Realme GT 7 to launch in India soon: 5 things we already know about it
The Realme GT 7 is expected to launch in India very soon. After making its debut in China just last week, the company has teased the phone's arrival in India through its official social media channels. The company is positioning this phone, designed with gamers in mind. The phone promises to offer impressive performance, including six hours of stable 120 FPS gameplay in BGMI. Although the brand has not yet revealed the India launch date or price, early leaks and teasers have given us a good idea of what to expect. Here's everything we know so far about the upcoming Realme GT 7.advertisementIt will offer stable 120 FPS gaming for six hoursRealme has heavily focused on gaming performance with the GT 7. The brand claims the device can deliver up to six hours of smooth 120fps gameplay on BGMI. The phone has also been co-tested with Krafton, the developer behind BGMI, ensuring a well-optimised gaming experience.It will be powered by MediaTek's Dimensity 9400+ SoCLooking at the Chinese launch, we can expect the Realme GT 7 to feature the latest 3nm MediaTek Dimensity 9400+ chipset in India. This processor offers a high-performance CPU setup, including the Cortex-X925 prime core clocked at 3.73GHz. Paired with up to 16GB LPDDR5X RAM and up to 1TB UFS 4.0 storage (based on the Chinese model), users can expect fast speeds, smooth multitasking, and top-level gaming capabilities.A stunning, bright OLED display is expected
The Realme GT 7 is rumoured to sport a 6.78-inch flat OLED screen with a 1.5K resolution and a 144Hz refresh rate. It boasts a peak brightness of up to 6,500 nits and a 4,608Hz PWM dimming rate. Gamers are also going to appreciate the 340Hz touch sampling rate, which should ensure fast screen response times.Big battery with fast charging supportadvertisementKeeping the phone running is said to be a massive 7,200mAh battery, supported by 100W wired fast charging. Even with its large battery, the Realme GT 7 is expected to remain slim and lightweight, making it easy to carry around without feeling bulky in the pocket.Expected pricing and availabilityThe Realme GT 7 price in China starts at CNY 2,599 (roughly Rs 30,400) for the base 12GB RAM + 256GB storage variant, and goes up to CNY 3,799 (Rs 44,400) for the top-tier 16GB RAM + 1TB storage option. However, the Indian version of the phone could have only two or three variants, granted its predecessor — the Realme GT 6 — also came in three RAM and storage options: 8GB + 256GB, 12GB + 256GB and 16GB + 512GB. Considering the Realme GT 7 is a new model, its predecessor (GT 6) was priced between Rs 36,000 to Rs 40,000, and the GT 7 Pro price in India starts at Rs 54,999 — we can expect Realme to price the GT 7 somewhere in between Rs 40,000 to Rs 45,000. The phone is expected to launch in May.Of course, all of this is mere speculation, and Realme hasn't confirmed any of the details yet. Stay tuned to India Today Tech for all the latest updates on the Realme GT 7.

'Quick commerce ops not hurting beauty biz, its aiding personal care'
As Blinkit, Zepto, and Instamart expand aggressively into beauty and personal care, Nykaa is taking a slower, more curated approach. Its pilot, Nykaa Now, is live in select areas of Mumbai, New Delhi, and Bengaluru, with a deliberate focus on personal care rather than its core beauty range. Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads As vertical ecommerce players gear up to fight the quick commerce battle, Nykaa is taking a cautious approach toward the segment. After piloting quick-commerce platform Nykaa Now in select pin codes across Mumbai, Delhi and Bengaluru last year, the beauty and fashion etailer says its core beauty category isn't designed for 10-minute deliveries and much of the traction is coming from personal care products "Nearly 80% of what we sell is beauty and 20% is personal care. Personal care is what's really picking up on quick commerce," said Adwaita Nayar, cofounder of Nykaa and executive director and CEO of Nykaa Fashion. "Our beauty business' gross merchandise value (GMV) has grown at 30% year-on-year for the last four quarters. So I don't think we're seeing an impact of quick commerce. It's hard to know what growth would have looked like without it, but we're where we expected to be."Beauty is a discovery and inspiration-led category, where there is a lot of width and depth that needs to be serviced. The nature of quick commerce doesn't typically support that kind of assortment, Nayar told ET in an clarified that the Nykaa Now list is curated separately with a focus on personal care and gifting rather than mirroring its primary ecommerce catalogue. The cautious tone contrasts with how horizontal quick commerce platforms like Blinkit, Swiggy 