Reasons to buy the Realme P4 Power
Long battery life
The Realme P4 Power’s 10,001mAh battery is the biggest you’ll see on any mainstream phone in India. The number itself is enough to raise expectations for an excellent battery life with the P4 Power. The smartphone can comfortably last for two full days without needing a charge, and that too on heavy usage. The usage involves 5G connectivity, Always-On Display enabled, screen staying on for long periods with 144Hz refresh rate, streaming shows, and more. With lighter usage, the Realme P4 Power can easily run for more than two days.
Realme now offers most of its new phones with at least 7,000mAh batteries, underlining the brand’s growing focus on endurance. The P4 Power is its most ambitious step yet, and a clear statement of where battery-centric smartphones are headed.
So, if battery is your top priority, then the Realme P4 Power will not disappoint in any way.
Vibrant and immersive display
The Realme P4 Power features a large 6.8-inch 1.5K AMOLED HyperGlow 4D Curve+ display paired with a 144Hz refresh rate. This display makes the phone perfect for entertainment, especially if you’re someone who likes bingeing shows. Even while just browsing through the phone, the P4 Power’s display feels very pleasing to use as it delivers a sharp, smooth, and fluid experience with punchy colours. You’ll find this experience across activities like watching Netflix or gaming. The curved display also adds to the overall experience, giving an immersive view.
The Realme P4 Power’s display is great for regular usage, multimedia, and gaming.
Reliable performance
The Realme P4 Power comes with the MediaTek Dimensity 7400 Ultra chipset with HyperVision+ AI chip. Its benchmark scores aren’t the best, but they’re still respectable and more than most phones in the segment. In day-to-day usage, the Realme P4 Power handles tasks smoothly, but we did notice some hiccups, such as the camera app occasionally getting stuck and certain apps taking longer than expected to load. These were noticeable issues, but nothing too significant to impact the overall performance.
The phone is great for gaming too, easily handling graphic-heavy titles like BGMI, COD Mobilem and MLBB. It also has good thermals and remained cool even after an hour-long gaming session.
Durable design
With the Realme P4 Power, you get IP66, IP68, and IP69 ratings for dust and water resistance. This is one of the best durability ratings you’ll get on a phone, barring some phones such as the Redmi Note 15 Pro that offer IP69K too. In addition to this, you get ArmorShellTM Protection and Corning Gorilla Glass on the front. The Realme P4 Power isn’t a rugged phone, but it’s still durable enough for outdoor use.
Reasons to skip the Realme P4 Power
Single bottom speaker
The Realme P4 Power has a single bottom speaker that can get extremely loud, thanks to its 400 percent UltraBoom high-volume audio. While this is great, the single-speaker sound is one-directional, so you’re not going to get that stereo speaker experience. Also, the audio can get easily muffled if your hands cover it, which can happen if you’re gaming or watching shows. This also leads to a noticeable drop in audio quality.
Slightly bulky
The Realme P4 Power impressively manages weight despite housing a large 10,001mAh battery. It weighs 219g, which is heavier than most phones but not too heavy either. For that, the phone is definitely commendable. But taking the overall form factor into consideration, the Realme P4 Power may feel bulky for some users. It’s slightly heavy and thick too, so users who prefer more handy phones may not like the P4 Power.
In conclusion, the Realme P4 Power is a definite pick for users who want a battery that takes really long to run out, an immersive display, reliable performance, and a durable design. But if your non-negotiables are stereo speakers and a lightweight design, then the Realme P4 Power is not for you.
