To keep the device cool, Realme has included an 8-component cooling solution, including a vapor chamber and multiple layers of graphite for heat dissipation. Charging at such high speeds could be demanding on the device, but Realme has achieved a TUV Rheinland certification to confirm its safety. The GT Neo 5 also boasts NFC capabilities and runs on Android 13 with Realme UI 4.0 on top. It comes with a customizable RGB LED rectangle on the back that can act as a notification light for different apps and turns red when the battery is below 20%. The GT Neo 5 is available in White, Black, and Purple, with pricing starting from CNY2,499 ($368) for the 150W variant and CNY3,199 ($470) for the 240W version
