The Realme GT 6T debuted in India last month, quickly followed by the recent launch of the Realme GT 6. The brand stated during the GT 6 launch event, “If a device isn’t a ‘flagship killer,’ we wouldn’t launch a GT device.” This is a bold claim for a smartphone series returning after a two-year hiatus.
In contrast, the Realme GT 6T is positioned as a mid-range smartphone designed to meet all fundamental requirements, from performance to battery life.
With a Rs 10,000 price gap between the base models of the two phones, the key question is: which one aligns better with your needs? More importantly, is the additional 10K justified for a flagship killer? Let’s explore these questions in this article.Realme GT 6T vs Realme GT 6: Price
The Realme GT 6T starts at Rs 30,999 for the model with 8GB RAM and 128GB of storage. The base model is Rs 10,000 more expensive. In contrast, the Realme GT 6T comes in four variants. The top-tier version costs Rs 39,999 and includes 12GB of RAM and 512GB of storage.
The Realme GT 6 offers a model equipped with 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage, priced at Rs 44,999. However, the 16GB RAM option for the Realme GT 6T is unavailable.
Thus, if having more RAM is your priority, the Realme GT 6 would be the better choice. Remember that opting for higher RAM also means a higher price. Realme GT 6T vs Realme GT 6: Design, Display
We received the Realme GT 6T and Realme GT 6 in the Fluid Silver colourway for our review. Design-wise, both phones look identical. The silver finish is not eye-catching and attracts fingerprints, making the devices look messy.
Both phones feature a distinctive silver paint patch that acts like a mirror, adding a reflective element to their design. Overall, there’s no discernible difference in the design of the two models.
The curved display on both devices gives them a premium feel, and the gentle curvature enhances the handling experience. They both sport a 6.78-inch LTPO AMOLED display. Fortunately, the curved edges do not cause accidental touches, which is a definite plus. Display Comparison
On Netflix, both phones support Widevine L1 but lack HDR functionality. It would have been beneficial if at least the Realme GT 6 supported HDR10.
Both devices have excellent display quality for multimedia consumption. However, the Realme GT 6’s display appears more vibrant than that of the GT 6T.
Both phones offer a remarkable peak brightness of 6000 nits. Whether used indoors or outdoors, they remain impressively bright.
