Realme will launch its Realme GT 3 phone globally during Mobile World Congress today - Tuesday, 28 February 2023.

It is effectively a rebadged version of the Realme GT Neo 5, as released in China this month, and so will sport the 240W ultrafast charging capabilities too.

Here are all the details and what we're expecting to see.

What to expect

Not only has Realme released a few teaser videos ahead of the launch, with the one about its 240W fast charging being particularly interesting, there is every indication that the Realme GT 3 is actually a rebadged global version of the Realme GT Neo 5 launched in China earlier in February.

It certainly looks the same from the rear, with an identical camera unit with three camera lenses inside two circular cutouts, and the unique LED light element.

That means it will more than likely have 50-megapixel main, 8-megapixel ultra-wide, and 2-megapixel macro cameras on the back, and a 15-megapixel snapper on the front. The display will be 6.7-inches and AMOLED, with a 1.5K resolution and an adaptive refresh rate of 144Hz.

We don't know yet whether Realme will choose a different processor for the global GT 3, but if it sticks to the one in the GT Neo 5, it'll be a Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 rather than the newer, more powerful Gen 2. We'll find out shortly.
