Realme GT Neo2 price in China is RMB 2,499 (around Rs 28,500) for the base model with 8GB RAM and 128GB storage. The 8GB/256GB model costs RMB 2,699 (around Rs 30,700) and the high-end 12GB/256GB model is priced at RMB 2,999 (approx Rs 34,200). We can speculate the India price to be around Rs 30,000.

When will Realme GT Neo2 launch in India?

Realme GT Neo2 is expected to launch in India later this month, most probably during the upcoming Flipkart’s Big Billion Days sale. Considering the price gap and similar specifications, we advise you to hold on until the phone launches in India to decide between the OnePlus 9R and Realme GT Neo2.
