Introduction

The Realme GT 6 and GT 6T mark the return of the GT series to international markets (and India in particular) after a hiatus of over two years. The 6T is the first 'T' model in the GT series' non-Neo lineup, where 'T' stands for "Top Performer." Despite that moniker, the 6T is actually positioned a bit below the regular GT 6 in terms of specs. Still, with a Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3 on board, we would say that the GT 6T deserves its title.

The Realme GT 6T definitely falls under the category of a modern "flagship killer". Realme has been particularly aggressive with the pricing on the 6T. In Europe, the phone is supposed to cost €550, but it did have an amazing introductory price of €400. Plus, Realme is working hard on an ongoing partnership with Amazon that includes price promos as well.

The Realme GT 6T is basically identical to the GT Neo6 SE but with notably faster 120W charging. Better still, it seems that Realme is bundling the GT 6T with a 120W charger for free in the box, which is a €30 value in most markets and a free pair of the Realme Buds Air 6 (€70). This applies to the 8/256GB model.

Unboxing

Our Realme GT 6T review unit arrived without a box or any accessories. However, we did have the opportunity to spend some time with an Indian unit back in May. That phone arrived in a black-colored two-piece cardboard box.

Normally, you can expect the phone to ships with a 120W SuperVOOC GaN charger in the box (EU market excluded). Also, there is a charging cable, a protective case for the phone, and a SIM ejector tool.
