realme has added a new device to its GT series, this time focusing on gaming and entertainment.
Say hello to the realme GT 7T. It comes packed with some promising features, including a massive battery for extended screen time.
But aside from gaming, what else does this phone offer? Is it worth its price? Let’s find out.
Our review unit comes in the Icesense Blue colorway. The design is simple yet impressive. It features a smooth, matte-like finish that resists fingerprint smudges — a nice touch for everyday use.
The camera module also stands out with its reddish accent, complementing the look nicely. The phone feels solid and durable in hand, with a good grip that makes it comfortable to hold.
In terms of dimensions, it weighs in at 202g and has a thickness of 8.25mm.
Around the frame, you’ll find the volume rocker and a red power button on the right side, a speaker grille, microphone, and IR blaster on top, and at the bottom, the USB-C port, SIM tray, another speaker grille, and a microphone.
Despite its weight, the realme GT 7T looks great. The red accents around the camera module and power button complete the overall aesthetic. It also comes with an IP69 rating, adding to its durability.
The phone boasts a 6.78-inch 1.5K AMOLED display with a resolution of 1264 x 2780 pixels and a 120Hz refresh rate. Outdoor use is no issue thanks to its peak brightness of 6000 nits, and it’s protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 7i.
For entertainment, the screen delivers impressive quality. Colors are sharp and vibrant with excellent detail. The thin bezels also provide a more immersive viewing experience, and the viewing angles are solid with no noticeable color shifting.
Since this device is more focused on gaming, the camera setup is fairly simple. It has a dual-camera system with a 50MP main sensor and an 8MP ultra-wide, plus a 32MP selfie camera.
The rear camera captures vibrant images with a wide dynamic range and good detail. It avoids deep shadows and heavy blacks, and the sky in outdoor shots is processed well.

The selfie camera also delivers good results with true-to-life skin tones, nice sharpness, and solid detail.
For video, both front and rear cameras can shoot at up to 4K@30FPS (with Ultra Steady off).
Powering the realme GT 7T is the MediaTek Dimensity 8400 MAX, running on Android 15 with realme UI 6.0. Our review unit comes with 12GB RAM and 256GB storage, and the RAM can be expanded virtually by another 12GB.
Multitasking is smooth with no signs of lag. It handles multiple apps and productivity tasks with ease and delivers great performance for entertainment too.
We tested Zenless Zone Zero, a demanding game, and it ran smoothly even at low settings with 60FPS. Gameplay was fluid with no hiccups — even in combat scenarios.
Benchmark Results
The realme GT 7T is equipped with a massive 7000mAh battery, paired with 120W fast charging. In our video loop test, it lasted about 16 hours and 43 minutes.
Charging from 0% to 100% took only around 37 minutes. With this much battery capacity, you won’t have issues with screen time — it’s great for non-stop gaming and daily use.
The realme GT 7T is priced at PHP29,999 for the 12GB + 256GB variant.
Overall, for this price, it offers great value. You get a huge battery with ultra-fast charging, a premium and durable build, and solid performance.
Even though it’s primarily a gaming device, the camera still holds its own, making it a well-rounded smartphone.
Would we recommend it? Yes. If you’re upgrading from an older realme phone or looking for a performance-focused device, the realme GT 7T is a solid choice.
