What Reviewers Agree On

USB-C finally arrives on a standard iPhone — universal charging with iPad/Mac/AirPods Pro (USB-C versions)
Dynamic Island trickles down from the 14 Pro — same software experience as the Pro models
48MP main camera from the 14 Pro brings 2x lossless zoom (sensor crop) and meaningful detail upgrade
Contoured aluminum frame with rounded edges — comfortable in-hand vs the boxier iPhone 12-14 design

Realme GT 7 Pro

What Reviewers Agree On

Battery life is class-leading — 6,500mAh delivers 17+ hours of active use
Display brightness at up to 6,500 nits peak is among the best ever tested
Snapdragon 8 Elite performance is outstanding for everyday tasks and gaming
120W charging is exceptionally fast — 50% in under 15 minutes
Ultrawide camera at 8MP is clearly the weakest link in the system

Deal Breakers

No wireless charging — a regression from the GT5 Pro
Only 3 OS updates versus 7 years from Samsung and Google
8MP ultrawide camera is embarrassingly weak for a phone at this price
Gets uncomfortably hot (47-48°C) under sustained heavy loads

NO Apple Intelligence support — A16 Bionic doesn't meet the iOS 18.1+ requirement; the only iPhone 15 family member excluded along with the Plus
USB-C caps at USB 2.0 (480Mbps) — Pro models get 10Gbps USB-C 3.0
Display stays at 60Hz with no ProMotion — feels meaningfully less smooth than the Pro models or any modern Android flagship
No telephoto lens (just main + ultrawide); the 2x option is sensor crop from 48MP, not optical
No Action Button — still has the traditional mute switch
Always-On Display is Pro-exclusive
