e how the GT Neo 3T’s actual predecessor is the Neo2, while the GT Neo3 succeeded the GT Master.

As a successor, the GT Neo 3T needs to bring some sort of improvement over the last generation. And it does so in the form of charging tech. The Neo 3T is now capable of 80W SuperDart Charge, also found on the GT2 Pro and the standard version of the Neo3.
Another upgrade would be the software, as the Neo 3T launches with Realme UI 3.0 on top of Android 12. Then again, the Neo2 is upgradable to Android 12 as well.
So it makes us wonder, is there a place for a refreshed GT Neo2 in 2022 under a different name and a brand new paint job? We try to find out in the review, and as always, the price would play a huge role.
Unboxing the Realme GT Neo 3T
The handset comes in a relatively big retail box containing the usual user manuals and the corresponding 80W fast charging brick. The latter works over Realme’s SuperDart charging protocol, which is paired with a USB-C to USB-A cable.
