Design and display

Focus on speed, Realme GT Neo 3 features a racing stripe design on the back. The company claims that the design is an embodiment of speed and performance and is a reference to an epic rivalry between two automakers in one of the oldest endurance races during the 60s. The design surely offers a different feeling to the users.

Realme GT Neo 3 features a glass front, a plastic frame and a glass back. The back of the phone is carved out of a piece of matte AG glass with a beautiful contour. Similarly, the smooth surface also helps in reducing glares and minimises fingerprints. There is a rounded, rectangular-shaped camera module on the back panel, which stands out of the panel and makes the phone wobble when placed on a rectangular surface.

The phone weighs lightly at 188 grams and is 8.2mm thick. It is available in sprint white and nitro blue colours.

The phone has an under-display optical fingerprint sensor for biometrics while there are no official IP ratings.

Realme GT Neo 3 runs on Realme UI 3.0 based on Android 12. The phone is powered by MediaTek Dimensity 8100 (5nm) chipset while the graphical duties are handled by Mali-G610 MC6. Focusing on the gaming community, this phone features Realme’s GT Mode 3.0, which enhances the gaming performance of the phone. Also, the chipset on the phone allows for longer battery life and the users can enjoy prolonged gaming sessions. Similarly, there are also stainless steel vapour cooling system max features on the phone, which is 26% larger than its predecessor’s and reduces the temperature of core areas by up to 19 degrees Celcius.

The battery is not something that this phone can brag about, but what it can is its 150W fast-charging system that can charge the phone up to 50% in just 5 minutes. This is also the fastest charger on a smartphone. Power should not be a problem as the battery on the phone is durable as well.
