Realme GT 2 Pro To Ditch Conventional In-Display Fingerprint Scanner; Know The Latest Tech Used

Realme is experimenting with newer technology series with its upcoming GT 2 smartphone series. The brand has showcased three of the first technologies with which the upcoming flagship series will be equipped. The Master Edition of the GT 2 Pro has also surfaced courtesy of the company itself. Bit one of the most intriguing features would be the in-display fingerprint scanner which will serve more than just device security.

Realme GT 2 Pro In-Display Fingerprint Scanner Integrates This Useful Feature

The Realme GT 2 Pro’s in-display fingerprint scanner won’t be just functioning as a security layer. It will also double up as a health-centric feature. Chase Xu Qi, Realme China’s Chief Officer took to the Chinese microblogging website Weibo to showcase the technology used by the Realme GT 2 Pro’s in-display fingerprint scanner.

The screenshots shared hint at the presence of a Heart Rate Monitor. But that seems to be the impressions of the Heart Rate sensor along with some set of instructions. There is no confirmation via these screenshots that states a Heart Rate monitor embedded within the in-display fingerprint scanner.

However, tipster Digital Chat Station separately tipped the same feature on the upcoming Realme GT 2 Pro. According to the leakster, the Realme GT 2 Pro will not be using a conventional optical fingerprint scanner and would rather use new tech. Nevertheless, Realme is definitely raising the bar with the amount of technology used for the GT 2 series.

If indeed the Realme GT 2 Pro features a Heart Rate Monitor inside the in-display fingerprint scanner, it would be the first for any Android or even Apple iPhone model to date. We are not sure if Realme had a breakthrough in managing this tech and embedding it with the GT 2 Pro. But if this feature goes official, the company will surely grab all the headlines. Also, the GT 2 Pro would probably become one of the most advanced premium-range gaming handsets.

The rumor mill has already detailed all the specifications of the GT 2 Pro. Amongst all the features, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor is what most of the leaks have pointed at. You can read our previous coverage to know of all the leaked GT 2 Pro features.

Realme GT 2 Pro Master Edition Also In Works; Official Teaser Reveals First Look

Realme is making rattles with its upcoming flagship GT 2 smartphone lineup. Two models are expected in this series are the vanilla GT 2 and the GT 2 Pro. The latter has been leaked several times online and has also cleared multiple certifications ahead of its launch. Now, another variant in this series has been tipped by the company itself called the Realme GT 2 Pro Master Edition. The first look of the handset has been teased in the latest development. Following are the design changes which we will get to see:

Realme GT 2 Pro Master Edition Skin Model Renders Teased Officially

The Realme GT 2 Pro Master Edition leaked renders come directly via the brand itself. The teaser shows a thin bezel profile upfront which is slimmer than most of the recent launches by the company. The punch-hole is also tiny which is placed at the center-top. The overall handset has a slim profile which gives it a premium feel.

The teaser video shows a white shade where the back panel seems to have a plain texture. Just for reference, the first edition Realme GT Master Edition series features a suitcase-inspired design. This wouldn’t be the case with the upcoming Realme GT 2 Pro Master Edition. The company has just shared the first look of this special edition GT 2 Pro and not the hardware.

But one of the possibilities would be the presence of the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor. This chipset has been tipped for the Realme GT 2 Pro. The primary differences between both these models would only be clear once the brand shares some more features via teasers. We might also get to see a changed design rather than the hardware. But as mentioned above, we will have to wait for Realme to drop some more details via teasers.

Just to recap, the Realme GT 2 Pro recently bagged TENAA certification with a 6.78-inch QHD+ AMOLED display with an in-display fingerprint scanner. The display refresh rate is said to be 120Hz. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor powering the handset is said to be combined with up to 12GB RAM and 256GB storage options (LPPDR5 and UFS 3.1 respectively). The certification website also hinted at a 5,000 mAh battery combined with 65W fast charging.
