Verdict – Flagship Killer? Price Matters
The GT 6 brings nearly flagship hardware: stunning display, top-tier performance, flagship camera, wired charger in-box — rare in 2025. If launch pricing drops to ~₹34–35 k (with bank/exchange), then yes — it's a strong "flagship killer."
However, at ₹40–45 k it's premium mid-range level. Buyers weighing against OnePlus 12R or Redmi Note 14 Pro+ should compare brightness, charging, cooling, and included charger.
“Display, performance and cameras are good, but the missing charger and high price make it feel overpriced” :contentReference[oaicite:12]{index=12}
Pros & Cons
| Pros | Cons |

Verdict Summary
The Realme GT 6 nails key flagship elements: top-tier display, blazing performance, fast charging, and cooling. But to call it a truly disruptive “flagship killer,” launch pricing needs to align with the proposed ₹35k target. Right now, its features justify the ₹41–45k price, but aggressive offers could elevate it to the ultra-new value segment.
