Realme Pakistan launches ‘Realme GT 7 Series’ in Paris – A Flagship Challenger with Power, Style & a Few Downsides
After a long silence, Realme is back in the flagship race — and this time, it’s serious.
The Realme GT 7 Series has officially launched in Paris, France, making waves with its premium design, powerhouse specs, and aggressive pricing. But before you hit that Buy Now button, here’s a breakdown of what makes this phone a serious contender — and where it still needs work.
Why You Might Fall in Love with the Realme GT 7 Series/ GT 7 Pro
Flagship Power at a Lower Price
Packing the Snapdragon 8 Elite, up to 16GB RAM, and UFS 4.0 storage, this phone is a performance beast. Games like Genshin Impact run flawlessly at 120fps with AI-enhanced graphics. It’s built for gamers, multitaskers, and power users alike.
Battery That Just Won’t Quit
The 7,000mAh Titan battery (on the Chinese variant) lasted over 27 hours in testing and charges to nearly 100% in just 30 minutes with 120W SuperVOOC. Realme claims even the slightly smaller 5,800mAh Indian variant charges fully in just half an hour.
A Design That Finally Grows Up
Gone are the flashy, gamer-centric looks. The GT 7 Pro adopts a mature, refined design with a curved AMOLED display, IP69 water/dust resistance (the highest currently available!), and even an underwater photography mode. Available in bold Mars Orange or elegant Galaxy Grey.
Stunning Display Performance
With a 6.78-inch AMOLED panel, 6,500 nits brightness, and Gorilla Glass 7i protection, this is one of the brightest, sharpest screens in its class. Samsung even co-developed the panel. Impressive!
Realme UI 6.0 – Lighter, Smoother, Smarter
Bloatware is minimal, and Android 15 brings a fresh feel. Realme promises 3 years of software updates and 4 years of security patches — a first for the brand in this segment.
But Wait – Here’s What You Should Consider Before Buying
Camera Could Be Better, Especially for Video
While the 50MP main and telephoto lenses do well in daylight, low-light performance is inconsistent, the ultrawide camera is underwhelming, and video recording tops out at average. No 4K support on ultrawide either.
AI Features Sound Impressive but Feel Half-Baked
From AI UnBlur to AI Eraser, Realme’s new AI suite is a good start, but the tools don’t match the quality you’ll find on Google Pixel or Samsung Galaxy phones. Expect some “hit or miss” results.
South East Asian Variant Gets a Smaller Battery
The Indian model only gets a 5,800mAh battery instead of 6,500mAh. Realme claims it still charges fully in 30 minutes, but you may not get the same battery life as the Chinese version.
No Wireless Charging
In 2025, this omission stings, especially when other flagships offer it as standard.
MediaBites Verdict: Should You Buy It?
If you’re hunting for flagship performance without the flagship price, the Realme GT 7 Pro is one of the best value-for-money smartphones right now. It delivers premium build, top-tier internals, impressive battery life, and a gorgeous display.
However, if camera quality or cutting-edge AI features are at the top of your list, you may want to look at the OnePlus 12 or wait for the OnePlus 13 or iQoo 13.
