Introduction

The realme GT Neo 3 (RMX3561) in Nitro Blue arrived on my desk promising a compelling blend of speed, style, and affordability. This in-depth review covers my experience using the 8GB RAM/256GB storage International version with its impressive 80W fast charging. I’ve put it through its paces, from demanding games to everyday tasks, to provide you with a comprehensive look at this intriguing device.

Key Features

The GT Neo 3 boasts a stunning 6.7-inch AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, delivering vibrant visuals and smooth scrolling. The MediaTek Dimensity 8100 processor, coupled with 8GB of RAM, handles multitasking with ease. Its standout feature is undoubtedly the incredibly fast 80W charging, which significantly reduces downtime.

The triple rear camera system provides versatile shooting options, while the 16MP front-facing camera is suitable for video calls and selfies. The inclusion of a stainless steel vapor cooling system is a noteworthy addition for maintaining performance under heavy load. Android 12 provides a modern and intuitive user experience.

Performance & Benchmarks

In everyday use, the GT Neo 3 is incredibly responsive. Apps launch quickly, and multitasking is seamless. I played several graphically intensive games, and the device handled them remarkably well with minimal lag, thanks in part to the powerful Dimensity 8100 processor and the efficient cooling system. Even after extended gaming sessions, the phone remained comfortably cool. The 80W charging is truly a game-changer; a near-dead battery can be charged to 100% in under 35 minutes – a huge time saver.

While I didn’t conduct extensive benchmarking tests, the performance felt consistently impressive throughout my testing period. The smooth display and responsive interface contributed to an overall enjoyable user experience.
