realme has introduced its latest flagship phone in China, the realme GT5 Pro.
As expected, the realme GT5 Pro is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor, with up to 16GB of RAM and up to 1TB UFS 4.0 internal storage. The chipset is attached to a large 12,000mm2 vapor chamber for cooling.

On the front, there’s a large 6.78-inch AMOLED display with a 2.8K resolution, a high 144Hz refresh rate, an impressive 2,160Hz touch sampling rate for better responsiveness, and a ludicrous 4,500-nits of peak brightness.
There’s a punch-hole on top for the 32-megapixel selfie camera, while the bottom part is where you find the under-display fingerprint scanner.

On the back, we have a very elegant design with the Red Rock and Bright Moon colors using vegan leather material while the Starry Night with a textured glass finish.
Then, there’s the large camera island in the middle. It holds the 50-megapixel LYT-808 main sensor, the same one on the OnePlus 12. It is joined by a 50-megapixel IMX890 sensor with a periscope lens and a surprisingly low-resolution 8-megapixel ultra-wide.

Also like the OnePlus 12, the GT5 Pro has a relatively large 5,400mAh battery with a whopping 100W wired charging and an impressive 50W fast wireless charging.
Other notable inclusions are palm gestures, stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos, fancy vibration motors, and IP64-rated dust and water protection.

The realme GT5 Pro is now available for pre-order in China. The 12GB/256GB model has a price of CNY3,298 (~Php25,600), CNY3,598 (~Php27,900) for the 16GB/256GB, CNY3,898 (~Php30,200) for the 16GB/512GB, and CNY4,198 (~Php32,600) for the 16GB/1TB. Release details in the global market, as well as the Philippines, are yet to be known.
