a bold yellow finish.
One of the standout features is the IceSense Graphene cooling system, which Realme says offers better heat dissipation than traditional copper setups. According to the brand, it can reduce the chipset temperature by up to 6°C with full 360-degree thermal coverage.
On the camera front, expect a 50 MP dual rear setup and a 16 MP front snapper. Under the hood, it will likely be rocking the Dimensity 9300+ chipset, paired with 12 GB or 16 GB of RAM, and storage options of 256 GB, 512 GB or even 1 TB.
In China, pricing starts at around $355, but don't be surprised if the global pricing is higher. We will have to wait for the Paris event to know just how much more.
If you are shopping around for a new mid-range Android phone, the GT 7 series isn't your only option. The OnePlus 13s (which is going global soon, too) will pack the new Snapdragon 8 Elite chip, the same powerhouse found in the Galaxy S25 series. And if battery life is your top priority without breaking the bank, Motorola's new Edge 60 Pro is also worth a look – it just launched and sits in a similar price range.
On May 27th, Paris sets the stage for the #PowerThatNeverStops.

Realme has already flipped the switch on the GT 7's official product page – at least in India – but it doesn't show any real specs yet. Still, since these phones are already available in China, we've got a pretty solid idea of what is coming. While there may be a few regional tweaks, the core specs should stay the same.
So, what are we looking at? A 6.78-inch full-HD+ OLED display with a buttery smooth 144Hz refresh rate, for starters. It is powered by a massive 7,200mAh battery, which is way bigger than what you will find in most phones today. You also get IP69 water and dust resistance, which puts it a step above the usual mid-range durability.
