A recent alleged Geekbench listing showed the Realme GT 5G will have a variant with 12GB of RAM and run Android 11. An AnTuTu benchmark listing showed the phone carries model number RMX2202 and comes with 256GB of UFS 3.1 storage. Older leaks have suggested the Realme GT will feature a 6.8-inch (1,440x3,200 pixels) OLED display with 20:9 aspect ratio and come with support for 125W fast charging. However, the leak mentioned the phone will come with a 165Hz refresh rate but that seems to be incorrect.

With the Realme GT 5G launching today, all speculations will soon be laid to rest. The pricing and availability will also be shared at the event.
