Realme GT Neo 2

The Realme GT Neo 3 has a slightly larger 6.7-inch screen compared to a 6.62-inch display on the GT Neo 2. The Snapdragon 870 chipset on the Neo 2 is replaced with the MediaTek Dimensity 8100 on the Neo 3. There’s also a change in the cameras. The 64MP primary camera is replaced with a 50MP primary lens. However, the other sensors are similar. There’s the same 16MP snapper on both phones.

The biggest change comes in the form of fast charging. Realme GT Neo 3 is the first phone to come with 150W fast charging. This is a significant improvement over the 65W speed on the GT Neo 2.
