As of now, the company has not shared the specifications for the phone.

Vice President of Realme and President of Global Marketing, Xu Qi Chase, shared an image of the Realme GT Master Edition on Weibo showing the leather back design in the style of a suitcase. It can be seen sporting a triple rear camera setup with three vertically aligned sensors with the pill shaped flash located next to the top sensor. The grey back curves at the edges and the Realme branding and designer Naoto Fukasawa's signature.

The company also revealed the Realme GT Master Edition will be unveiled on July 21 and more details about the models can be expected in the coming days.
