From recyclable packaging to removing the charger from the box, smartphone brands have lately taken various steps to being more environmentally friendly. Realme has taken things a step further by using a sustainable material to make the rear shell of its latest Realme GT 2 Pro.
In collaboration with designer Naoto Fukusawa, Realme’s design studio has used a bio-based polymer that mimics the feel of paper to make the back panel for the GT 2 models. The brand says that this polymer offers the same structural integrity, while saving up to 2kg CO2 per kilogram body weight.
As for specs, there’s a 6.7in 2K AMOLED display, the latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 under the hood, up to 12GB RAM and 512GB storage, and 5G connectivity. It also comes with triple cam setup (50MP+50MP+2MP) at the back, 5,000mAh battery with 65W fast charging, and it runs Android 12.
There’s also a standard Realme GT 2 model featuring a 6.62in FHD+ display, Snapdragon 888 chipset, up to 12GB RAM and 256GB storage, triple cam setup (50MP+8MP+2MP) at the back, 16MP selfie snapper, and a 5,000mAh battery.
