I thought nothing could beat these... But I gotta say...design innovation is something else with such new models Although most smartphones look pretty much the same nowadays
Still waiting for the GT2 Pro successors. So far no phone has been introduced to succeed that cause other than the hot chip, the phone was excellent 👌🏻. Hearing a GT5 Pro coming feels me with excitement.
Similar situation with me. I had Mi 11 Pro which is the best phone in every segment for me, but hot SD888 ruined the experience. Now I am looking for alternative that doesn't cost too much.
Good to see RealMe actually releasing a decent gaming phone on a fair pricing range for lower end consumers. Been eying on upgrading to a 1TB storage phone for a while now. Hopefully you'll do a 1 week / 1 month later review on this phone!
we need more of their model to go global, last i bought gt2 pro still last til now and its also from Lim Reviews lol, this is definitely a good upgrade with range from mid to high. but hoping more of their flagship can come to malaysia
@@LimReviews haha very understandable, I've been hoping my gt neo 2 randomly dies just to get this so I can justify spending money 😅 love at first sight
this phone looks really cool from the rgb light on the back to the mind-blowing charging speed but its a shame this phone aren't coming for the global market
Already ordered the Global version, unlocked from Lenovo store. Waiting for it to arrive. Cheap but powerful. Although I've heard of its downsides, they're not dealbreakers for me. Still a monster for gaming. 12gb 256gb.
It looks great. I'm highly looking forward to the day when RGB lights will be placed on the front of the phone & not at the back cos we all know people mostly place keep their phone with the screen facing up & not down.
Awesome, can you please compare battery timing of mid version? 5ooomah version with this 46oomah I want to see the difference, how both last during use.
i really hope this will be official in malaysia , we already miss the GT3 . I dont want to miss this. Also about the price , i think if they entered malaysia, it definitely gonna go slightly higher , my guess would be RM 2999 ... edit : wait you said we cant buy so its really not gonna come huh😭
You still can get from Shopee for very good price. Just RM300 more than China price which is still very low. But! Suggest not to as network compatibility may be an issue 😢
Just wondering, if you're going to get your hands on the Realme GT5 Pro? Seems to be best for buck flagship Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 phone out in China right now
That was the cheapest flagship with SD8G2 in the market. Definitely gonna buy it. The only concern me was the system and security updates. How long Realme can guarantee for that service?
Shout-out to the chinese manufacturer you really crushed it on this RealMe GT5. - 6.7 AMOLED screen - 144Hz refresh rate - 24GiG RAM - ITB internal storage - 240W fast charger (0-100% in 15mins) I thing this is a clear sign "to me" that most "RUclips Reviewers" are biased & being paid by American & Euro-based tech giants not to cover on (excellent) chinese products. I am amazed on how much I struggled to find proper in-depth english reviews on this phone, provided all the good specs that it posseses. Most of the famous reviewers dont have this phone on their channels I dont think its a coincidence 🤔.
I've been waiting for a Realme smartphone for a long time on the SnapDragon 8 Gen 2 processor. Whatever they called it. GT6, GT6 Pro. As a result, GT5 came out. I'm going to buy it on 11.11.
@@yomidesu3145 I don’t have a thermal sensor, so I rely only on the sensations of my fingers. For half an hour of playing Genshin Impact, I didn’t feel any heat. In comparison with Realme GT Master Explore Edition on the Snapdragon 870 processor. Which gets noticeably hot.
whats more insane is how cheap it is for that spec ! If i cant see any cons and bad thing about the phone, i will feels its too good to be true honesty.
Ram, charging speed and internal storage is really insane! How long does the battery take on a single charge? How about memory card slot. How much in terms of US dollars? Is it USB-C? Blessings to you, in Jesus name. Thank you.
Hi bro, great video. Can it support 5g and Volte in Malaysia? Last time I bought a china realme gt master explorer. It was hellhole cause don't support volte and 5g in MY. Thanks brother
Wow. Nice video. But in my opinion, this is better than the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra. Because it has a lot of features. Like faster charging, higher refresh rate, which is 144hz, and many more. It's also cheaper than the Samsung Galaxy S23 ultra. Samsung Galaxy is RM 5000, this one is highest I see is RM 2500. Which one is worth it. Let me know please
Hi, do you know if you will get notifications from WhatsApp and other third party apps on the AOD and use the back notification lights for them please?
They claim that the battery only degrades to 80% after 1600 charge cycle which is pretty much the standard cycle for a smartphone battery(30w+). Beside, the phone had 60 safety measurements so based on the previous phone that also had this tech. I will say that the battery health is pretty reliable.
Why ist so cheap i cant getit?? If this run on the same level of S23, Honor Magic5 pro, Pixel 8 pro, iPhone 14max pro, why ist so cheap, its confusing the price different between those phone and GT5
Definitely a good contender at that price. Not having n7 5g freq is a downside but no phone's perfect. Unfortunately no gorilla glass (or reputable screen protection tech) is a deal breaker. A 144hz screen may be quite difficult or expensive to replace. Just saying... could have replaced the IR blaster with a headphone jack. :|
@@kuimelody It may be. It's still flagship grade... (great performance, nice oled screen and good camera) I generally avoid those like a pest as I live outside of Asia (and outside of Realme warranty range) and just shipping one display across would take me a few weeks. Not sure how durable the display tech became, but I remember a Samsung phone's screen getting easily scratched by sand particles or keys. If you plan on getting it, a good quality screen protector + protective case combo is a must. But a small drop may still result in it becoming an expensive paper weight which may have been mitigated by Gorilla/Dragontrail glass. So If you get a good deal and can tolerate the risks.
Super innovative considering it's price. It's literally a bang for buck phone. 2400rm for the 1tb variant is equivalent to pixel 7a price on the Google store lol. That's pretty insane if you ask me.
Only problem about china set.. notification is the main issue and L3 level on netflix..is there solution for that..such a waste for great specification😢😢
Does it support 5G malaysia? do test with umobile home 5g. plan to buy to use it as a hotspot. hope it does have wifi 6 for hotspot too like poco f5 pro.

@yl266we don't know what band they can support 😔
What’s your opinion for the highest spec of Realme GT5 compare to 16GB Rog 6?which is better for gaming?
Prices in Europe will jump into the sky. And I think Realme will only sell the model with the 240 charger here in Europe.
I prefer Gt5 16g cos it has a fairly large battery. So when does it hit the Malaysian market?
Availble now
You can add 12GB of RAM (uses the ROM) on top of that 24. So you can have 36GB of RAM. I know that because I bought the phone recently.
Where did you buy it do you have shoppe or lazada link ?
@@doo7725 I bought it on AliExpress.
So main takeaway is it better then its competetor one plus 11 or not in both camera, gaming ,and os?
Disclaimer:
150watt version battery capacity = 5080mAh,
240watt version battery capacity = 4450mAh
and nobody has managed to charge the 240W faster than 17 minutes
Great to see excitement in a tech video. These days everything is boring but Realme is showing it can be interesting.
