Realme is stepping up its battery game in a big way. After launching the Realme GT 7 and GT 7T with large battery packs, the company is now preparing to release a smartphone with an even bigger 7,500mAh battery. Here’s what we know.

Realme’s Upcoming Smartphone With a Big Battery

In a chat with AndroidHeadlines, Realme shared its future plans and confirmed that a new phone with a massive 7,500mAh battery is coming later this year. That’s larger than the already impressive batteries in the GT 7 series, which means Realme is clearly focusing on longer battery life, not just faster processors.

Just to recall, both smartphones in the GT 7 Series pack massive 7,000 mAh batteries with 120W charging support.

What’s interesting is this move isn’t just about one phone. Realme says it’s trying to carve out a new identity, one focused on elite battery performance, not just affordable pricing. While brands like Oppo and Vivo are pushing hard on camera and photography features, Realme seems to be making battery endurance its top priority.

There’s also a good chance that this 7,500mAh battery will show up in one of Realme’s flagship models. For reference, the Realme GT 7 Pro launched with a 6,500mAh battery. So, its likely successor, possibly named GT 8 Pro, could be the one to carry this huge battery.

Interestingly, while Realme is going big, others are going slim. Samsung just announced the ultra-thin Galaxy S25 Edge with a small 3,900mAh battery. And Apple is rumoured to be working on a similar ultra-slim model, the iPhone 17 Air.

With this upcoming launch, Realme is clearly positioning itself as the go-to brand for users who care most about battery life.

Realme recently revealed a prototype smartphone with a 10,000 mAh battery in an 8.5mm thick frame. It weighed just 215 g as the battery is reportedly a 10% silicon anode. The tech was achieved with an energy density of 887 Wh/L. Realme used a 23.4mm tall motherboard, which is the smallest in the Android world, in order to maximise the internal volume.
