Realme is set to host an event on January 5 to unveil a new smartphone. The emphasis given to the improved flash charging speeds hints that it could be the Realme GT Neo 5. The unique selling point of the Realme GT series has been its fast charging speeds. To recall, the Realme GT Neo 3 has a variant that packs a 4,500mAh battery with support for 150W UltraDart Charging support. Rumours surrounding the upcoming Realme GT Neo 5 suggest that it might come with 240W fast charging support.
Realme's official Weibo handle shared a post today announcing that the company will host a launch event on January 5 at 2:30pm local time (12pm IST).
