realme 15 Pro Takes Center Stage as Official Gaming Phone for M7 World Championship

At the M7 Opening Ceremony on 9 January 2026, realme pulled back the curtain on the realme 15 Pro as the Official Gaming Phone of the M7 World Championship, putting Indonesia squarely in the global esports spotlight. The announcement was made during the first-ever grand opening of the M Series, where the handset was formally introduced to 16 of the world's top Mobile Legends: Bang Bang teams. The partnership between realme and MOONTON Games reflects a shared commitment to competitive integrity as squads begin their pursuit of the world title.

A record-setting device exchange in the heart of MLBB Esports

The M7 Opening Ceremony did not hold back. Touted as the largest M Series opening production to date, the cinematic event highlighted Indonesia's cultural heritage while capturing the energy and spirit of MLBB Esports. It was a clear case of tradition meeting modern creativity, with all eyes on Jakarta as the global esports hub.

Irene Umar, Vice Minister of Creative Economy, summed up the moment: "The M7 places Indonesia at the centre of the global esports stage. For the next few weeks, the world will not only watch the best MLBB teams compete.... Through technology and competition, it allows a nation like Indonesia to be seen, heard, and celebrated by a global audience."

Against this backdrop, realme representative Krisva Angnieszca presented the realme 15 Pro to all 16 Swiss Stage teams. The device exchange showcase—the largest in M Series history—marked the beginning of the teams' quest for the M7 title on the home ground of MLBB Esports. Tournament favourites, including Alter Ego (AE), ONIC ID (ONIC), Team Liquid (TL), and Selangor Red Giants (SRG), were among those receiving the M7 Official Gaming Phone.

Why Indonesia? Passion meets technology

Indonesia has long been considered the heartbeat of MLBB fandom. According to Esports Charts, the MLBB Professional League Indonesia has recorded more than 100 million Hours Watched in each of its past five seasons. That level of engagement is no flash in the pan; it signals a deeply rooted esports culture that keeps fans coming back for more. By teaming up with realme, MOONTON Games appears ready to double down on that momentum and demonstrate how technology connects players, fans, and communities worldwide.

Adrian Cher, Global Head of Partnerships for MLBB Esports at MOONTON Games, said: "Partnering with realme goes beyond technology—it's about building the foundations for mobile esports to thrive and bringing the excitement directly to fans. By combining realme's cutting-edge devices with our global esports ecosystem, we're creating experiences that allow fans to engage with the game live, in front of them, and feel the energy of every moment. This partnership is a step toward in enhancing the esports experience for the entire MLBB community and shows how partnerships between gaming and technology can elevate the scene on a global scale."
