Rumors about the device started to pop up at the beginning of January, but it was a long time coming, with the Chinese brand unveiling the tech way back during MWC 2022. Actually, the first hints that we’ll get a humongous 240W of fast charging power emerged back in 2021, when a 240W logo appeared through the Certified USB logo program.
Now the Realme GT Neo 5 is official, at least in China, and there are two versions of the phone. One sports the said record-breaking 240W wired fast charging tech, and the other comes with a more “modest” 150W charging and a bigger battery.
Realme GT Neo 5 specs
The 240W version boasts 16GB of RAM and either 256GB or 1TB of storage. Meanwhile, the 150W version has the option of 8GB, 12GB, or 16GB of RAM and only one memory option: 256GB.
The phone features a 6.74″ 10-bit AMOLED display with a high 144Hz refresh rate and a resolution of 2772 x 1240 pixels. The display also boasts 100% DCI-P3 coverage and a lightning-fast 1,500 Hz touch sampling rate.
The Realme GT Neo 5 240W comes with a 4,600mAh battery and a 20V/12A charger in the box. The 150W version sacrifices charging for battery capacity; it comes with a bigger 5,000mAh battery and a 20V/8A adapter.
Now to cite some numbers. The 240W charger can charge the phone to 20% in just 80 seconds, 50% in 4 minutes, and 100% in under 10 minutes. According to the company, 30 seconds of charging can provide up to 2 hours of talk time. The GT Neo 5 is also compatible with legacy VOOC and SuperVOOC chargers and can access their maximum charging power via the USB-C port.
The phones come in three colors: White, Black, and Purple, and also feature a unique RGB rectangle on the back, next to the camera system. Speaking of the camera, the Realme GT Neo 5 comes equipped with a 50MP, 1/1.56″ Sony IMX890 sensor, OIS, and a 6P lens with an f/1.9 aperture on its main camera.
