Realme is expanding its P4 family in India, and the next member scheduled to join the line up is the Realme P4x. After introducing the P4 and P4 Pro earlier this year, the brand is now preparing to unveil the P4x on December 4 at 12 PM local time in India, positioning it as the battery and gaming focused sibling in the series rather than a simple rehash. 
For buyers already eyeing the P4, the P4x is being framed as the option that trades some peak charging speed for a much larger battery and stronger emphasis on sustained performance over long sessions. It is less about chasing one headline spec and more about combining endurance, cooling and high refresh rate visuals into a single package.
Dimensity 7400 Ultra at the core
At the heart of the Realme P4x sits the Dimensity 7400 Ultra, a modern 5G chipset aimed at upper mid range devices. On paper it has more than enough power for everyday multitasking, social media, photography and plenty of gaming, while keeping thermals in check. Paired with Realme’s software tuning, users can expect smooth animations, quick app switching and solid 5G connectivity without the chip constantly hitting its limits. The company clearly wants the P4x to feel responsive out of the box and to stay that way even after you load it with apps and games.
7000mAh battery, 45W charging and improved cooling
The headline figure on the spec sheet is the huge 7000mAh battery, one of the biggest capacities you will find in a mainstream smartphone in this category. Realme is proudly calling the device a 7000mAh pioneer, and for once the marketing buzz has some substance behind it: this is the kind of capacity that can realistically push you through a full day and then some, even if you stream, game and browse heavily. Instead of chasing extreme numbers for the charger, the company caps wired charging at 45W, which looks conservative next to the 80W figures seen on some other models but is part of a deliberate trade off.
Realme appears to be pairing this giant cell with a larger vapour chamber and a more measured charging curve, reportedly moving from a cooling plate around 5300 square millimetres on earlier hardware to roughly 7000 square millimetres on the P4x. In theory that means lower temperatures during intensive gaming and during fast charging, plus better long term battery health. The phone also supports bypass charging, allowing it to draw power directly from the charger during long gaming marathons so that the battery does not heat up as much. For users who play a lot of competitive titles and keep their phones for several years, these details matter more than shaving a few minutes off the charge time on a spec sheet.
144Hz display and high FPS gaming focus
Gaming is the second big pillar of the P4x story. The device features a 144Hz high refresh rate display, putting it ahead of many rivals that still stop at 120Hz in this price range. Realme claims it is the only phone in its bracket capable of pushing BGMI up to 90 frames per second and Free Fire up to 120 frames per second, provided the games themselves and regional builds allow those unlocked modes. If those promises hold in real world use, competitive players will see smoother motion, quicker visual feedback and a clear advantage in fast paced firefights.
The panel itself is expected to be LCD rather than OLED, a choice that will divide opinion. Some users will miss the deep blacks and punchy contrast of AMOLED, but others will happily accept an LCD if it means higher refresh rates, potentially brighter sustained output and a more aggressive price tag. Combined with the big battery, the P4x is clearly tuned for long gaming sessions rather than chasing ultra thin bezels or the absolute highest contrast ratio.
Storage, RAM and everyday experience
On the storage front, the Realme P4x will offer up to 256GB of internal space, which is plenty for a mix of heavy games, offline videos, music and photos. The storage is based on UFS 2.2 according to early details, a standard that is not cutting edge but still fast enough for the majority of users, especially in this segment. App installs, game loading and file copies should feel quick enough that only spec obsessives will complain. Realme has not confirmed all RAM variants yet, but it is reasonable to expect multiple memory options that mirror the rest of the P4 family, giving buyers flexibility to pay more only if they truly need it.
Camera, design and the expected compromises
Where the P4x seems more conservative is the camera department. Early information points to a main sensor size around 1/2.88 inch, similar to what we have already seen in this series. That suggests Realme is not trying to turn this model into a photography flagship, and that expectations should be set accordingly. For users who mostly share photos on messaging apps and social platforms, and who rarely print or crop heavily, this hardware can still be perfectly adequate as long as the company does a good job with image processing, colour tuning and low light optimisation.
Design wise, the P4x follows the current Realme language: flat sides, a prominent rectangular camera island and bold colour accents that make the phone recognizable from across the room. The 7000mAh battery will inevitably add a few extra grams, but the squared edges and likely matte finish should help it sit more securely in the hand. In short, the P4x looks less like a radical redesign and more like a specialised spin on the P4, tuned for people who value stamina and gaming above all else.
Marketing buzzwords and the reality of the segment
Realme is already calling the P4x the device with the segment’s best battery and charging combination, and that is where some of the community criticism kicks in. The word segment is famously vague in smartphone marketing: brands slice the market by price, battery size, refresh rate or charger wattage until they can claim a win in some tiny corner. In practice, informed buyers should look past slogans and compare the hard numbers with rivals, paying attention to capacity, actual charge times, sustained frame rates and storage speeds rather than just reading poster claims. The P4x may well be a leader for heavy users in its bracket, but that status will ultimately be decided by independent testing, not taglines.
Realme Watch 5 joins the launch
Sharing the stage with the P4x on December 4 will be the Realme Watch 5, the brand’s latest affordable smartwatch for the Indian market. While its full spec sheet is covered elsewhere, Realme is clearly positioning it as a companion for P4 series phones, with long battery life, health tracking and notification mirroring at the core of the experience. For buyers who want an ecosystem feel without paying flagship money, the P4x and Watch 5 combo could be an appealing entry point.
All told, the Realme P4x looks like a phone built first and foremost for people who live on their screens, jump between social feeds and games all day, and refuse to carry a power bank. It sacrifices flashy camera upgrades and peak charging numbers so it can deliver a monster 7000mAh cell, a 144Hz display and tuned high frame rate gaming for titles that matter most in India. The final verdict will depend on the launch price and how well the software and thermals are optimised, but on paper the P4x is shaping up as one of the more interesting battery first mid range phones arriving this season.
