realme GT is called by the manufacturer the "flagship killer" with the assurance that it offers a sensational price-performance ratio. And indeed - it's an inexpensive way to buy a well-equipped phone with a top Qualcomm processor. In addition to Snapdragon 888, realme GT features fast LPDDR5 and UFS 3.1 memory types, although unfortunately the internal memory cannot be enlarged with a card, as is the case with many flagships. realme GT has something that is found less and less in flagships, namely a minijack and a fast charger included. The set also includes a silicone cover, and the display has a factory-made protective film. realme GT powers a 4500 mAh battery with 65 W charging.

The "flagship killer" also has Dolby Atmos stereo speakers and a good quality, flat Super AMOLED display with a diagonal of 6.43 inches and Full HD+ resolution and a refresh rate of 120 Hz. The touch panel is refreshed at a rate of 360 Hz, and in the corner of the screen matrix we find a hole for a 16-megapixel selfie camera (f/2.5). The rear camera is triple, with a main matrix of 64 Mpx (f/1.8) and an 8-megapixel module for wide-angle photos (f/2.3), with a field of view of 119 degrees. The set is complemented by a 2-megapixel macro camera (f/2.4).

Together with the new flagship, the product portfolio of the realme brand has expanded to include realme Watch 2 and Watch 2 Pro smart and the first Smart Care product from the TechLife line - realme TechLife Robot Vacuum. realme Watch 2 is the successor of last year's bestseller - the realme Watch 1 model. The watch is equipped with an IPS LCD display with a diagonal of 1.4" and a powerful 315 mAh battery. The device offers as many as 90 sport modes, so much more than the first generation. IP68 certified, monitors sleep, pulse and blood oxygen levels. Battery life on a single charge is priced at EUR 54.99. Together with the basic model, the realme Watch 2 Pro also debuts on the market, i.e. a variant with a diagonal screen. 1.75", which is equipped with a GPS module and an even larger 390 mAh battery. Provides up to 14 days of work on a single charge. The watch also has 90 sport modes on board and offers the same certificate of water resistance and dust resistance (IP68). Like the base model, it can measure sleep quality, heart rate and oxygen saturation. We will buy it for EUR 74.99.

The realme brand has also decided to implement a new, forward-looking 1+5+T strategy for the AiOT segment, the integral element of which will be the TechLife platform. This abbreviation can be deciphered as: 1 smartphone (the center of the AIoT system), 5 product categories (TWS, wearables, TV, smart speakers and laptops) and T for TechLife. The realme Link application will be the heart of the system. TechLife platform is the latest realme initiative open to external partners, including innovative startups. It will significantly expand the brand's product portfolio, at the same time giving the partners a chance to appear on the market thanks to the support of realme in sales channels and supply chains. TechLife will include three product categories: Smart Entertainment, Smart Care and Smart Connect. During the launch, two completely new products were also announced, which the brand intends to introduce to the market in the coming months. The first will be the realme Book (laptop) and the second will be the realme Pad (tablet).
