Weekly poll results: the global pricing of the Realme GT 7 Pro will decide its fate | Infinium-tech

The Realme GT 7 Pro will enter its first overseas market, India, on Tuesday and it will be a make or break moment for the phone. The pricing in its homeland is great, but last week’s survey shows that people are concerned about international pricing, which will be higher than the ₹42,000/$505/€465 price we get with simple currency conversion.

The pricing issue was easily the most voted option in the poll – it was chosen by over a third of voters. That said, about a fifth are attracted to the phone and will take a closer look at it when it becomes available in their area.

Most people seem to be happy with the hardware, but there were complaints. For example, the models sold in India will have a smaller 5,800mAh battery instead of the 6,500mAh capacity of the Chinese models. This is largely a fallacy and an unfortunate consequence of the different regulations regarding battery-powered gadgets in different regions. The 8MP ultra-wide camera was also a common complaint.

A large section of voters are attracted towards other recent flagships, but most of them are waiting for the global launch like the Realme GT7 Pro, so it is hard to make price comparisons – we can only look at relative values Chinese prices.

Still, the GT could use some help to fend off the competition – more specifically, it needs to undercut the cost of most Snapdragon 8 Elite and Dimensity 9400 models to succeed. Join us next week to find out what pricing number Realme is planning to hit.
