Last updated: 31/01/2026 The smartphone industry often prioritizes slim design over battery endurance, with most devices limited to around 5,000mAh. The Realme P4 Power breaks this pattern by packing a 10,001mAh battery, typically found in power banks, into a form factor that remains relatively practical for daily use. Positioned as a dedicated endurance device, the P4 Power is more than a phone with a large battery. With high speed reverse charging and Titan Battery technology, it is designed to function as a charging hub for other electronics, reflecting a shift in how the Power branding is applied from marketing terminology to a hardware driven utility. Battery Endurance and Real World Autonomy In the mid-range segment, “Power” often refers to a slight overclock of the processor or a marginally larger battery. On the Realme P4 Power, it signifies autonomy. In our testing, this device easily pushes through three days of moderate use on a single charge. It fundamentally changes the user’s relationship with the wall outlet; instead of a daily ritual, charging becomes a bi-weekly task. Furthermore, its ability to function as a 27W power bank for accessories or even other smartphones makes it a strategic tool for travelers and professionals who cannot afford downtime. Design and Build Quality Weight: 219g Thickness: 9.08mm Materials: Polycarbonate frame with “TransView” transparent design elements The most impressive feat of the P4 Power is its ergonomics. Typically, a 10,000mAh phone is synonymous with a “rugged brick” that is uncomfortable for daily use. However, by utilizing Silicon-Carbon (Si-C) battery technology, Realme has achieved a higher energy density, keeping the thickness at a reasonable 9.08mm. The “TransView” design features a transparent top section that reveals circuit-like patterns, giving it a mechanical, tech-forward aesthetic. The lower half uses a matte finish that provides a secure grip. While 219g is heavy compared to a standard 180g mid-ranger, it is balanced well and weighs less than some flagship “Ultra” models with half the battery capacity. Display Realme has equipped the P4 Power with a 6.8-inch 1.5K AMOLED panel that features a 144Hz refresh rate. Brightness: The headline figure is a 6,500-nit peak brightness, ensuring excellent legibility even under direct, harsh sunlight. Quality: The “4D Curve+” display offers punchy colors and deep blacks typical of high-end AMOLEDs. Response: Touch response is immediate, which, combined with the 144Hz rate, makes the UI feel extremely fluid. However, the quad-curved edges can occasionally lead to accidental palm touches during one-handed use. Performance and Hardware Under the hood, the device runs on the MediaTek Dimensity 7400 Ultra (4nm), paired with a dedicated HyperVision+ AI chip. Productivity: Multitasking is seamless, and the UFS 3.1 storage ensures quick app launches. Gaming: In sustained gaming tests (BGMI/Genshin Impact), the phone maintains stable frame rates without aggressive throttling. The large 4,613mm² vapor chamber effectively manages heat, though the phone does become warm during the third hour of continuous gaming. Efficiency: The chipset is tuned for efficiency rather than raw benchmarking scores, which helps in extending the already massive battery life.

The 10,001mAh Titan Battery sets a new benchmark for the segment. Endurance Expectations Video Playback: Up to 32 hours of continuous YouTube streaming. Gaming: Approximately 11.5 to 12 hours of high-intensity gaming (BGMI). Standby: Over 900 hours, meaning minimal drain when the phone is idle overnight. Charging Speeds Despite the capacity, the 80W SuperVOOC charging is efficient. It can reach a 50% charge in roughly 36 minutes. While this sounds slow compared to 240W systems, 50% of this battery (5,000mAh) is equivalent to a full charge on most other phones. The Power Bank Functionality The 27W wired reverse charging is a standout feature. In our testing, it successfully charged an iPhone 16 Pro to 50% in under 30 minutes. This makes the P4 Power a viable replacement for a dedicated power bank in your daily carry. Camera Performance The camera system is where the trade-offs for the large battery are most visible. It features a 50MP Sony IMX882 main sensor with OIS and an 8MP ultra-wide. Daylight: Photos are sharp with good dynamic range and natural color reproduction. Low-light: OIS helps keep shots stable, but noise begins to creep in as the light fades. It lacks the sophisticated night processing found in more camera-centric rivals. Video: Supports 4K at 30fps. Stability is decent for stationary or walking shots, but fast movement can result in some jitter. Software and Connectivity The device runs Realme UI 7.0 based on Android 16. Experience: The UI is snappy, though it comes with several pre-installed apps (bloatware) that require manual cleanup. Longevity: Realme promises 3 years of OS upgrades and 4 years of security patches. Extras: It includes an IR blaster, a fast on-screen fingerprint sensor, and dual stereo speakers. Notably, it carries IP69, IP68, and IP66 ratings, making it highly resistant to water and dust. Real-World Use Case The Realme P4 Power is built for a specific user. It is the ideal choice for: Heavy Gamers: Those who play for 5+ hours daily and don’t want to stay tethered to a wall. Outdoor Workers/Travelers: Professionals who spend long days away from power outlets. The “EDC” Minimalist: Users who want to stop carrying a separate power bank and charging cables for their secondary devices. Verdict The Realme P4 Power is built for one main purpose and it does that job well. It manages to fit a very large battery into the phone without making it uncomfortable to use, helped by improvements in silicon carbon battery technology. Strengths: Unrivaled 3-day battery life for most users. High-speed 27W reverse charging for other devices. Exceptionally bright 6,500-nit display. Robust IP69 durability rating. Trade-offs: Heavier than the average mid-ranger. Camera performance is average for its price point. Pre-installed software requires cleanup. The P4 Power isn’t trying to be the best all-rounder; it is trying to be the most reliable. If
