Performance: Dimensity Powerhouse with UFS 3.1
The ‘P’ in P4x clearly stands for performance. Realme has prioritized a powerful chipset and fast storage, two factors often compromised in this price bracket.5
- Chipset: MediaTek Dimensity 7400 Ultra 5G (6nm).6 This octa-core processor is a segment standout, delivering fast and consistent performance.7 Realme claims an AnTuTu score of over 780,000, which is excellent for its price, ensuring smooth multitasking and handling of demanding games.8
- Storage Speed Upgrade: Crucially, the P4x features UFS 3.1 storage across all variants.9 This is a massive upgrade over the UFS 2.2 found in most competitors and guarantees significantly faster app loading, file transfers, and overall system responsiveness.10
- Cooling System: The device includes a 5300mm² VC (Vapour Chamber) FrostCore Cooling System.11 This VC technology is rare in this segment and is essential for sustained gaming, helping to maintain stable frame rates and keep the CPU temperature in check (around a 12$20^\circ\text{C}$ drop compared to non-VC systems).13
- Software: The phone runs on Realme UI 6.0 based on Android 15, promising a clean experience with enhanced AI features like AI Eraser for photo editing.14 Realme has committed to 2 years of OS updates and 3 years of security patches.15
Battery and Charging: Unmatched Endurance
The battery is the undisputed headline feature, offering longevity that few rivals can match.
- Capacity: A colossal 7,000mAh “Titan Battery” (rated capacity of 16$6,830\text{mAh}$).17 This large cell allows for up to two days of casual usage and extensive screen-on time even for heavy users (up to 9 hours of continuous video playback).18
- Wired Charging: Supports 45W Super Charging (charger included in the box).19 While not the fastest in absolute terms, it charges the massive battery from 1% to 100% in a respectable 90 minutes (1 hour 30 minutes).20
- Additional Features: Includes Bypass Charging (powering the phone directly while gaming to reduce heat) and Reverse Wired Charging (to charge other devices), transforming it into a temporary power bank.21

Display and Design
- Design Aesthetic: The P4x features an “Aerospace-inspired” design with a vertical pill-shaped camera module and a matte finish (available in Matte Silver, Elegant Pink, and Lake Green).22 It measures 23$8.39\text{mm}$ thick and weighs 24$208\text{g}$, which is expected given the large battery.25
- Display Panel: A large 6.72-inch Full HD+ (1080 x 2400) LCD display.26 While some competitors offer AMOLED, the P4x compensates with speed.
- Refresh Rate: An ultra-smooth 144Hz refresh rate, excellent for fluid scrolling and gaming.27
- Brightness: Features a “Sunlight Display” with up to 1000 nits Peak Brightness (HBM), ensuring adequate outdoor visibility.28
- Durability: The device comes with an IP64 rating for dust and splash resistance and features Armorshell™ Protection against drops up to 29$1.5\text{m}$.30
- Audio: Equipped with Dual Stereo Speakers and a 400% Volume Boost feature for louder audio in noisy environments.31
Camera: Functional and AI-Assisted
The camera setup is practical and relies heavily on software optimization rather than complex hardware additions.
| Sensor | Specification | Key Feature |
| Primary (Wide) | 50MP AI Camera $f/1.8$ | Good detail in well-lit conditions, supports 4K@30fps video recording. |
| Secondary | 2MP Mono Sensor $f/2.4$ | Used primarily for depth effects and monochrome shots. |
| Front Selfie | 8MP $f/2.0$ | Suitable for social media and video calls, with 1080p@30fps video. |
- AI Enhancements: The focus is on AI tools like AI Eraser (for removing photobombers), AI Motion Deblur, and AI Glare Remover, leveraging the Dimensity 7400 Ultra’s processing power.32
- Video: The ability to record 4K at 30fps on the main camera is a solid inclusion for the segment.33
Conclusion: Power for the People
The Realme P4x 5G is a highly focused smartphone.34 It makes a clear trade-off: opting for a fast LCD screen over an AMOLED panel and sticking to a basic dual-camera setup to pour resources into two critical areas—raw performance (Dimensity 7400 Ultra + UFS 3.1) and battery life (7,000mAh).35
For users in the sub-₹18,000 segment who prioritize multi-day endurance and smooth, sustained gaming performance above everything else, the P4x 5G is the benchmark device to beat.36
