Realme announces $725 GT2 Pro flagship with ‘bio-based polymer’ design

The GT2 Pro is Realme's latest flagship phone and the followup to last year's impressive GT. It is difficult to disagree with the assessment that it is the most premium flagship ever by Realme.

The headline feature of the GT2 Pro is how it looks. The GT2 Pro is Realme's first phone to be made with a bio-based polymer, which the company claims reduces carbon emissions by more than 30 percent.

The paper green model I've been using feels coarse to the touch and doesn't pick up fingerprints, which is a 888-609- 888-609- 888-609- 888-609- 888-609- 888-609- 888-609- 888-609- 888-609- 888-609- 888-609- 888-609- 888-609- 888-609- 888-609- 888-609- 888-609- 888-609- 888-609- 888-609- 888-609- 888-609- 888-609- 888-609- 888-609- 888-609- 888-609- 888-609- 888-609- 888-609- 888-609- 888-609- 888-609- I can't speak to Realme's environmental claims, but I think it looks great and feels better than plastic.

The camera system is very similar to last year's flagship Oppo Find X3 Pro. The main camera has the same IMX766 sensor as the ultrawide one, but it uses a smaller sensor. The results are quite distorted, and Realme leans into this by exaggerating the distortion even further for a dedicated fisheye mode that captures circular images. There is a third lens in the camera array that is similar to the Find X3 Pro. There isn't a telephoto camera of any kind.

The GT2 Pro has an 8 Gen 1 processor, up to 12GB of RAM, and up to 512GB of storage. The screen has a smaller chin than the previous GT. There is a 5.000mAh battery that can be fast-charged up to 65W, but there is no wireless charging, which is something that would hold me back from ranking this as a flagship phone.

The Realme GT2 Pro costs $725 in Europe. Realme is releasing a non-Pro version of the GT2 with a less extreme ultra wide angle lens, and a more conventional macro lens, with prices starting at 500.
