After launching its flagship Realme GT 2 Pro in India earlier this month, Realme quietly launched the non-Pro variant in the region last week. The regular Realme GT 2 is a minor step down from the flagship model, and it will go on sale in the region starting today.

The Realme GT 2 features Qualcomm's Snapdragon 888 chip, up to 12GB RAM, up to 256GB storage, a 6.62-inch FHD+ AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, and a 5,000mAh battery with 65W fast charging support. It also packs a decent triple camera setup on the back, and it's a great buy for anyone looking for a flagship experience at an affordable price. If you're in the market for such a phone, here's everything you need to know about the Realme GT 2.
