I wanted to design the phone for all people. Especially for positive, active and lively people."
 
Inspired by the most representative item in travel – suitcases, Naoto Fukasawa designed the smartphone in a "suitcase" shape, replicating the horizontal grid of a suitcase, allowing users to naturally think of travel. The use of low saturation and high tolerance gray color make people feel comfortable and tranquil just at a glance; the vegan leather material is soft like baby skin, bringing a great texture experience.
Naoto Fukasawa extracts inspiration from life, combines unconscious design with realme design, and brings a new "interesting" design. Every time people open and close their suitcases, they will recall the story of their travels, arousing in them the urge to travel and explore.
 
First ever 100% Vegan Leather
The realme GT Master Edition will feature the industry's unprecedented vegan leather design - concave vegan leather process. The concave vegan leather is the industry's first attempt, which is extremely difficult and demands high precision of processing. In order to achieve the most ideal effect, realme has adopted a more challenging method - the polymer material is turned into an initial three-dimensional shape through the injection molding process, and then uses the hot pressing process to synthesize the vegan leather with the substrate, finally achieving the integrated concave vegan leather shape.
Other Exciting Features

GTME is giving you the option to select between three refresh rate options 120Hz, 60Hz and auto select, by which the device will choose the best option according to the usage to maintain the battery life. The device is also equipped with a 65 Watt fast charger that can recharge your phone up to 96% in just 30 minutes.
 
The realme GT Master Edition is coming to spur stiff competition among flagship devices by offering the perfect combination of all specifications as well as the design that goes beyond the users’ satisfaction to be a real flagship killer. Stay tuned for the price reveal which will be announced during the online launch on December 6th via realme’s official platforms on social media.
