Realme GT 2 Pro is launching in India on April 7 after all

A couple of days ago, Realme's Indian branch announced that the Realme GT 2 Pro would launch in India on April 7. However, that tweet was deleted shortly, suggesting a change in plans. But that's not the case since Realme today announced that the GT 2 Pro will indeed debut in India on April 7.

The launch event will kick off at 12:30PM local time and will be live-streamed on Realme India's YouTube channel and Facebook page. We expected Realme to host an in-person launch event for its 2022 flagship since smartphone brands have resumed offline events in India, but Realme is seemingly not ready for that just yet.

Realme hasn't revealed if it will introduce the vanilla GT 2 alongside the Pro model on April 7 in India, but seeing how the previously deleted tweet included #realmeGT2Series and the new one doesn't, GT 2's Indian debut on April 7 looks unlikely.

Get ready for the World's First Sustainably Designed Smartphone, the #realmeGT2Pro!

Truly, #GreaterThanYouSee.

Launching at 12:30 PM, 7th April on our official channels
