Realme GT 3 initial review: Quick, charge me up
Realme announced the global launch of the Realme GT 3 during Mobile World Congress, which is essentially the same device as the company's GT Neo 5 that launched earlier in February 2023 as a China exclusive.
The Realme GT 3 can charge your phone from flat to full in 9.5-minutes — we know, impressive right — but there's plenty more on offer here too. Here are our first impressions.
The Realme GT 3 has a lovely design that feels great to hold. There's a slight curve on the edges of the rear — which is finished in a material that is soft to touch — with both these elements contributing to how nice it sits in the hand.
At the top of the rear there is a rather prominent camera housing which takes up the top section of the device, but there are more than just camera sensors in this housing.
Alongside the camera module, the Realme GT 3 has a translucent window that shows off the platform running the show, an NFC chipset, and the Pulse Interface System with a C-shaped RGB light ring.
The Pulse Interface system will see the light ring within the window light up in various colours depending on your settings, and what's happening on your device — more on this in a minute.
At the bottom of the Realme GT 3, you'll find USB-C charging, alongside the SIM tray, while the left edge has the volume rocker and the right edge has the power button. Overall, it's not the slimmest phone out there at nearly 9mm, nor the lightest at nearly 200g, but the curved edges on the back certainly detract from this, while the finish and design on the whole is quite striking.
The Realme GT 3 has a 6.74-inch AMOLED display on the front that delivers a resolution of 2772 x 1240 pixels for a pixel density of 451ppi.
