Rumor | The Realme GT Master Edition will launch in Europe soon, starting at ~US$415
Realme made its Master Editions for 2021 official in China in late July 2021. Their new sub-series consists of new variants of its current Android 11-powered GT flagship with new rear panels finished in gray, white or "Aurora" gradient colorways and the Snapdragon 778G in place of the 888 top-end silicon.
There is also a GT Master Explorer Edition, which is more of a new phone with its curved 6.5-inch 120Hz AMOLED display and a 1100-nit peak brightness. It also has a Snapdragon 870 processor, as well as the "suitcase-effect" leather panel in gray or apricot.
The GT Master Explorer Edition also has the new 50MP Sony IMX766 sensor as a main camera, along with a 16MP ultrawide lens and a 2MP macro shooter. It goes for 2,799 yuan (US$433) for an 8GB RAM/128GB internal storage SKU, or 3,099 yuan ($480) for a top-end 12GB/256GB option, whereas the GT Master edition is set at 2,399 yuan ($371) for an 8GB/128GB SKU or 2,599 yuan ($402) for the same with double the storage.
However, according to 91Mobiles, it will have a new 6GB RAM/128GB option for its European launch. Realme is now said to debut the GT Master Edition at €349 ($413), or €399 ($472) to upgrade to an 8GB/256GB SKU. Then again, this new leak, reportedly courtesy of the leaker Sudanshu Ambhore, fails to mention the
Explorer Edition.