's Instamart, and Zepto have aggressively expanded into newer categories such as electronics and fashion and beauty products. These companies have said beauty and personal care is fastest growing on their with the bigger players like Myntra, several vertical quick commerce startups have emerged, backed by venture capital including the likes of Slikk and Blip in the fashion and apparel did acknowledge a broader shift in delivery expectations. "It's not about 10 minutes, but people's expectations for delivery speed globally is just going up," she as discretionary spending slows in parts of India's consumer internet market, Nykaa's beauty business continues to grow at a healthy pace, Nayar said. FSN E-Commerce , Nykaa's parent company, posted a net profit of Rs 19 crore, almost double that reported in the year earlier. Operating revenue rose 23.6% year-on-year to Rs 2,016.7 crore, led by gains in beauty and personal care."We are aware of the broader slowdown. We benchmark ourselves against a lot of these companies and understand what their growth rates look like. But so far, Nykaa hasn't seen a similar impact," Nayar said."Based on our estimates, the online beauty and personal care market grew in the low 20s, while we grew in the high 20s."In contrast, the fashion vertical, which Nayar has led over the last few years, is growing at a slower pace, though it has outpaced overall industry growth at 12% year-on-year GMV growth in FY25."Actually, if you compare the net sales value (of beauty and fashion) it is a more apples-to-apples metric. The split is 75:25 in GMV terms and 80:20 in NSV."Her goal is not to make fashion bigger than beauty, but to build a strong and profitable business with a clearly defined said Nykaa Fashion's positioning remains distinct from fast-fashion players like Shein, which has re-entered India through Reliance Industries

Rapido cuts food delivery charges by half to counter Zomato, Swiggy
Ride-hailing app Rapido has finalised online food delivery partnership costs and terms with restaurants at nearly half the commissions from entrenched rivals Swiggy and Zomato , challenging the duopoly, people directly aware of the developments said. According to the agreed terms with industry body National Restaurants Association of India (NRAI), Rapido is expected to charge commissions in the range of 8-15% from restaurants, compared to 16-30% Zomato and Swiggy charge, the executives said. The partnership terms state Rapido will charge a fixed fee of Rs 25 on orders below Rs 400 and Rs 50 on orders over Rs 400, the people quoted earlier said. This translates to a range of 8-15% commissions from restaurants, compared to 16-30% charged by Zomato and Swiggy. Consumers will be able to place orders on the Rapido app where restaurants will be listed. "This will specially help small restaurants ," one of the executives mentioned above said. The pilot is expected to go live in June-end or first week of July, starting with Bengaluru . ETtech "We've been in discussion with Rapido over the last few months just the way we are working closely with ONDC. We are discussing a structure which is economically and democratically much more viable for restaurants to sustain," NRAI president Sagar Daryani said. He declined to comment on specific partner terms. "It's also very important for us to know our customers and the same has been candidly communicated to them," Daryani added. Allegations of data masking have been a core point of disagreement between restaurants and the large platforms. Discover the stories of your interest Blockchain 5 Stories Cyber-safety 7 Stories Fintech 9 Stories E-comm 9 Stories ML 8 Stories Edtech 6 Stories An email seeking comments from Rapido remained unanswered. The ride-hailing unicorn's bike-taxi riders currently have a select 'idle-time' arrangement with Swiggy to deliver food in select cities, but the arrangement is non-exclusive. The NRAI, which represents over 500,000 restaurants, had initiated a similar partnership with the government-backed ONDC in January, but the terms are still being ironed out amid slower traction. Recent months have seen multiple small restaurant owners calling out what they alleged are "steep charges" levied by Zomato and Swiggy. "Zomato is becoming unsustainable for small restaurant owners like us," Vandit Malik, founder, The Garlic Bread, wrote on Linkedin three weeks back. "To even be visible on the platform, I'm forced to spend Rs 30+ per order on ads. What's left? Pennies. Sometimes, not even that," he alleged. The owners of another NCR-based small restaurant, Saffroma, wrote on X last week, which went viral, that it was quitting Zomato alleging "zero payouts, mystery service charges and advertisements initiated without approval." The post has since been deleted.
