Moto G67 Power and Realme P4 compared: which smartphone offers better value for money?

The Realme P4 offers significant battery life improvements over its predecessor. Motorola’s answer to the Realme P4 came in the form of Moto G67 Power (review), which drew several performance and camera cues from the G96 and G86 Power, while featuring a massive 7,000mAh battery. The Realme smartphone price in India starts at Rs 16,999 (6+128GB), while the G67 Power retails for Rs 15,999 (8+128GB) on Flipkart. Since both offer great value at a similar price, we compared them head-to-head to help you pick the ideal smartphone.

7,000mAh battery showdown

When it comes to offering long-lasting battery endurance, both Moto G67 Power and Realme P4 are comparable, thanks to their 7,000mAh batteries. Interestingly, the Motorola smartphone features a silicon-carbon battery, whereas the Realme P4 is equipped with a traditional lithium-ion cell.

To give a practical overview of how well the batteries perform, the Moto G67 Power lasted over two days, with 32 percent battery remaining during a casual usage period. In this specific runtime, we used the phone mostly on WiFi while carrying out activities like web browsing, Instagram scrolling, hours of Spotify streaming, four hours of watching YouTube videos, chatting, and more.

On the other hand, the Realme P4 outputted a battery runtime of over 17 hours in our in-house PCMark battery endurance test, the highest among the phones released this year under Rs 20,000. This test stimulates real-world tasks and applications to stress the battery.

However, when it comes to charging, the Realme P4 clearly has an edge thanks to its 80W charging support. It took us 59 minutes to juice up the Realme P4, while the Moto G67 Power takes around 78 minutes to charge from 20 to 100 percent. Realme has also bundled a bypass charging feature on the P4 for using the phone on charge without harming its battery.

LCD vs AMOLED display

The Moto G67 Power features a 6.7-inch IPS LCD full HD+ panel with a 120Hz refresh rate, while the Realme P4 opts for an AMOLED panel of the same size and resolution. In terms of real-world experience, the Realme P4 offers vibrant visuals and deeper blacks, which is a key characteristic of an AMOLED display. However, as noted in our P4 review, the display exhibits oversharpening, which is more evident on human skin tones.

The LCD panel of the G67 Power is as sharp as P4’s display, but pales in comparison when it comes to producing richer contrast tones and deeper blacks. This display is capped at 1,050 nits, making the screen less legible outdoors compared to the Realme P4 (1,600 nits high brightness).

Not to mention, the bezels surrounding the display of the Realme P4 are narrower compared to the G67 Power, giving the phone a more modern appearance from the front

Day-to-day and gaming performance

The Moto G67 Power runs on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 7s Gen 2, the chipmaker’s one of the most popular midrange chipsets as of late, while the Realme P4 bags the MediaTek Dimensity 7400 Ultra. If we take a look at the benchmark numbers, the P4 goes slightly ahead of the G67 Power. In day-to-day usage, both phones are snappy to operate, but the P4 feels a tad quicker to use due to its swift animations.

In gaming, the Realme P4 is the more skilled of the two due to its slightly better raw performance and ability to run certain games at 144FPS, such as CODM, thanks to frame interpolation. The Moto G67 Power is capped at the native 90FPS. Regardless, both phones handled the game in accordance with their hardware capabilities.

Both smartphones feature stereo output for immersive gameplay. However, the sound separation is not exactly 50:50. Furthermore, with the UFS 3.1 storage type on the Realme P4, it may ensure smoother daily performance and faster app installations in the long term compared to G67 Power’s UFS 2.2.

Superior details or dynamic range: you choose

Coming to optics, the Moto G67 Power has an upper hand in terms of hardware, but that’s not the complete story. In our review of the Moto G67 Power, the phone’s 50MP 1/2-inch LYT600 main sensor consistently delivered slightly less detail than the Realme P4’s 50MP 1/2.88-inch primary camera, both in daylight and low-light situations.

The colour tone consistency between the main and 8MP ultrawide lenses was also better on the Realme P4. The area where the Moto handset had an upper hand was in dynamic range and skin tones, be it in selfies or portrait mode. The P4 adds an unnecessary warm tone to the skin, and its selfies from the 16MP camera are on the softer side. The G67 Power maintains the exposure better and outputs realistic shots through all its lenses, including the 32MP front camera.

It’s also worth noting that the Moto G67 Power comes with the ability to record videos in 4K using the dual rear and front cameras, whereas the Realme P4 is limited to 1080p 30fps video recordings from the selfie camera.

Clean vs feature-rich software

When it comes to software, both handsets have different approaches. The Moto G67 Power gets a stock-Android-like interface in the form of Hello UI, while the Realme P4 runs on the highly customised Realme UI 6 software. With both software based on Android 16, users are sorted with homescreen and lockscreen personalisation as both allow changing icon shapes, fonts, accent colours, clock styles, and more.

It’s just that with every customisation function on offer, Realme UI goes a step ahead by bundling more options, such as a wider selection of lockscreen clocks, support for various first-party app icons, addition of more content in the sidebar, among other things. Personally, I missed the ‘Live Alerts’ feature of Realme UI on the G67 Power, which provides real-time info of the song, timer, or Zomato order status right in the status bar.

The Moto phone will receive just the Android 16 update, whereas the P4 is promised to get 3 OS upgrades, which include the freshly announced Android 16-based Realme UI 7.

Distinct design

Just like the software, the Moto G67 Power and Realme P4 have distinct rear designs, textures, and side profiles. For starters, the Moto handset flaunts a vegan leather back that provides a secure grip for holding the phone, whereas the Realme P4 opts for a traditional polycarbonate back panel. Furthermore, the P4 can be mistaken for an iPhone 17 Pro when viewed from a distance. In the case of the Moto G67 Power, its camera module resembles that of the G86 Power.

Now here’s a crucial aspect worth noting: despite both handsets packing a jumbo 7,000mAh battery, the Realme P4 weighs just 185g, while the G67 Powers tips the scales at 210g. In fact, the Moto handset is one of the heaviest phones I’ve experienced with a 7,000mAh battery, as both the OPPO K13 and Vivo T4 (7,300mAh) weigh less. While the P4 is lighter in the hand, it lacks a 3.5mm headphone jack, unlike the Moto G67 Power. I didn’t get the chance to utilise the jack, but users who prefer audio consumption through wired solutions can take full advantage of the headphone jack and maybe even charge the phone at the same time.

Which phone should you go for under Rs 17,000?

As stated in the intro, the Moto G67 Power, at Rs 15,999, is Rs 1,000 cheaper than the Realme P4. For its asking price, the Motorola smartphone provides a grippy textured rear panel that aids in the comfort of wielding the phone for hours, a crisp and reliable display, a set of cameras that output good dynamic range and natural skin tones, a headphone jack for latency-free audio, 4K front camera video recording, and a stock-like Android UI experience.

With the Realme P4, you do lose 2GB of RAM, but you gain several meaningful advantages. The phone offers a slimmer and lighter build, an AMOLED display with punchy colours (albeit it can show slight oversharpening in some scenarios), cameras that capture solid detail in both daytime and low-light conditions, and faster charging despite the same 7,000mAh battery capacity. The handset also delivers slightly better gaming performance than its counterpart, along with a feature-rich UI that includes extensive customisation options and promises longer OS update support.
