• The realme Neo 7 launched today, featuring a 7,000mAh battery.
• Several other smartphone manufacturers are rumored to be including 7,000mAh batteries in their 2025 models.
• Other tips again suggest that realme is working on a device with an 8,000mAh battery.

With battery life being such a key factor in many people’s decisions when choosing a smartphone, manufacturers are working to improve the capacities of batteries without bulking up devices. Back in July, we reported on rumors that OnePlus and OPPO had plans for 7,000mAh batteries in upcoming devices. You can add another Chinese OEM to that list, which just launched its own contender.

The realme Neo 7 became available for pre-order in China today, due for release on December 16. Other than the 7,000mAh battery, the phone features a 6.78-inch LTPO OLED display with FHD+ resolution with a 120Hz refresh rate, a MediaTek Dimensity 9300 Plus chipset, and it offers up to 16GB of RAM and 1TB of storage.
