Realme GT 7

The Realme GT 7 and GT 7 Dream Edition smartphones were scheduled to receive the ColorOS 17 update in global markets on November 5. Now, a Realme GT 7 user has shared a few issues with the release candidate update, pointing to performance-related bugs and missing features.

Here’s more about the update.

Realme GT 7 – ColorOS 17 Release Candidate Issues Reported

As per the details shared by the user on the iQOO community page, their Realme GT 7 smartphone has received the ColorOS 17 release candidate update, and it is said to become slow and sluggish after a few hours of light usage, even when the device does not feel hot. The user has also reported a sharp rise in temperature after one hour of continuous gameplay, which is said to trigger aggressive thermal throttling and frame drops, making games unplayable.

The user who has shared the update has mentioned a few missing features too and as per which, AI Mind Pilot, AI Mind Space, AI Mind Suggest, AI Planner, and AI Photo Agent are said to be absent from the device’s settings.

On the visual side, the GT Mode activation animation, quick settings frosted glass panel blur effect, ice cube icon packs, and dynamic breathing dock have also been reported as missing. The sidebar feature allowing 12 apps to remain in the background is said to be unavailable in this release candidate build as well.

Speaking more, Realme is yet to respond to the above-mentioned issues, and these details are currently based on a single GT 7 user’s report. While the rollout schedule had mentioned November 5 for both the GT 7 and GT 7 Dream Edition, the user’s experience concerns the GT 7 only. Hopefully, these issues will be addressed before the stable update reaches more users.

Stay tuned for more updates.
