Realme started March with the release of its first 2021 flagship, the Realme GT. However, the Snapdragon 888-powered smartphone will not be the only “flagship” coming from Realme this month. The company is ready to unveil a new powerful smartphone dubbed Realme GT Neo. Instead of Qualcomm’s high-tier chipset, the phone will have MediaTek’s high-tier chipset, the Dimensity 1200 chip. The phone will also come with a capable 64MP camera. The big difference is that it probably will be cheaper than the original Realme GT. The Neo will be unveiled tomorrow in China, and a few hours ahead of the launch the device has paid a visit to GeekBench Benchmark.

The listing also confirms the Realme GT Neo as the RMX3031 smartphone and Android 11 straight out of the box. Worth mentioning that Android 11 also means confirms the company’s Realme UI 2.0.
