At the M7 Opening Ceremony on 9 January, realme presented the realme 15 Pro as the Official Gaming Phone of the M7 World Championship (M7), placing Indonesia in the spotlight as a global hub for gaming and esports. The announcement was made during the M Series' first-ever grand opening, where the device was formally introduced to 16 of the world's top Mobile Legends: Bang Bang (MLBB) teams. The partnership between realme and MOONTON Games reflects a shared commitment to competitive integrity as teams embark on their pursuit of the world title.
The largest device exchange showcase in M Series history
The M7 Opening Ceremony showcased 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—merging tradition with modern creativity.
Distinguished guest, Irene Umar, Vice Minister of Creative Economy, remarked: "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's role as a global technology partner came into focus. The realme 15 Pro was presented to all 16 Swiss Stage teams by realme representative, Krisva Angnieszca. 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 amongst those receiving the M7 Official Gaming Phone.
Connecting with youth through technology and esports
Embodying the "real passion never dies" esports spirit, realme will power the M7, reinforcing Indonesia's status as a global esports hub. The nation is home to the world's most passionate MLBB fanbase, with the MLBB Professional League (MPL) Indonesia recording over 100 million Hours Watched (HW) in each of its past five seasons, according to Esports Charts. This partnership between a globally-renowned technology brand and the world's most popular mobile esports title puts Indonesia in the international spotlight. By powering the M7's reach and fan experience, it aims to strengthen the esports ecosystem 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.
