| Fingerprint sensor | In-display | In-display |
| Water and dust resistance | IP66, IP68, IP69 | IP68, IP69 |
Both displays support a 120Hz refresh rate for smooth scrolling and supported gaming. The realme has the higher verified peak and high-brightness-mode figures. The POCO adds IP66 alongside IP68 and IP69 ratings.
→ Keep in mind: Peak brightness is reached only under specific conditions. Normal everyday screen brightness will usually be lower.
Performance and software
The POCO X7 Pro uses the Dimensity 8400 Ultra, while the realme GT 7T uses the Dimensity 8400-Max. Both use 4 nm manufacturing and all-big-core CPU designs.
| Spec | POCO X7 Pro | realme GT 7T |

| User interface | HyperOS 2 | realme UI |
| Storage type | UFS 4.0 | UFS 4.0 |
| Maximum storage | 256GB | 512GB |
The core CPU and GPU architecture is closely matched. However, benchmark results show different strengths depending on the workload. The realme records the higher AnTuTu and Geekbench single-core scores, while the POCO records the higher Geekbench multi-core score.
→ Buy this if: Choose based on more than the processor name. Cooling, software tuning, battery size, storage, and price can have a greater effect on the overall experience.
Camera features
Both phones use a 50MP main camera with optical image stabilisation and an 8MP ultra-wide camera, while the realme provides the higher-resolution 32MP front camera.
| Spec | POCO X7 Pro | realme GT 7T |
|---|
| Rear camera setup | Dual camera | Dual camera |
| Main camera | 50MP, OIS | 50MP, OIS |
| Ultra-wide camera | 8MP | 8MP |
| Telephoto camera | No | No |
| Front camera | 20MP | 32MP |
| Rear video recording | Up to 4K at 60 fps | Up to 4K |
| Optical image stabilisation | Yes | Yes |
| Dedicated optical zoom | No | No |
Their rear-camera hardware is closely matched on resolution. Both focus on main and ultra-wide photography rather than optical zoom. The realme's 32MP front camera provides more resolution than the POCO's 20MP sensor, which may be useful for selfies and video calls.
→ Pro tip: Neither model has a dedicated telephoto camera. If optical zoom is important for portraits, concerts, or distant subjects, consider that trade-off before buying.
Storage and connectivity
The POCO X7 Pro comes with 256GB storage, while the realme GT 7T adds a higher 512GB configuration.
| Spec | POCO X7 Pro | realme GT 7T |
|---|
| Storage options | 256GB | 256GB / 512GB |
| Expandable storage | No | No |
| Storage type | UFS 4.0 | UFS 4.0 |

| Bluetooth | Bluetooth 5.4 | Bluetooth 5.4 |
| GPS | Supported | Supported |
| NFC | Yes | Yes |
| USB | USB Type-C | USB Type-C |
| 3.5 mm headphone jack | No | No |
Neither smartphone supports expandable storage. The realme's 512GB configuration gives you more space for games, offline videos, and high-resolution photos.
→ Pro tip: The 256GB POCO is sufficient for many buyers, but the realme's 512GB option is worth considering if you keep several large games installed at once.
Battery and other features
The realme GT 7T has a larger 7,000 mAh battery with 120 W charging, while the POCO X7 Pro has a 6,550 mAh battery with 90 W charging.
