Announcement. Realme GT Neo 5 is a smartphone that fully charges in 10 minutes

Impressed. But before I start praising the Realme GT Neo 5, I'll say a word about the price. From ¥2499 (₽26300, $368) for 8+256 GB. In China, of course.

So. Realme GT Neo 5 is a mind-blowing smartphone with no weaknesses at all. But, above all, this is a smartphone with a record-breaking charging speed.

It will be released in two versions.Or charging faster, but the battery is a little smaller. Or vice versa. Either 4600mAh and 240W or 5000mAh and 150W. What is 240W? They promise that Realme GT Neo 5 will charge from zero to one hundred percent in about 570 seconds. Those. a little less than 10 minutes. Madness? Yes. As for me, 150 watts is already too much. But you can get into the Guinness Book of Records. By the way, a charger for all 240 W is included in the standard package. You don't have to pay separate fees for it.

Further. The chipset is called Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1. and in terms of performance, Realme GT Neo 5 is a full-fledged flagship, in AnTuTu it will score over a million parrots.

There is a lot of memory. From 8 to 16 GB of operational, from 256 to 1024 GB of permanent. Support for memory cards is not, well, okay.

Screen. Also extremely cool. Though it doesn't seem to be LTPO. But AMOLED. Diagonal 6.74″ (109 cm²). Resolution 1240×2772 (451 ppi). Ultra-high refresh rate up to 144Hz.

Cameras. 16 MP front, 50+8+2 MP rear.2 MP - proprietary microscope. 8 MP - standard wide-angle module. 50 MP - the main camera with a very serious Sony IMX890 sensor and optical stabilization. To the title of a full-fledged flagship, as usual, only a telephoto is missing.

Other. There is an NFC module, dual-band Wi-Fi, Type-C, an IR blaster. The fingerprint scanner is built into the screen.

Of the LTE bands of interest to us, only Band 20 is missing. There is a “Seven”.

Of the curious chips - appearance. More precisely, a rectangle on the back of the device that can glow in different colors.

Well, prices. For convenience - in the form of a plate.
