Realme Launches Limited Game of Thrones Edition With Stunning Design

Realme is gearing up to unveil the Realme 15 Pro 5G Game of Thrones Limited Edition, a themed variant of its mid-range smartphone, on October 8 at 2:30 p.m. IST. The launch event, hosted in collaboration with Warner Bros. Discovery and HBO, will stream live on Realme's official website, YouTube channel, and social media platforms, promising an immersive reveal at the Game of Thrones Studio Tour in Northern Ireland.

This special edition celebrates the iconic HBO series, which aired for eight seasons from 2011 to 2019, by infusing Westeros-inspired aesthetics into the device. While core specifications mirror the standard Realme 15 Pro 5G—launched in July—the edition introduces cosmetic enhancements and exclusive packaging, targeting fans of the fantasy epic that drew over 45 million viewers per episode at its peak.

Priced as a premium collectible, the Game of Thrones Edition is expected to command a slight markup over the base Realme 15 Pro 5G, starting at around Rs 31,999 for the 8GB RAM + 128GB storage variant and reaching Rs 38,999 for the 12GB + 512GB model. Industry trackers like Smartprix estimate the limited edition at Rs 34,999, reflecting added value from bespoke design elements.

Availability will follow shortly after launch via Realme's e-store, Flipkart, and major offline retailers, with sales likely commencing October 10. This pricing strategy positions it competitively in India's Rs 30,000-40,000 segment, where themed gadgets like Samsung's Galaxy S series collaborations have boosted sales by 20-30%, per Counterpoint Research data.

The handset's design draws heavily from Game of Thrones lore, featuring a sleek black-and-gold finish with nano-engraved motifs, including the three-headed dragon sigil of House Targaryen on the lower back and decorative lens rings around the triple-camera module. It retains the standard model's slim 7.86 mm profile and robust IP66/IP68/IP69 dust-water resistance, certified under MIL-STD-810H for durability.

The limited-edition gift box, styled after Daenerys Targaryen's Dragon Egg Wooden Box, includes a micro-replica of Westeros, an Iron Throne-inspired phone stand, and collectible house insignia cards for Houses Stark and Lannister. Software tweaks add "Ice and Fire" UI themes—custom interfaces evoking the Stark direwolf and Targaryen flames—enhancing personalisation without altering functionality.

Under the hood, the Realme 15 Pro 5G Game of Thrones Edition packs a Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 chipset, delivering efficient performance for gaming and multitasking, paired with up to 12GB LPDDR4X RAM and 512GB UFS 3.1 storage. The 6.8-inch 1.5K (1280x2800) AMOLED display boasts a 144Hz refresh rate, 2,500Hz touch sampling, and 6,500 nits peak brightness, shielded by Corning Gorilla Glass 7i. Cameras remain unchanged: a 50MP Sony IMX896 main sensor with OIS, a 50MP ultra-wide lens, and a 50MP front shooter, supported by AI tools like MagicGlow 2.0 for low-light enhancement and Motion Control for gesture-based captures. A 7,000mAh battery with 80W fast charging ensures all-day endurance, while Realme UI 6 on Android 15 promises three years of OS updates.

This fusion of pop culture and tech underscores Realme's youth-centric branding, potentially driving 15-20% higher initial sales in a market where licensed editions have surged 40% year-over-year, according to IDC reports.
